Dating can be tough at any age, but for the 20 million baby boomers dipping a toe into online dating sites, the stakes are high. Many single seniors in today’s dating world can be intimidated by swiping left or right for a love connection. To make finding a match a little easier, they’re turning to cosmetic procedures to help them put their best face forward. Many seniors in the Colleyville, Texas, area are calling Dr. Mayli Davis for cosmetic and aesthetic procedures to look as young as they feel.

The Boom in Single Boomers

In recent years, many baby boomers and other older demographics are getting divorced after years of marriage. But, they’re not ready to be single. They also aren’t ready to look older, and they don’t necessarily want to turn the clock back to look like they’re 20 again either. They just want to look as young and vibrant as they feel.

Minimally Invasive Procedures Are Popular

Many older singles are looking to minimally invasive procedures to get the look they want. Minimally invasive treatments such as dermal filler injections and Botox are increasing in popularity with seniors – and all demographics – to make small tweaks and changes on their lunch break.

But, They’re Not Saying No to Surgery

According to statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, of the nearly 50,000 more cosmetic procedures performed on seniors last year over 2017, the number of surgical procedures spiked. Procedures such as liposuction, hair transplantation and breast implant augmentation increased.

The 55-and-older demographic also accounted for two-thirds of the face-lift procedures and almost half of all the blepharoplasty eyelid-lift procedures. The blepharoplasty procedure is a procedure designed to remove excess skin and unwanted fat and tissue that can cause the eyelids to droop and the eyelids to sag.

More About Blepharoplasty

The blepharoplasty can be performed on both the upper and lower eyelids to help make the eyes look more youthful and alert. Although the procedure requires surgical incisions, the procedure is done in the office and takes less than an hour.

Recovery time from the blepharoplasty procedures takes just a few weeks, with some restrictions on activity after the procedure.
