Liposuction and rhinoplasty most popular procedures
Considering how obsessed some women appear to be about their breast size, you would expect that breast augmentation will be the most popular procedure. But that is not the case. The two most popular procedures (according to latest 2004 statistics from the ASPS) are liposuction and nose-reshaping or rhinoplasty. Breast augmentation comes at third rank.
According to another survey by Allure Magazine, 22% of the women surveyed have given consideration to a tummy tuck, although not one of the women interviewed have ever actually had a tummy tuck or liposuction. Less than 10% have ever had any type of cosmetic surgery-including permanent hair removal or facial peels.
While this may seem somewhat counter-intuitive, it is also important to remember that we also have a serious weight problem in America. Two out of three American women are obese or overweight and that is why plastic surgery is often used to get rid of the excess fat first and only then women want to look at more “elective” procedures like breast implants.
