These are the stats from 2013 from the ASPS 2013 National Clearinghouse of Platic Surgery Statistics. 
The top 5 surgical procedures are
- Breast augmentation
- Rhinoplasty (nose surgery)
- Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)
- Liposuction
- Facelift
For those of you who guessed my quiz, you were very good!
What is interesting is these statistics are slightly different than in 2000. We have seen a decline in the numbers of blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty, and liposuction, and a rise in the number of breast augmentations.
Overall these procedures were the top 5 back in 2000. There was an overall decline in the rate of surgical procedures done since 2000, likely reflecting the increase in nonsurgical techniques like fillers, lasers, and peels, and also perhaps reflecting a change in the economy.
