Rise in plastic surgery, research says

MORE women than ever are having breast enlargements but are opting for smaller implants, new research shows.

Seven years ago almost half of patients increased their breasts by three cup sizes but, nowadays, the most popular increase is two cup sizes.

More than 65% of breast augmentation patients are between 25 and 35 years old. According to the Harley Medical Group, breast enlargement is now the fastest growing sector of cosmetic surgery and is set to skyrocket this year.
