“Which Country Has The Most Plastic Surgery?”

Statistics showing just which nations engage in the most cosmetic surgery demonstrate the rather impressive lead the likes of South Korea, Brazil and the US have over everyone else – something admittedly evident from looking at the less than natural wonders each of these nations is so blessed with.
The chart is adjusted for the relative population of each country, and based on UN and International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery data as assembled by The Economist, explaining why the USA’s clear lead in absolute numbers (3.3 million procedures in 2010) is overshadowed by the impressive per capita surgery rates some of the more vain nations enjoy.
Unsurprisingly, South Korea comes out on top, although even this may not reflect the full extent of Korea’s love of plastic surgery – survey data found as many as a fifth of the women in Seoul have been under the knife.
The popularity of different operations in each nation also varies dramatically; Brazil sees seven times more buttock enhancements than the average, and five times more vaginal alterations, whilst Greece sees ten times more penis enlargements – perhaps the better to further shaft German taxpayers, it might be thought.

In Brazil, the way your butt looks is important...
No Lebanon? This article is wrong
also the high # for korea has to do with minor surgeries like the double eye lid shit, etc. which seem so popular there.
interesting Japan is still in the TopTen at #8.
not as all natural girls as ppl might have thought, hmmm...
also seems like Asian countries it's less about boobs and ass.
well i always say, plastic surgery is like modern make-up. as long as they look good i could give a shit..
* cute girl with P surgery > ugly all natural girl *
lol @ the pasty, white person who is creating multiple accounts to rate up all the pro-japan comments in the hopes of gaining acceptance of the japanese people.
guess what, you'll always be a pasty, white person. no matter how many times you say banzai or kawaii, that won't change..

white people can be so cute, it makes my sides ache :3 :3
Your avatar pic makes me voice what you said in Momo's voice.... >.<
momo's voice is the sexiest voice.
Cool story, bro.
wasn't it already known that a good amount of the plastic surgeries being done in S. Korea are tourists wanting to get cheap and high quality surgery???
Yea, exactly what I was thinking. This shows how many procedures were operated in Korea, not how many Koreans got plastic surgery.
"survey data found as many as a fifth of the women in Seoul have been under the knife"
I didn't know that Seoul was another name for Korea? Srsly, it's just one city...
One person getting multiple surgeries would count as multiple surgeries.
That's an interesting vacation souvenir you propose...
"We should buy something lasting to remind us of this wonderful trip."
"How about we get you bigger breasts then???"
"Or do something about your flabby butt.."
Citation needed.
i got raped by a big, korean man when i was in middle schol, so i spend all my time on sankaku complex voting down comments in threads about korea to relieve my frustration.
i'm so mad.
i found the anon who was rejected by the cute, korean girl, lol
cute plastic ???
i found the anon who was rejected by the cute, korean girl in middle school, lol
i think there might be a white anon here who was raped by a big, korean man during his childhood. how sad..
or rejected by a cute, korean girl he had a crush on in middle schol, loll
Blahblahblah, white people, blahblah.
Korean dogeaters hate how they look.
End of story.
There's an awful lot of homosexual rape goin on in your posts. It's probably going on in your pants, too.
What the hell is wrong with you asian people??!
You got the nicest girls around, yet all you ever do is waste time shitting on each other!
Is this constant nagging a self-esteem problem or what?
(That said i find it a pity when asian girls do surgery to try to look more western)
I'm an Asian and I also do not know why O_o
Why ? They got more chances to hook up with some mobile wallets as well as getting jobs. No matter how many certificates you are, you can't get a job without a "good looking" face. It's in the book.
There are lots of ugly asian women.
(Also, maybe they are getting surgery to look more beautiful not more western?)
Breast enlargement is a crime.
everytime you downrate this comment, the japanese people are laughing at you =)
true, nothing makes the japanese people laugh more than a white person being pro-japan just so he can fit in. it's funny, because he gets rejected even more than other white people, and now he has no friends, japanese, white or otherwise, lol

im not white BTW .. :P
As a Greek all I can say is... wow! I wonder how these data were gathered and compiled, but I love your comment at the end :)
What is up with South Korea?
Availability. There are skincare clinics every block and you can get treatment for a tenth of the price. Surprisingly run by well certified people whom most yield pleasant results.
Basically said, anyone can find time and opportunity to do it on a whim and afford it from a child's allowance. Because of this its become a norm, nothing to really think twice about.
Whats weird here is just every day life elsewhere. Cultural shock!
>fly to Korea
>get cheap penis surgery
>fly to Japan
>become a JAVstar
>contract herpes
>retire

Stop trying to greentext, this isn't 4chan. You look like an idiot.
It's also because of the monopolising beauty standard that (sadly) has been established there: Double eyelids (therefore bigger eyes), "V-Lines" (Sharp jawlines), "small face" etc.
Many young Korean women go under the knive because of that standard and the social norms that seem to go with it; Social integrity (Everyone does it, so why not me, no big deal!), attracting men, being successful in job interviews, higher self-esteem...
Because of that, more and more of them start to look the same, and what I find sad about it is that they are ready to give up their own unique appearance and their true self-acceptance so easily.
They have to look special and beautiful. Just like everybody else.
Wait why was this rated down?
That or maybe many Korean women aren't all that pretty to begin with so they elect to get surgery.
Isn't it a given? As soon as I read the title, S.Korea came to mind.
All you have to do is watch a currently popular South Korean TV show or movie to see this phenomenon at work. All the women look exactly the same.
stop generalizing
It's not a generalization, since I've actually lived there. Just walking down the street you see so many identical women that it's scary.
Seeing many of comments that speak truth about korea and other nations being downvoted so much, i am, just maybe, guessing that there are many asspained people around these parts.
special mention to gook shits for 'grueowbgroebgowgroqjgwoqoqgn raging in front of their monitor trying to downvote all those comments.
Gooks, why are you so dimwitted?
i found the anon who was rejected by the korean girl in middle school, lol
Warning: Do not feed this troll

"special mention to gook shits for 'grueowbgroebgowgroqjgwoqoqgn raging in front of their monitor trying to downvote all those comments."
anon 15:07 was raging in front of his monitor and posted a comment in the hopes that he wasn't the only one CONFIRMED
The ironic thing about it is that sometimes they often get the opposite effect from the surgery rather than the desired effect.
sometimes they often.....WHAT!?
LOL...looks like it is school time for me!
they often screw up their appearance
