plastic surgeries

Cosmetic surgery, which is commonly known as “plastic surgery,” is a rapidly growing medical field that uses modern techniques to improve people’s appearances. This diverse field covers a wide range of procedures, including facial rejuvenation, scar correction, and reconstructive surgeries. As the industry continues to evolve, different countries around the world are witnessing various preferences, trends, and motivations shaping their plastic surgery landscapes.

Countries with the Highest Plastic Surgery Rates: South Korea is a global leader in plastic surgeries per capita, with an industry worth $1.8 billion in 2023, making it the plastic surgery capital of the world. According to CEOWORLD magazine, it has 8.9 plastic surgeries per 1000 individuals. Cultural factors influence nearly 25% of women aged 19-29 to undergo procedures such as double eyelid surgery and rhinoplasty. The industry has a significant impact on South Korea’s economy, with around 52.7 thousand foreign patients attracted to the country in 2023.

Argentina and Brazil closely follow, showcasing a global interest in cosmetic enhancements. Colombia, Greece, and the United States also boast substantial numbers of plastic surgeries each year. This surge in demand is not only driven by the pursuit of aesthetic ideals but also by factors such as skilled surgeons and cost considerations, prompting individuals to seek procedures abroad.
