No. 9: Rochester, N.Y. New York's second largest economy edged out its first, New York City, when it came to plastic surgeons per capita. While the Big Apple had perhaps the highest number of plastic surgeons in the U.S. (we're talking more than 200 ASPS members and reportedly more than 500 plastic surgeons total), its per capita rate was low due to the Big Apple's enormous population. Rochester, with a fairly paltry list of at least 17 plastic surgeons, averages between seven and eight plastic surgeons per 100,000 people. Plus, it ranked No. 9 for most plastic surgeries in "Men's Health's" 2008 survey.

I knew Beverly Hills would be number one. It will probably stay number one forever!

Interesting, I wouldn't have guessed a few of those cities. But if you aren't comfortable in your bady and you can afford to have surgery, go for it.
