Ever wonder which countries have the greatest number of residents who have had plastic surgery? We did, so we visualized the data from ISAPS to create this data-visualization map! While we didn’t have data for every country, we were able to note some surprising insights. Did you know that Brazil has the second highest number of cosmetic surgeries performed per year? Chile, a near neighbor to Brazil, on the other hand, has many less plastic surgeries per year. Russing and Mexico had the 3rd and 4th highest numbers of surgeries per year, and South Africa had the lowest number out of this dataset.
