Most women dream of having larger boobs, however tennis star Simona Halep has vowed to undergo surgery later this year to shrink the size of her “uncomfortable” breasts at the tender age of 17.

The 5ft 5in Romanian beauty is to undergo breast reduction surgery to reduce the size of her amazing 34DD’s.

The tennis star, who is ranked 317^th in the world, said “The breasts make me uncomfortable when I play. It’s the weight that troubles me, affecting my ability to react quickly”.

The main reason for considering breast reduction surgery is that large breasts can often cause both physical and mental distress. Chronic back pain is often a key symptom which surgery can significantly help to relieve.

The Hospital Group, one of the country’s leading cosmetic surgeries, perform an extensive range of breast surgery procedures, ranging from breast reduction, nipple reduction, breast uplift and enlargement.

In 2008, The Group performed 10 per cent more breast reductions than in 2007. Only six months into the year, and The Hospital Group have yet again seen an increase on last year’s figures proving that breast reduction is increasingly popular.

With the ever rising demand for breast enhancement, The Hospital Group, one of the country’s leading providers of cosmetic surgery, has launched the revolutionary new Natrelle™ breast implants from Allergan.

With a range of over 500 implants, the patient has a choice of four projections and gel types as well as a number of textured and smooth surfaces, allowing a more natural and individual breast enhancement.

Surgery isn’t something to be taken lightly, and to ensure the patient is in control every step of the way, The Hospital Group’s surgeons utilise the latest Biodynamics® Breast Analysis System which will measure the breast accurately and assist in selecting the perfect Natrelle™ implant based on the individual’s requirements. A total of up to 36 detailed measurements may be taken during the consultation, followed by a discussion of the patient’s preferences and expectations in terms of cleavage, shape, size and feel.

The amazing new software also offers a visualisation system, enabling the patient to see and feel the effect of the enhancement before undergoing surgery by wearing a specially designed vest with externally worn simulated breast prosthesis.

David Ross, chief executive of The Hospital Group, said: “Our main concern when performing any form of surgical procedure is that the patient is 100 per cent happy with the end result.

“This fabulous new technology allows patients to actually see the difference our bespoke implants will have on both posture and appearance before undergoing any form of treatment. This in turn ensures patients will be completely satisfied with the proposed enhancement”.

She’s never been shy about her achievements, and Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace now has a lot more to be proud of.

Now a published author, everyone’s favourite Big Brother glamour girl has sought help from The Hospital Group to boost her profile – with a breast enlargement.

Aisleyne, who has recently turned 30, said: “You hear of people booking in for surgery and not getting the look they wanted, and that was me before.

“I just wanted to get the shape sorted out. My boobs were sitting quite far apart so I wanted something which gave me much more of a cleavage.

“I definitely don’t want them massive like Jordan or super-pert like Victoria Beckham, just something natural which is going to look good in a dress.”

Aisleyne turned to the UK’s leading surgery provider to improve the shape and size of her DD-cups, which were increased to an E by the surgeon at the Bromsgrove-based exclusive clinic.

The UK has seen a significant boom in the number of cosmetic surgery procedures being undertaken in 2008 and shows no sign of slowing down this year, despite the recession taking full hold.

The number of people opting for surgery has soared over the past five years by a staggering 320 per cent. According to the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS), an unbelievable 34,100 procedures were performed in 2008.

Boosting self-confidence and the desire for the ultimate beach body are said to be the major reasons for people to undergo surgery.

The research findings also show cosmetic surgery is no longer dominated by women, male surgery has also seen a steady increase over recent years with the most popular procedure being rhinoplasty aka ‘the nose job’.

The most popular treatment for women in 2008 remains breast augmentation, seeing an increase of 30 per cent. However abdominoplasty, also known as the ‘tummy tuck’, came a close second with 3,300 women opting to go under the knife, all in the name of beauty.

The Hospital Group, one of the country’s leading cosmetic surgeries and weight loss providers, has also seen a considerable increase in the number of procedures being undertaken.

The Group saw a staggering 45 per cent increase in the number of women having breast augmentation.

For men, bylateral gynaecomastia, or ‘moob removal’, has seen a substantial rise in popularity with an increase of 20 per cent – proving men care as much about their appearance as women.
