Bigger Bottoms the New Trend in Plastic Surgery

Butt enhancement helped boost cosmetic procedures in the United States by 3 percent last year, according to a new report.

Americans saddled with sagging, small or otherwise run-of-the-mill fannies underwent 11,505 buttock augmentations with fat grafting (up 15 percent from 2013), the American Society of Plastic Surgeons reported.

More than 3,500 buttocks were lifted (up 44 percent from the year before), according to a society news release.

And buttock implants — chosen by over 1,800 Americans — rocketed 98 percent over the previous year.

Plastic surgery among men also grew in popularity, the 2014 report noted.

“Male plastic surgery rates have significantly increased since 2000, and the notion that cosmetic procedures are just for women no longer exists,” society president Dr. Scot Glasberg said in the news release.

Some men wanted bigger chests: Plastic surgeons performed 1,054 pectoral implants (208 percent more than in 2013). Read more here.
