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.

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.
