As we start Spring, perhaps you are considering a few cosmetic enhancements to get ready for Summer. If so, you are not alone – there were more than 9 million cosmetic procedures in 2011!
Statistics
The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) just released the 2011 data that shows:
- 8.4 million women had a cosmetic procedure
- 800,000 men had cosmetic procedures
- The total numbers are up 1% from 2010 and more than 121% since ASAPS started tracking numbers in 1997
These numbers are great to see and we here at Alpine Pharm must admit we’re not surprised – the use of SinEcch continues to increase every year, though at a rate that outpaces even the increase in procedures. So many patients are looking for a natural way to speed recovery and all natural, high potency Arnica is what doctors recommend for patients going in for all types of cosmetic procedures.
Were you one of the 9 million patients last year? We’d love to hear from you and share your Arnica story with visitors to our website. Click here to share your SinEcch story!
