BREAST ENLARGEMENT SURGERY (IMPLANTS AND AUGMENTATION)
Breast
enlargement is the UK's most common form of cosmetic surgery. Small
breasts or breasts that have decreased in size following childbirth can
be a source of embarrassment to a woman. But breast enlargement is one
way to make you feel more feminine again.Breast enlargement surgery involves surgically inserting an implant behind the natural breast tissue to increase the size of the breast. Breast augmentation is a similar procedure to breast enlargement surgery but is usually conducted to create better symmetry.
