Breast implants aren't about size or getting a man
Most British women considering breast enlargement
surgery want their busts to be just a bit bigger and say it isn't to
attract men.
A survey by Mybreast.org, Britain's only specialist breast augmentation service, revealed that 78 percent of women looking into the procedure only wanted to go up one or two cup sizes.
Only three percent of the more than 1,500 respondents said they wanted larger breasts to attract men, while 66 percent of women viewed bigger breasts as a way to boost confidence.
Thirty percent said it could make them feel more womanly.
The two most important factors for considering breast surgery were the surgeon's reputation, qualifications and the quality of the implants.
"It is very reassuring that these findings reflect our core values at MyBreast.org," MyBreast.org consultant Plastic Surgeon Patrick Mallucci said in a statement on Wednesday.
According to the survey, breast surgery was the most popular cosmetic surgery procedure, with 43 percent of respondents saying they would choose it over liposuction or a nose job.
MyBreast.org offers a complete package price for breast surgery of 4,250 pounds ($8,442) which also includes a lifetime follow-up policy.
