While many of us have been adjusting to the new normal in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, interest in plastic surgery is still quite prominent. Now more than ever, people are taking time to reflect, and that allows for more headspace to consider what about each of us we’d like to change, what we’d like to feel more comfortable about.
COVID-19 has made a lot of people feel uncomfortable, and that’s led us to look at how we can increase our comfort and confidence. According to Google Trends, searches for cosmetic surgery terms like plastic surgery, liposuction, and breast augmentation did dip during the brief period of shutdowns in the United States. However, search queries have already rebounded, and inquires have actually increased more now than this time last year.

Though interest in cosmetic surgery is quite high, people may be concerned as to whether or not seeking cosmetic treatment is a safe thing to do during these challenging times.
Whether you are considering your first cosmetic surgery treatment or you’re interested in receiving another procedure, DeLozier Cosmetic Surgery Center adheres to high standards of health and safety for patients and staff. The commitment at DeLozier is to have safety and health at the forefront. That commitment ensures our patients experience a safe, COVID-free and germ-free environment where they can feel comfortable.
