Report: British Breasts Go Smaller

The Harley Medical Group reveals that, as Ulrika Johnson grabs the headlines for her reduced and reshaped breasts, the trend for down-sizing has hit its 26 clinics with breast reduction surgery up 7.8%. In addition, 75% of women who have had a breast augmentations at The Harley Medical Group in the last six months, opted to go up just
one or two cup sizes.

Mr Riccardo Frati, surgeon for The Harley Medical Group, comments on breast reduction surgery: “Many women feel over-sized breasts dominate their appearance, some find it makes exercising very difficult and in extreme cases large breasts can cause physical discomfort including backache, neck pain and poor posture. A breast reduction will take away excess tissue, fat and skin to give smaller, better proportioned breasts.”

Liz Dale, director at The Harley Medical Group, adds: “Over the last year we have seen a definite move towards smaller, more natural looking breast shapes, as illustrated by today’s breast reduction figures. Where women are choosing to have breast enlargement surgery they’re opting to go up just one or two sizes with C/D cup the most popular size. Contrary to popular belief, most cosmetic surgery patients want to fit in – not stand out.”

Breast reduction surgery usually takes three hours to complete, depending on the size of the breasts. The operation is carried out under general anaesthetic and patients stay in hospital for one or two nights. Breast reduction patients are required to wear a supportive bra for up to three months to keep the breasts well supported whilst healing takes place and ensure the best possible results.

All patients considering cosmetic surgery should ensure that their surgeon is trained and registered in the GMC Specialist Register as a plastic surgeon and ensure that their first consultation is carried out by a medical professional. Every surgeon at The Harley Medical Group is GMC registered as a Plastic Surgeon and all consultations are carried out by a fully qualified Cosmetic Surgery Nurse Counsellor. The Harley Medical Group has been established for 26 years and has 26 clinics in the UK.

The Harley Medical Group Has Revealed That The Number Of Nipple Correction Surgical Procedures Carried Out Has Risen 30% Year-On-Year

The Harley Medical Group has revealed that the number of nipple correction surgical procedures carried out has risen 30% year-on-year.

Mr Riccardo Frati, surgeon at The Harley Medical Group, appeared on GMTV to discuss nipple correction surgery with Lorraine Kelly. He said: “There are nipple surgery options out there and a minority of women seek to change the size or shape of their nipples through reconstructive surgery purely for cosmetic reasons. Another option, nipple elevation, involves the nipple being raised above its existing level to enhance its appearance and make the breast look more pert.

“At The Harley Medical Group we can also resolve the retraction of nipples, which can be a problem for women who want to breast feed.

“Patients having Breast Augmentations will often find their nipples will remain erect for a while after surgery though after a time the nipples will return to their normal state.”

As rumours abound that Victoria Beckham has had a breast reduction, The Harley Medical Group has reported that the celebrity trend for smaller, more natural looking breasts, is increasingly popular amongst women coming into the Group’s 26 clinics. 75% of women who have had a Breast Augmentation at The Harley Medical Group in the last six months opted to go up just one or two cup sizes. Reflecting the less-is-more attitude now taken by many celebrities including Jordan and Ulrika Jonsson, women are opting for a more ‘real’ look.

Liz Dale, Director at The Harley Medical Group, said: “Over the last year we have seen a definite move towards smaller, more natural looking breast shapes across both our reduction and augmentation business. Look-at-me, statement décolletage is definitely becoming less popular. This could in part be due to the global trend we have seen in a lot of consumer areas for taking a more subtle approach to personal presentation.”

All patients considering cosmetic surgery should ensure that their surgeon is trained and registered in the GMC Specialist Register as a Plastic Surgeon and ensure that their first consultation is carried out by a medical professional.
