Report Says Breast Surgery Still Top Of The Ops

The Harley Medical Group has reported a rise in breast augmentation surgery, which maintains its title as the most popular cosmetic surgery procedure requested by women. The increase has been driven by a boom in post baby surgery with mums now accounting for 60% of all breast augmentation patients.

Angela Fry, 38, from Maidenhead had a breast augmentation after she had her fourth child. She said: “After each birth my shape changed dramatically and my breasts sagged and lost their shape completely. For me, having a breast augmentation wasn’t about getting bigger breasts but getting them back to the shape and size that was right for my figure. Having the surgery has made me feel more feminine and given me much more confidence in myself.”

Breast augmentation surgery was first performed in 1895 and is today the most popular surgical cosmetic procedure for women. During the procedure an incision is made in the crease of the underside of the breast and the implant is inserted into a pocket created by the surgeon. The result is fuller and more evenly shaped breasts. The treatment takes around one hour to perform and a general anaesthetic will be administered to the patient.

Breast reduction is popular surgical option for women wanting to achieve more proportionally sized breasts Breast reduction surgery usually takes three hours to complete, depending on the size of the breasts. The operation is carried out under general anaesthetic, and patients stay in hospital for one to two nights. Breast reduction patients are required to wear a supportive bra for up to three months to keep the breasts well supported whilst healing takes place and ensure the best possible results.

Increasing Interest In Macrolane Procedures Reveals Surgicare

Surgicare, one of the leading cosmetic surgery providers in the UK, has revealed a growing interest by Brits in its Marcolane procedures.

March 2009 saw the highest number of enquiries and consultations about Marcolane since Surgicare began offering the service in April the previous year.

Macrolane is a non-surgical procedure that can help with breast reshaping or breast enlargement. The procedure consists of an injection and generally takes less than two hours to complete, with no need for an overnight stay. The results of Macrolane are instantaneous and can last for up to 18 months.

The number of enquiries in March rose by 111% on the previous month’s figure and 78% on the previous record – held jointly by January this year and September 2008. Consultations were also at an all time high – 60% up on February’s figures – and in keeping with the year’s average of a consultation for slightly more than every six enquiries.

Online searches for the procedure have also seen a huge boost since they were introduced in early 2007, peaking around March this year.

Mark Bury, chief executive officer of SurgiCare, said: “This recent rise in interest of cosmetic treatments, particularly the non-surgical procedures such as Marcolane, shows that despite the harsh economic times the public are still keen to look their best.

“Using Marcolane gives a quick boost to a woman’s appearance and is ideal to help boost someone’s confidence. It can be particularly useful for someone after childbirth, or after significant weight loss, who is looking to restore lost volume from their breasts or for someone who just wants to enhance their natural shape.”

Macrolane uses a smooth, non-animal based hyaluronic gel to help enhance breasts and leaves no visible scarring. Men can also benefit from Macrolane’s body shaping treatments by enhancing and refining body shape giving natural looking contours to the chest, as well as other areas including the buttocks and calves.

About SurgiCare

Beware Of Fraudulent Web Sites Selling Fake Extagen Capsules Causing Major Health Scares In Consumers

Jason Stephenson proudly announces the launch of his new Extagen capsules website at www.extagen-capsule-review.com which explores the shocking truth about fraudulent Extagen capsules and why they do not work. He also reviews genuine Extagen supplements and answers questions about their efficiency.

“Men have been looking for an effective way to enlarge their penis size for many years,” said Jason. Unfortunately, up until recently, men have had no real solution to this problem. The introduction of Extagen to the market changed all that, and men finally had an answer to penis enlargement. Shortly thereafter, the fraudulent capsules were manufactured and simply did not work.

This has put men at a disadvantage when they are looking for real capsules that truly deliver what they promise.

“It is necessary for men to use due diligence when researching Extagen capsules. Men need to select their Extagen pills f r o m a website that promotes only genuine Extagen capsules that are manufactured and distributed f r o m the official company website only. Fraudulent Extagen capsules are a scam. http://www.extagen-capsule-review.com is an authorized promoter of original Extagen, which is the only Extagen product that works.

Why is the market being flooded with fake Extagen pills?

“Extagen has proven itself to be the leader in penis enhancement products,” explained Jason. “When a product works it gets copied. Extagen capsules have been able to increase the penis size in men. They can increase both the length and girth of the penis, and help with premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction as well.”

Jason conducted extensive research of many of the penis enhancement pills available on the Internet. He studied the price factor, the ease of use and the effectiveness of the pills.

Jason concluded that only genuine Extagen capsules could give men the results they were looking for at the cheapest price and in a short period of time. He also discovered that they were completely safe to take and that consumers experienced no dangerous side effects f r o m their use.

Most men are not happy with their penis size anymore, and one out of every ten men worldwide suffers f r o m erectile dysfunction. These statistics are increasing yearly as the male population accepts sexual dysfunction as a problem that can be discussed and helped. In fact, more and more men are actively searching the Internet for herbal male enhancement supplements such as Extagen.

Men are looking for a safe alternative treatment for their sexual dysfunction problems. Manufactured in an FDA approved manufacturing facility, Extagen is a natural supplement containing powerful herbs that increase the blood flow to the penis. This increases the penis size and makes erections firmer and much more sustainable. These herbs have been used for many years with excellent results.

Extagen has proven itself by giving men back their sexual freedom. 

“I used to have an average size and average performance,” said one user. “ Extagen capsules raised my performance level and I now feel as though I could go on for hours. If only my partner could keep up with me. These capsules work.”

Surgicare Has Announced A Huge Increase In Macrolane Enquires And Procedures, As Woman Prepare For The Exciting Party Dress Season

As Christmas fast approaches and the panic of party dress perfection sets in, Surgicare, one of the UKs leading cosmetic surgery providers, has just announced a huge increase in Macrolane enquires.

There are only a few weeks to go until Christmas Day and the party season is moments away from getting into full swing. Woman seeking the perfect breast to fill the perfect dress are turning to Macrolane, a non invasive breast procedure to enhance the shape of the breast, making them look fuller and shapelier.

Surgicare’s trained physician, Jonquille Chantrey, is one of a handful of Doctors who is able to perform this procedure using Macrolane, which is a smooth, pure, clear non-animal hyaluronic gel. The treatment increases the size of the breast without the need for any invasive surgery or an overnight stay in hospital providing a quick fix breast solution for Christmas.

The Macrolane procedure is an injectable treatment, similar to a dermal filler treatment and is carried out under a local anaesthetic. After a consultation with the Doctor, the Macrolane treatment itself can take around 1 hour to 90 minutes and the results of non surgical breast reshaping will last for 12-18 months. It is advised that a yearly top-up should be maintained for optimum results. One of the advantages of using Macrolane for breast enhancement is that patients will be able to see the results instantly and in plenty of time for Christmas.

Mark Bury, managing director of SurgiCare commented: “In the run up to Christmas we see a rush of woman trying to squeeze in a breast augmentation usually to achieve party dress perfection. We are being told by our patients that this is the time of year they want to discard their bra as not to be restricted to the style of party dress they want to wear.”

Fashionistas predict the most popular party dresses this Christmas will include strapless gowns, off the shoulder, bright satin tight body con, cleavage revealing flowing chiffon and one shoulder asymmetric, with all styles causing their own vexing boob issues.

As one of the leading UK specialists in cosmetic surgery and non surgical treatments, SurgiCare has all the experience, the latest therapies and the caring, professional staff to enhance a patient’s self-confidence by improving appearances. SurgiCare has helped more than 20,000 patients fulfil their dreams of looking and feeling their best.

Malibu’s Luxury Rehabilitation Center

Every day hundreds of thousands of people experience drugs for the first time as well as become more and more addicted to drugs. Drugs are chemicals that have a huge physical and psychological impact on the brain which directly affects how you feel and act. People who are suffering emotionally use drugs, not necessarily for the rush, but they want to escape from their problems. They are trying to medicate themselves out of loneliness, low self-esteem, unhappy relationships, or stress. This is a pattern that too often leads to drug abuse and addiction. But how do you know when drug rehab is needed? One of the only ways to beat a drug addiction is to admit that there is a problem. Only drug addicts who know their addictions for what they actually are, can get the help that they need. The bigger question is out of all the places out there to go seek help, how do you know which one to go to that will help the recovery process.

Cliffside Malibu is a drug rehab center that surpasses anything that you may have seen before. They are a full service residential drug rehab center in the Los Angeles area, that has a team of highly trained experts that are ready to take action with their new and effective drug rehab program. They have highly qualified professionals and support each individual for any kind of addiction. This center also helps addicts to share their recovery with people that are fighting the same addictions. It helps to relate to the people that are surrounding you, and support each other through each individuals own experiences.

Recovering from drug addiction is a very difficult experience for an individual to go through. There is a lot of self discovery and evaluation that one must go through to even begin the healing process. Cliffside Malibu has a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean. It is the privacy as well as state of the art, luxurious sanctuary that attracts the elite to this facility. They have highly qualified individuals that are available 24 hours a day to help in this recovery process. The main goal of this facility is to make it as comfortable as possible for you knowing that the process of recovering is not an easy one. Since drug addiction deals with both physical and psychological roots, it is important to confront the addiction as it actually is. Once this is established, the actual drug rehab program will deal with both states as well as the addiction itself.

Cliffside Malibu did not become one of the top leaders in addiction treatment overnight. There are people that come in with multiple addictions, and Cliffside does not treat these people any different. Each individual undergoes through an evaluation process by one of the staff members, and based on their evaluation will begin their healing process in whatever way they see fit. They find that when patients have a sense of security they are able to give the recovery process their all. When you step foot into Cliffside Malibu, you know in an instant that you are in a safe place. You know that you are safe from the negative influences that keep nagging you, and safe from the drugs that you are trying to escape from to begin with. Each patient is treated as an individual, not as a criminal. The main goal of the staff is to make sure that you are comfortable, safe, and truly ready for the long road to recovery. They are there to help you, not hurt you, and although there may be things that they say that you don’t like, it is important to understand that they are there for you.
