Cosmetic Surgeries for the Seasons

January 31, 2020

Most cosmetic surgeries, as well as their less invasive counterparts, come with some type of side effects, such as bruising or swelling. If you want to look your best for an upcoming event or want your face and body at their prime before summer, you will need to time your procedure accordingly. As you consider when to schedule your cosmetic surgery, it is good to consider which options are the most popular during each season.

Winter

Winter is often seen as the best time for cosmetic surgeries because your body is bundled up in more concealing clothes. Plus, you are usually better able to spend time at home resting. If you have time off over any of the major winter holidays, such as Christmas, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, or President’s Day, this might be ideal for you. In particular, consider a rhinoplasty, brow lift, laser treatment, or body contouring procedure during this time.

Spring

Spring is another good time to consider treatments as you begin to think about how you want your summer body to look. By having a procedure in April or May, you will be prepared for June weddings and summer vacations. If you get a spring break, this period could provide you with plenty of time to recover before heading back to school or work. Consider getting a facelift or breast implants in the spring.

Summer

Summer is typically seen as the least preferable time for cosmetic procedures. You are most likely planning on wearing less concealing clothes and will probably be out in the sun more now than at any other time of the year. Therefore, try to reserve summer for less invasive procedures, such as Botox or dermal fillers.

Fall

As you head back into a cooler season, it is time to start thinking about which procedures would be best for you. Choosing a cosmetic treatment in the fall will give you plenty of time to recover before holiday celebrations arrive.

Of course, these are not hard and fast rules, and you can use your own good judgment along with recommendations from your cosmetic surgeon as you make the best decisions for yourself.
