Looking for a job??

These days boob jobs are as common as buying a new designer handbag. The fact is now a days the operation can be performed in one-two hours done under a general anaesthetic. Usually the operation requires an overnight stay in hospital, but occasionally you can have the operation and go home the same day. However recovery time is a few weeks and it is common to still feel pain months after.
For an operation that costs between $4000-$10000 in the US and £3500-£5000 in the UK, women are not afraid to shell out big bucks to look better. In 2006 329,000 breast enlargement operations were performed in America. The most common size to go to 300cc which is the size of a C cup.
Boob jobs are now seen as an acceptable present to give someone maybe at Christmas or for their birthday. Both Jessica Simpson and Britney Spears gave their mothers a trip to the doctor as a present to preserve their 'assets' as they were getting older.In California it is quite common for doting mothers to give their daughters a boob job for their sweet sixteenth- why not it solves the problem of 'late bloomers'! One case in particular came from here in the UK when a girl, Jenna Franklin aged 15 offered implants for her birthday present from her parents, both of whom are in the business. She had been considering it since the age of 12! Some doctors will not operate on anyone under the age of 18 but there is always someone to perform it if you look hard enough and are willing to pay.
However deciding on getting a boob job isn't a simple thing to consider, they can more costly than just the initial operation fee. For a start they last for about 10 years so depending on what age you get them, you're more than likely to have to replace them. We have all seen the horror stories from those dodgy surgeons on TV but these are realistic dangers that every woman faces. Side effects can include breast feeding issues, infection, implant leakage and can also interfere with mammography, a low dose x-ray of the breast tissue used to detect cancer.
The way the western world works now is that if we don't like something about ourselves we can change it, it just comes with a hefty price-tag and a recovery period of a couple of months!
