In case anyone was wondering whether or not the plastic surgery obsession was just an American thing, it was confirmed this week by the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery that the folks across the pond are equally has addicted. The British newspaper, The Telegraph, reported earlier in the week that the BAAPS released their plastic surgery statistics for 2010 with many procedures showing significant increases from 2009.
One of the most dramatic increases was the number of Breast Augmentations done on English soil last year. BAAPS reported 9,430 cases in 2010, up 10% from the previous year. British plastic surgeons are attributing this in large part to Mad Men actress Christina Hendricks curvaceous figure. The Telegraph quotes a sources as saying, "Christina Hendricks is gorgeous, and the hourglass figure is definitely back in fashion. Let's just say that heroin chic isn't the big thing at the moment." Poor Kate Moss. It will be interesting to see if she shows up in the tabloids with double d's in the near future...
