About ASAPS The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) was founded in 97, when cosmetic surgery was only beginning to be recognized as an important subspecialty of plastic surgery. Since then, education and research in cosmetic surgery have been the focus of ASAPS mission, enabling its members to pioneer major advances in the field. ASAPS membership in the United States is restricted to American Board of Plastic Surgery certified surgeons who meet additional requirements for clinical experience and continuing education in cosmetic surgery. However, ASAPS recognizes the contributions of physicians and surgeons in multiple specialties when compiling its national statistics on cosmetic surgery. ASAPS appreciates the support of these specialists in providing accurate data on the number of cosmetic procedures they perform each year. About ASAPS Statistics: The Cosmetic Surgery National Data Bank The Cosmetic Surgery National Data Bank, sponsored by the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), is the most comprehensive collection of data available on the number of surgical and nonsurgical cosmetic procedures performed in the United States. ASAPS is the only organization providing -year multi-specialty data on the 9 top cosmetic procedures. To collect the data, more than, surveys were sent to board-certified physicians and surgeons in the following specialties: Plastic Surgery, Otolaryngology, and Dermatology. Survey results were used to project national totals for the approximately, U.S. medical specialists most likely to perform several or more cosmetic procedures. The survey portion of this research has a standard error of +/-. percent at a 9 percent level of confidence.
