Iran Has the Highest Rate of Nose Jobs in the World
Iran's treatment of women has long been a contentious topic, and in 2022, major violence and protests culminated the issue. However, it is clear that this was not the case, as Iranian women's expectations have long been a source of contention. The country, which is known for having the highest rate of nose jobs anywhere in the world, was the subject of Oprah episodes on the prevalence of nose jobs as early as 2008.
Iran experienced 134, 766 nose jobs in 2011, or 180 per 100,000 people. This is around four times the rate of surgery conducted in the United States. The Iranian dress rule for women leaves them so heavily covered that facial features appear to pop out more as a result, which may be part of the explanation for this. A drive has been made to make the nose "perfect," by whatever standards one may determine that implies, because it is such a prominent aspect of the face.
The nose operation evolved into a status symbol at some point, and there are tales of women who continue to wear their bandages even after their noses have healed in order to give the impression that they have recently undergone surgery. Additionally, a nose operation isn't always necessary or desirable. A surgically altered nose is viewed as more desirable than a nose that would be regarded genetically perfect since it demonstrates that you come from a wealthy family. In other words, paying for the ideal nose is preferable to simply possessing one.
