First, it was thigh gap laser treatment.
Then anal bleaching re-emerged, zombie-like, from the medical nightmares of Eighties porn stars to haunt suggestible modern women once again. Now if you don’t have your toes liposuctioned then what are you even doing with an Instagram account?
But if that little lot doesn’t make you want to lose your lunch, the latest surgery craze should do the trick.
Enter Venus Dimples.
For the uninitiated, these are small dents on either side of the lower spine, commonly seen on the completely normal bodies of totally average gals, you know, like international athletes, professional actors, fitness bloggers, Gigi, Miranda Kerr and Kendall Jenner.
In an effort to make their spines more super modelesque (or something) it appears that women are paying up to €5,700 to have a surgeon stick a cannula into their lower back, wiggle it around and suck out the fat, creating what Harley Street doctors are calling a ‘V spot’.
Doctors peddling the procedure claim it accentuates the lower back. In fact, they say, it’s the only way to really show off your bum lift or butt implants.
For something tipped as practically pain-free, Venus Dimple surgery takes six weeks to recover from, so you can make up your own mind about whether someone in the medical community might be telling porky pies about that part.
In the meantime, we’ll happily keep the fat on either side of our spines safely surrounding the tissue and vessels down there. You know, like they’re supposed to.
