10 Countries That Place a Premium On Cosmetic Surgery (5 of 6)

8. Greece

Beauty is something the Greeks have been obsessing about for thousands of years, certainly since Cleopatria’s time. Fast forward to today and very little has changed. As the Greek ladies see it, an economic recession is no excuse for not getting a larger set of breasts.

9. Mexico

Much like their cultural cousins in Colombia, Mexico puts a high premium on getting their girls into beauty pageants the moment they’ve learned how to breathe. In addition, a lot of Americans go south of the border to get cosmetic work done. In 2019 alone there were more than 580,000 plastic surgeries.
