I discovered additional information that may interest you.
According to The International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
ISAPS, more cosmetic plastic surgery operations are carried out in
the UK than any other European country, figures reveal.
Most plastic surgery operations (2000):
US 143,676
Brazil 66,090
UK 24,336
France 21,221
Mexico 16,957
Switzerland 16,062
The ISAPS said Europeans have a "more conservative attitude" towards
plastic surgery than their American counterparts for whom radical
procedures such as face lifts and buttock lifts are more commonplace.
In Turkey, Sweden and Japan more than 20% of the plastic surgery
patients are male.
