New craze: The Pippa Butt Lift

Los Angeles - Pippa Middleton has inspired a wave of women to undergo "bottom lift" cosmetic surgery procedures.

The 27-year-old beauty – the sister of Britain's Duchess Catherine – caused a worldwide stir with the silhouette-enhancing Sarah Burton dress she wore for her sibling's wedding to Prince William in April, and has since become the "new queen of booty".

US-based plastic surgeon Dr Constantino Mendieta told Fox News: "The latest craze here in the US and all over the world is to get the 'Pippa Butt Lift'. Ever since the royal wedding, Pippa Middleton has become the new queen of the booty.

"She opens the doors to those who did not know you could have a small, shapely and perky backside without the large size. Patients want to be more proportionate with buttocks that look natural and sexy and go with the rest of their body."

Meanwhile, plastic surgeon Richard W Fleming thinks Pippa's worldwide appeal goes beyond her shapely bottom, as the sisters represent the "epitome of youth".

He said: "The Middleton girls are fresh and natural looking, they are the epitome of youth, and they're happy people - everything about their physical presence is happy and natural.

"We should all be so lucky to have their happiness, physical features and everything that goes with it."
