DEMAND FOR 'DESIGNER VAGINAS' IS SOARING
The ever-growing desire for a 'designer vagina' has soared by almost 50 per cent over the course of a year, figures suggested in February 2018.
Industry figures reveal a 45 per cent jump in the number of labiaplasties - which involves trimming back the inner lips, like Barbie - across the world.
Demand for 'designer vaginas' is soaring as women want to look like Barbie
Leading names in plastic surgery have said the vaginal surgery, one of the most sought-after, is officially the 'fastest growing procedure'.
Dr Renato Saltz, president of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS), told AFP that 'vaginal rejuvenation is the new trend'.
IMCAS figures also show spending on cosmetic surgery has jumped by eight per cent in a year, totalling £7.5 billion ($10.7bn).
Spending on equipment and products used for nips, tucks and lifts is only expected to increase by another nine per cent next year.
On the back of the IMCAS figures, Dr Saltz added the 'fastest growing procedure' was the labiaplasty, which 100,000 people underwent in 2015.
He said: 'The demand for cosmetic procedures is stronger than ever.'
Porn has repeatedly been blamed for the thousands of women going under the knife for a labiaplasty.
