Reasons for having breast augmentation surgery
The purpose of breast augmentation surgery is to improve breast size and shape, but women can become dissatisfied with their breasts for a variety of reasons.
Naturally small breasts
Some women are born with small breasts and would feel more confident if their breasts were larger.
They may think that larger breasts are more feminine or that a larger cup size would provide a better balance with their overall body shape and size.
Breast changes after pregnancy and breastfeeding
Pregnancy and breastfeeding cause the breasts to increase substantially in size.
After breastfeeding ends, the breast may change shape and lack volume.
Breast augmentation surgery can restore the pre-baby size and shape of the breasts.
The impact of menopause and ageing
Menopause can cause the breasts to shrink and flatten.
Breast enlargement surgery with silicone breast implants can add volume and restore a more youthful size and shape.
Weight loss
Substantial weight loss can leave the breast looking ’empty’.
Breast augmentation with silicone breast implants will restore the shape of the breasts and increase their size and projection.
Breast asymmetry
Breasts are sisters, not twins, and there will always be subtle differences between them.
However, some women have breasts that are very different in size and shape.
This disparity often affects their body confidence and makes it difficult to buy bras and other clothing that fit.
Inserting an implant to increase the cup size of the smaller breast will balance the chest.
Breast reconstruction
Breast augmentation can be used during breast reconstruction for women who have undergone previous breast surgery, often a mastectomy, a surgical treatment for breast cancer.

Cosmetic breast surgery with breast implants
The most popular form of breast augmentation surgery uses silicone implants.
We use the highest-quality silicone gel implants, manufactured to highly rigorous standards, for long-lasting, natural-looking results.
What size implant should I choose for my boob job?
We recommend choosing breast implants that complement your body’s dimensions.
Silicone implants are available in a wide range of sizes and shapes, allowing you to choose between a subtle enlargement of a couple of cup sizes or a more significant boost of your breast size.
Aesthetic plastic surgeons are highly experienced in matching breast implants to patients’ bodies, and your plastic surgeon will advise you on the appropriate shape and size of implant to achieve your desired outcome.

What happens during breast enlargement procedures?
Surgical treatment for breast enlargement is a straightforward procedure that takes about two hours to complete. It is performed under general anaesthetic.
Your surgeon will begin by making incisions in the breast crease.
A pocket is then created in the breast tissue to accommodate the breast implant. Silicone implants are often placed behind the chest muscle to achieve a natural-looking result.
Your surgeon will ensure that the implants are in a natural position on your chest and close the incisions with dissolvable stitches.
The recovery process after breast enlargement surgery
Most breast enlargement patients are treated as day patients, and after you have recovered from the anaesthesia and been assessed by our surgeon, you will leave the hospital on the same day. However, we are always on hand to offer advice or care throughout your recovery.
You should expect some postoperative swelling and tenderness.
We advise patients to take a couple of weeks off work, but you can resume normal activities and light exercise when you feel up to it.
It is best to avoid strenuous exercise for a few weeks to allow your body to heal correctly.
Initially, your new boobs will look very high on your chest, but they will soon establish a more natural position.
You will need to wear a supportive sports bra to help your breasts settle.
