What did this year's Grammy gowns have in common?

Are you going to get a Brazilian butt-lift? I hope not.
According to the American Association of Plastic Surgeons, desire for bigger behinds in the past five years has led to the fastest-growing cosmetic procedure, the "Brazilian butt lift," in which fat is liposuctioned from other regions in the body to pad and "pop" the butt. "The biggest jump percentage is in butt enlargements," says Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Lawrence Koplin. "It's a significant monetary surgery now." Ninety-nine percent of women who are looking for butt augmentation are doing it by the fat-transfer procedure, notes Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Gabriel Chiu: "You can call it a twofer: You get to eliminate, via liposuction, a trouble area like love handles, belly, inner or outer thighs and put that 'junk in the trunk.' " For a price: The cost begins at $9,500, the procedure takes three to six hours with a minimum of 10 injections per cheek, and most Brazilian butt-lift patients must sleep on their stomachs and cannot sit down for two weeks.
