La buchona - Trading sex for cosmetic surgery in Mexico's narco capital
[BBC] The western Mexican state of Sinaloa is home to the country's most powerful and bloody drug cartel. The money it generates has left its imprint on the relationships between narcos and young women - and fuelled a local obsession with plastic surgery.

On the desk in her clinic in the city of Culiacan, Dr Rafaela Martinez Terrazas has a stack of applications from potential clients - women wanting surgery. Most of them ask for procedures associated with what has become known as the "narco-aesthetic".

"A smaller, defined waist... Wider hips with bigger buttocks... And if we're talking breasts, they're generally large," says Martinez.

A woman with this hyper-feminised, exaggerated silhouette is often referred to as la buchona in Mexico - especially if she has a taste for flashy, designer goods and has a narco lover.

"The average age of my patients is between 30 and 40. But very often much younger women come - even minors under 18," says the doctor.

"They compete with each other - who has the best body, or the tiniest waist."

Hardly anyone comes for the 'Meghan Rapinoe Washboard Special'.
