Every year in February, ASPS releases their annual statistics reporting the latest trends in cosmetic and plastic surgery procedures, as indicated by their surgeon members. This year, facial surgeries and rejuvenation procedures recovered, seeing an \u201cabout face\u201d in the industry. As the economy makes a come-back, so did procedures of the face, including more invasive face-lift procedures, and less invasive procedures too. The most notable increase was with Botox and dermal fillers, but minimally invasive procedures of the face include facial contouring to sculpt facial features and remove excess fat. Laser-assisted liposculpting is a safe and effective way to refine facial features, especially around the lower jawline, chin and where the face meets the upper neck. Patients who want to improve these features seek out specialists who are experienced in laser-lipo and Smartlipo to help them achieve a more sculpted and slender facial profile.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_364\" style=\"width: 424px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.smartlipo.com\/oldblog\/facial-contouring-using-laser-assisted-liposuction\/reneezellwegerplasticsurgery2013\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-364\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-364\" class=\"size-full wp-image-364\" alt=\"Renee Zellweger's New Facial Profile Featured on FamousPlastic.net\" src=\"http:\/\/www.smartlipo.com\/oldblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/reneezellwegerplasticsurgery2013.jpg\" width=\"414\" height=\"336\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.smartlipo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/reneezellwegerplasticsurgery2013.jpg 687w, https:\/\/www.smartlipo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/reneezellwegerplasticsurgery2013-300x244.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.smartlipo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/reneezellwegerplasticsurgery2013-624x507.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 414px) 100vw, 414px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-364\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Renee Zellweger&#8217;s New Facial Profile Featured on FamousPlastic.net<\/p><\/div>\n<p>In a recent article featured on <a href=\"http:\/\/famousplastic.net\/2013\/02\/26\/what-happened-to-renee-zellwegers-face\/\">Famous Plastic<\/a> the author denoted how different Renee Zellweger looked at the Oscar ceremonies this year.
