Does this city make my butt look big?
Where you live has a lot to do with which cosmetic surgery you desire By Diane Mapes updated 7:34 a.m. CT, Tues., Feb. 2, 2010

Body slimming interest was higher in the South, as well, with 20 percent more searches for liposuction, tummy tucks and other fat-fighting procedures, whereas breast reduction surgery was tops in the Pacific Northwest — outpacing other regions by 67 percent.

What are the people in Washington, D.C., concerned about? Scar removal, it would appear, followed closely by straight teeth (Invisalign is the second most researched procedure in that area). When it comes to Houston and Atlanta, however, the problem lies further south, with the top slot going to lipodissolve (or mesotherapy), an experimental “fat-melting” technique used for small areas of localized fat, such as saddlebags.

In Miami, tummy tucks were the No. 1 procedure being investigated. As for Los Angeles? Not surprisingly, it was all about augmentation — lip augmentation, that is.
