Breast surgery remains most requested cosmetic procedure
British women are still favouring the classic hourglass figure, as more cosmetic surgery patients are choosing to undergo breast enlargements each year.
The Harley Medical Group has revealed that the number of women requesting a breast augmentation has risen by 9 per cent since this time last year, with many citing the curvy figures of celebrities as the reason behind their decision.
Celebrities such as Kelly Brook, Eva Mendes and Megan Fox are among the most frequently cited inspirations for surgery, with Kelly Brook’s new poster campaign proudly showing off her assets. According to Liz Dale, director at the Harley Medical Group, the majority of patients choose to increase their breasts by two cup sizes to achieve a natural result.
Ms Dale explained: “On the whole women want a natural, curvy look which ensures all their assets are in proportion. Most of the women we see are proud of their figures and through surgery want to achieve – or often regain – increased feelings of confidence and femininity by correcting a part of themselves they are not 100% happy with.”
Before undergoing any plastic surgery treatment, all patients are provided with consultations to ensure they are making the right decision. Ms Dale stated: “We always counsel our patients that cosmetic surgery will not transform them into their heroine (or hero); however it can be useful for a patient to come to us with a clear idea of the shape they are looking to achieve.”
