Experts expect to see an increase in demand for non-surgical cosmetic treatments in the days and weeks prior to the holidays.
Many people "gift" themselves with procedures like Botox injections at this time of year, says the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS).
Secretary Kevin Hancock is certain that he will see a number of patients who identify their non-surgical cosmetic treatments as a special gift to themselves.
It is likely that people want to attend their holiday parties looking their best. Mr. Hancock says that Botox injections are the most common procedure.
he procedure is relatively painless and takes little time from the patient’s busy schedule, features which add to its popularity.
The weeks just before the start of the summer season are also especially busy for cosmetic surgeons as people try to prepare for time in the sun.
