    Brazilian butt lifts should be banned in the UK, MPs have said, as a report found a lack of regulation had led to a “wild west” of cosmetic procedures being carried out in garden sheds, hotel rooms and public toilets.

    If people want said procedure sufficiently, I suspect that one side effect of a ban might be a number of people simply crossing national borders to get the procedure performed in another country.

    Among the most popular destinations for cosmetic surgery include: Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Czech Republic, Dominican Republic, Egypt, Greece, Iran, India, Italy, Lebanon, Malaysia, Mexico, Poland, South Korea, Turkey and Thailand.[19][20]

    Or, you know, regulated so they’re safe here and people don’t just go to the wild west industry in other countries.
