American Society of Plastic Surgeons report: Surgery boom includes maxillofacial surgery: ASPS
Katherine E. Pfaff
The organization American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) reports in its annual survey that surgeries are up after a slow down last year. The pandemic slowed elective surgeries in 2020, however, interest has increased after lockdown, perhaps fueled by time spent in meeting platforms which reflect the viewer’s face.
During 2020, maxillofacial surgeries ranked fourth most popular with 256,085 procedures. The national survey included more than 1,000 women.
