“Gay men in Britain are fueling a surge in demand for plastic surgery, with a quarter admitting to having gone under the knife already. Despite the current economic crisis, the cosmetic surgery industry in Britain is booming, and a rise in demand for procedures such as nose jobs, liposuction and male breast reductions has been attributed to a surge in male requests. A new survey of 1,000 men, conducted by Gay Times, found that 22% of gay men had resorted to plastic surgery, while 69% claimed that they would like to.” Someone forward this to designer Thierry Mugler, whose augmented face you see to the left!
