When you’re engaged and planning your wedding, you wouldn’t typically think of cosmetic surgery as part of your wedding to-do list, right? However, there is a growing trend these days of brides and grooms getting plastic surgery just to look extra ravishing on their big day.
This would have been unthinkable decades past, but in this generation where looking good through cosmetic surgery is widely acceptable and more affordable, soon-to-be-wed couples and even their families may consider plastic surgery to feel more confident on the wedding day.
The following are some of the trending plastic surgeries tied to wedding preparations this 2021:
1. Skincare Options
For wedding preparations, topical therapies such as retinol, peels, lasers, light treatments, and facials to improve skin quality are popular.
If you’re getting married, it might take months for skincare to work and three weeks for more harsh treatments. So, make sure you give yourself ample time to get treatments and heal from the process.
2. Facial Surgeries
Because eyelid skin is the body’s thinnest and most sensitive skin, eyelid surgery is one of the “first stop” face treatments performed rapidly. Refreshing your eyes may revitalize your whole appearance and mood, giving you more vitality and enthusiasm. Rhinoplasty is another popular face surgery especially because women today are very concerned about being judged in their wedding pictures by hundreds or even thousands of people through social media.
The bride’s parents may pursue facelift and neck lift operations, which take about four to six weeks of recovery. Mini lift treatments can be used to lift the brow or jawline, therefore minimizing jowls.
3. Dermal Fillers and Botox
Dermal fillers are ideal for single-stage or multistage treatments to improve the volume and lift of the face. Fillers can assist in refreshing and revitalizing the face in a non-obtrusive fashion.
Fillers are commonly used in the lower lid or tear trough area, the cheeks, lips, and wrinkles between the nose and lip and around the mouth.
4. Dysport vs. Botox
Many patients focus on wrinkle reduction when preparing for a wedding, particularly around the eyes. Botox and Dysport are injectables that temporarily diminish or erase face lines and wrinkles by inhibiting nerve impulses to the targeted facial muscles.
5. Body Surgical Procedures
Liposuction is one of the most common treatments, producing rapid contouring results in the arms, chest, and legs. Significant procedures like tummy tucks and body lifts provide excellent results but need planning in advance to get to the wedding day fully recovered.
A mini-tummy tuck may be a viable choice if your skin laxity and muscular weakness are limited to the area below your navel. The scar will be shorter, and there will be no need for an incision around the navel. A mini tummy tuck does not require significant bedrest.

Breast Lifts, Augmentation, and Reduction
If a bride has been thinking about getting breast surgery even before the wedding, the upcoming wedding may push her to make that desire into reality. Some popular breast surgeries include breast lifts, breast augmentation, and breast reduction.
Conclusion
With cosmetic surgery, a person’s looks, self-esteem, and confidence can be improved significantly. People considering cosmetic operations as part of their wedding planning have risen by 30 percent in the past year alone.
Some treatments are temporary, while others involve permanent lifestyle change and long-term investments.
