Breast Enlargement

Enlargement of breasts is the most popular cosmetic surgery procedure in the UK. The operation, also called breast augmentation, involves placing an implant under the breast tissue or behind the chest muscle. It's no surprise that enlargement of breasts is the most-requested procedure when women make up 92% of plastic surgery patients.

Enlargement of breasts is achieved by inserting silicone implants filled with soft silicone or saline into the body. Breast enlargement is a relatively straightforward operation and normally takes around one and a half hours to complete. Recovery from breast augmentation will usually require an over-night stay in a clinic or hospital. Enlargement of breasts can also be combined with uplift procedures.

Enlargement of breasts is becoming increasingly popular. Last year saw a 40% rise on the previous year in cosmetic surgery procedures carried out in the UK. With plastic surgery becoming more acceptable in Britain, many women are prepared to go under the knife for enlargement of breasts surgery.
