subject: Going Bigger Is Not Always Better [print this page] Trending Trending
It seems to be an ever lasting trend to have big breasts. Celebrities love cosmetic surgery and getting larger breasts seem like the most popular procedure. The media have made it their mission to let the public know just who has had what done. However with average cup size in Britain going from a 34C to a 36D, the demand for breast reductions has increased. (Daily mail 2011)
The issue
Having such a large breast size can cause both physical and socialization problems, especially at a young age. A large breast size can cause back pain, neck pain and shoulder pain and these can all grow worse with age. In most cases a woman who has undergone a breast reduction has only one regret, not having the treatment sooner.
Some women may find having an extra large bust size embarrassing, causing confidence issues and making clothing choices especially difficult. This means this surgery not only helps patients feel a lot better in a physical sense but also in an emotional one. The procedure has one of the highest patient satisfaction rates throughout hospitals.
A Changing Media
With the demand for breast reductions increasing the media are now reporting stories of many woman getting breast reductions. (BAPPS 2011) Many of these stories are focussed on the large number of teenage girls getting the procedure for various reasons.
Tennis player, Simona Halep famously decided to get a breast reduction at the young age of 17. She underwent her procedure taking her from a bust size of 34DD to a 34C. As a result of this surgery she went up 450 places in the world rankings and has never been happier about her decision.
More Choice
With woman now being told it is okay to not have big breasts, woman have been more commonly allowing themselves to have the freedom and comfort of not having back pain, neck pain and the social burden that can come with large breasts.
It's Not Only For The Girls
Men have proven to be very keen on some aspects of cosmetic surgery, with a 44% rise in the number having a breast reduction to deal with their 'moobs'. Male breast reduction is now in the top five cosmetic procedures for men rising 27.5% in 2010 (BAPPS 2011)
If a man is self conscious about his appearance, in particular his breast size he can have breast reduction surgery to flatten the area. The cause of enlarged breasts amongst men can be obesity, excessive alcohol and certain diseases. Socially, large breasts in men have been deemed as 'Moobs' making large breasts even more of an embarrassment for men.
