The Survey: Fake Boobs
This week, cosmetic surgery experts at The Harley Medical Group tell us that more fake boobs are being sold than ever. It looks like our plastic surgeons are shifting as much silicone as PC world.

The results:
- Typically, 10 years ago, 48% of breast augmentation patients went up three cup sizes whereas over the last 12 months the most popular size increase was two cup sizes.
- Breast augmentation remains the most popular cosmetic surgery procedure, accounting for 30% of all procedures undertaken by The Harley Medical Group in the last 12 months.
- British attitudes have changed dramatically from 10 years ago, having breast surgery is no longer kept secret, women are now happy to flaunt their breast surgery and tell others about their operations.
- Over 65% of breast augmentation patients are between 25-35 years old with the balance mostly post breast feeding.
- Demographically, there is a Northern bias – the procedure is more popular in Manchester and Leeds where breast uplift is currently one of the most popular procedures.
- The most popular implant at The Harley Medical Group is currently the “Round High Profile”, which produces a more rounded appearance to the upper breast, whilst “Contoured” breast implants are designed to reflect the slope of the breast but are not as effective for improving cleavage.
- At The Harley Medical Group, the most popular implant has always been the Silicone implant, as it gives a more natural shape and feel.
