Since 1992, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons® (ASPS®)
has been the source of cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery
statistical trends in the U.S., and this series represents nearly two
decades of procedural data. ASPS has partnered with Data Harbor
Solutions, a health care industry data management and technology
development company, to ensure objectivity in the gathering,
analysis and publication of its procedural statistics.
Since 2000, the report represents a universal and comprehensive
estimate of cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery procedures
performed by ASPS Member Surgeons as well as other
physicians most likely to perform plastic surgery procedures.
These physicians are all certified by American Board of Medical
Specialties (ABMS) recognized boards.
ABMS is the umbrella organization for the 24 approved medical
specialty boards in the United States. Established in 1933,
ABMS serves to provide information concerning issues involving
specialization and certification in medicine. The American Board of
Plastic Surgery® (ABPS®) represents physicians who are certified
by ABPS®, the only ABMS member board that certifies surgeons in
plastic surgery of the face and entire body.
ASPS offers the most comprehensive, reliable statistics on plastic
surgery procedures collected through the first online national
database for plastic surgery procedures, Tracking Operations and
Outcomes for Plastic SurgeonsSM (TOPSSM). This data is combined
with the annual survey sent to ABMS board-certified physicians.
All responses are aggregated and extrapolated to the entire
population of more than 24,000 physicians most likely to perform
cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery procedures, resulting
in the most accurate census available.
Validity
Results of the survey are based on a 95 percent confidence level
with a ±3.8 percent margin of error.
