Utah has the nation’s sixth-highest number of plastic surgeons per capita. Some suggest that many graduates of the University of Utah’s top-ranked plastic surgery residency program stay in Utah because of the market. Statistics are collected by region, so there are no Utah-specific plastic surgery data. In fact, one recent survey that seems to contradict other studies and indicators found that Mormon women in Utah self-reported having cosmetic surgery at rates slightly lower than the national average. However, other data suggest cosmetic surgery is indeed a major consideration for many Utah women. For example, Utah is in the Mountain/Pacific region, which has the nation’s highest rates of cosmetic procedures, and the most popular procedure in the region is breast augmentation. RealSelf.com reported that Utah topped its list on searches for breast augmentation (53% above the national average), and the most common Google search for plastic surgery in Utah was “breast implants.”
