Indians also fl ocked in hordes to get a better looking nose, with 23,617 people undergoing a rhinoplasty.

Around 15,000 people got an abdominoplasty or a 'tummy tuck' while nearly one in 10 cosmetic surgeries among Indians were also to rectify sagging eyebrows, drooping upper lids and bags under the eyes with over 20,000 people going for a Blepharoplasty.

A butt job was also gaining popularity with 2913 women either getting a buttock lift or a buttock augmentation. Botox was the commonest non-surgical procedure among Indians with 97,611 people getting the injection to get the shine back on their wrinkled skin,

India was however home to only 3% of the world's cosmetic surgeons — 955 out of 31,894. US led the pack with 5950 plastic surgeons followed by Brazil 5024, China 2000, Japan 1831 and Mexico 1518 surgeons.
