"It used to be that gray hair and a few wrinkles were an asset, for they meant you were wiser and more experienced," explains Eric Hubli, M.D., a plastic surgeon at Lewis-Gale Clinic.

While body and breast contouring are leading the way, Dr. Hubli says that the eyes still remain a focus for many who are seeking cosmetic surgery to rejuvenate their looks.
"As a person ages, the eyelids and eyebrows begin to droop, which can give off a tired and less attentive look," explains Dr. Hubli.
While cosmetic surgery, especially these three procedures, is getting the attention of many people, it's important to remember that when considering any of these options, you should look for a surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
"Board certified plastic surgeons are specifically trained in the latest procedures and safety measures and can ensure that the change you are considering is the right one for you," Dr. Hubli emphasizes.
A study of the baby boomer generation revealed that between the years 1946 and 1964, hotdog and potato chip production doubled, sales of lawnmowers tripled, and the number of little league baseball teams went from 776 to 5,700.In the coming years, expect baby boomers to take plastic surgery demands to a new level as the race to regain that youthful look continues.
"Modern medicine is helping people live longer, healthier lives," concludes Dr. Hubli.
