Liposuction is the single most popular plastic surgery procedure in the United States, according to the 2024 ASPS Plastic Surgery Statistics Report. And the patients most likely to get liposuction include Gen Xers in their mid-40s to mid-50s, who accounted for more than 45 percent of all liposuction procedures in 2024, along with elder Millennials.
