The Harley Medical Group Reports Boob Jobs Still Top of the Ops

The Harley Medical Group Reports Boob Jobs Still Top of the Ops

London, UK (PRWEB) November 8, 2009

The Harley Medical Group, the UK’s largest cosmetic surgery company, has reported that the hourglass is the most sought after body shape as more women than ever are plumping for boob jobs with breast augmentations up 9% year-on-year in October. Women having the op are citing voluptuous celebs such as Kelly Brook, Eva Mendes and Megan Fox as having the figures they admire most.

With Kelly Brook hitting the headlines in a new poster campaign which has been specially doctored to better cover up her E-cup assets, The Harley Medical Group reports that the majority of female patients look to go up just two cups sizes.

Liz Dale, Director at The Harley Medical Group, said, “On the whole women want a natural, curvy look which ensures all their assets are in proportion. Most of the women we see are proud of their figures and through surgery want to achieve – or often regain – increased feelings of confidence and femininity by correcting a part of themselves they are not 100% happy with.”

Angela Fry, 38, from Berkshire had breast enlargement (http://www.harleymedical.co.uk/cosmetic-surgery-for-women/breast-surgery/breast-enlargement-implants-and-augmentation/ ) surgery after she had her fourth child. She commented, “After each birth, my shape changed dramatically and my breasts sagged and lost their shape completely. For me, having a boob job wasn’t about getting bigger breasts but getting them back to the shape and size that was right for my figure.”

Liz Dale noted, “We always counsel our patients that cosmetic surgery (http://www.harleymedical.co.uk/ ) will not transform them into their heroine (or hero); however it can be useful for a patient to come to us with a clear idea of the shape they’re looking to achieve.”

Notes to editors:
Breast Augmentation (http://www.harleymedical.co.uk/cosmetic-surgery-for-women/breast-surgery/breast-enlargement-implants-and-augmentation/ ) surgery at The Harley Medical Group costs from £4,275.

The Harley Medical Group Announces Rise in Breast Surgery Procedures in Ireland

The Harley Medical Group Announces Rise in Breast Surgery Procedures in Ireland

Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin (PRWEB) October 13, 2010

The Harley Medical Group, Ireland’s leading cosmetic surgery provider, has revealed breast surgery is top of the ops for the 23rd year running and the fastest growing sector of cosmetic surgery. The Harley Medical Group has seen a positive increase on last year’s enquiries. While breast reductions are becoming more popular with an increasing number of Irish women reducing their breast size in order to achieve a more slender figure, breast augmentation continues to be the most popular procedure performed at THMG’s Dublin clinic.

Pauline Hughes, Dublin Clinic Manager for The Harley Medical Group commented: “There is a noticeable upward trend for post-breast feeding breast augmentation procedures. 31 % of breast implant procedures performed at the THMG clinic over the past 12 months have been for women that come into this bracket. In the previous 12 months, this figure was in the region of 24%.

“The age profile of women presenting for placarding-breast feeding breast augmentation is late 20s to mid 30s years. This suggests that women are waiting until their final child (typically after 2 or 3 children) before choose to ‘replace what they once had’, rather than opting for unnatural looking enhancements with larger breast implants (http://www.harleymedical.ie/cosmetic-surgery-for-women/breast-surgery/breast-enlargement-implants-and-augmentation/).”

Typically, 7 years ago, 46% of Breast Augmentation patients went up three cup sizes whereas over the last 12 months THMG’s most popular size increase was 2 cup sizes. Breast Surgery remains the most popular of all cosmetic surgery procedures, and it accounted for 48% of all procedures undertaken by The Harley Medical Group in the concluding 12 months. Irish attitudes have changed dramatically from 7 years ago, as women are now happy to show-off their surgery. Over 65% of Breast Augmentation patients are between 25-35 years old with the balance mostly post breast feeding.

About The Harley Medical Group (http://www.harleymedical.ie/):
The Harley Medical Group is Irelands leading cosmetic surgery provider, providing excellence in cosmetic surgery to Irish patients since 1999.

The Harley Medical Group Sees a Boom for Bigger Breasts

The Harley Medical Group Sees a Boom for Bigger Breasts

London, UK (PRWEB) May 29, 2010

According the Harley Medical Group in Dublin, breast augmentation is again the fastest growing sector of cosmetic surgery with a positive increase on last years enquiries of over 37%. The latest data from The Harley Medical Group accounted for 27 of all procedures undertaken by the group in the last 12 months.

A large part of this increase has been attributed to a desire by women who have just given birth to get back into their original shape, or better, as soon as possible after giving birth. Post-baby surgery currently accounts for an estimated 75% of all Breast Uplifts (mastopexy) at the Harley Medical Group and Irish attitudes have changed dramatically as women are now happy to talk about their Surgery and show off their new found confidence.

Breast augmentation (http://www.harleymedical.ie/cosmetic-surgery-for-women/breast-surgery/breast-enlargement-implants-and-augmentation/ ) is the third most common type of post-natal procedure with mums making up 60% of patients. The shape and position of breasts as well as the overall body figure can change considerably after giving birth and so many mums opt to get breast enlargements to suit their new body shape.

The Harley Medical Clinic has over 27 years experience in cosmetic surgery and prides itself on the beautiful natural results it achieves. The highly qualified surgeons are there before, during and throughout the aftercare following the procedure.

A Breast Augmentation operation is normally performed under a General Anesthetic and takes approximately 1-1.5 hours. The average cost for breast augmentation is €6,610.

Reconstructing the breast microsurgically, without taking muscles, allows patients to recover faster with less pain.

Do You Have Adult ADHD Symptoms?

For too many years, ADHD was thought to be a child disorder, and more specifically a disorder only found in young boys. But with medical technology and research evolving, it has been found that many children with ADD do not grow out of it when they become adults. Although some of the hyperactivity tends to decrease, the core symptoms of the disorder do not disappear. Hyperactivity can turn into impulsivity in adulthood, which can potentially be very destructive.

92 percent of adults diagnosed with ADHD who were treated after age 18 wish they had been diagnosed sooner, according to research done by Harris Interactive surveys. Research also indicated that 90 percent of teachers felt that late diagnosis affected both academic and social development in students.

Families of people with ADD believe that getting an accurate diagnosis is very important, but that conflicting information prevents this from happening in many cases. Media from drug companies such as the one pushing the popular ADD drug Strattera contribute to this misinformation. Internet links that supposedly indicate ADD also contribute to misinformation. ADD is not something you can diagnose just by taking a simple quiz or survey. It must be diagnosed by a psychologist or psychiatrist, and even these visits should involve some type of formal testing for the disorder.

Before recently, many adults with ADHD were called unmotivated or lazy. One thing to keep in mind is that just because you have some of the symptoms does mean you have the disorder. It is the severity of the symptoms and the history of them in the individual that is the tell tale. What you need to keep in mind is that a disorder by definition is something that gets in the way.

For a diagnosis in adulthood, the symptoms of disorganization, distractibility, impulsivity and lack of long-term planning must have started sometime in childhood.

Adults with ADHD can definitely have a successful life, and the disorder has a range of effects on their progress in adulthood. Some individuals with ADHD will have trouble finishing college, some won’t. Some will have trouble finding a job or career they enjoy, some won’t. It depends on many factors: how severe the disorder is, how supportive the individual’s family is, whether secondary disorders mask ADD, etc, etc. Some individuals may have ADD and the field they chose to go into supports their creativity and ideas. Some will have no idea what they want to do and only are concerned with the moment. The bottom line is that if you think you have ADD and it is affecting the quality of your life; see a professional to further investigate your hunches. Medication and counseling can have a huge affect on the quality of your life.

The Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) condition mostly manifests itself in and children in the early years of school. so take care of your self Health In Life.
