Release Summary: The Harley Medical Group has revealed the Dosh
'n' Pecks phenomenon where increasing numbers of cosmetic surgery
couples are going under the knife in Britain's cosmetic surgery
boom
Press
Release Body: The Harley Medical Group, the UK's
largest cosmetic surgery provider, has revealed that 15 per cent
of cosmetic surgery patients treated at the group admit that their
partners have also undergone some sort of cosmetic surgery treatment
too, identifying a new breed of cosmetic surgery couples.
According
to the figures from The Harley Medical Group,
the top his 'n' hers combination sees women plumping for a Breast
Augmentation whilst their male partners opt for Liposuction.
Liz
Dale, Director of The Harley Medical Group, commented:
"There is no doubt that patients are encouraging their partners
to explore cosmetic
surgery treatment options, although frequently partners will
need little persuading as they can see the benefits experienced
by their partner - both physically and psychologically - and don't
want to be left behind or stand out in the family's photo album."
While
The Harley Medical Group currently sees more
women, there has been a definite increase in recent years in the
number of men are going under the knife to get the look they want.
The
male tummy tuck has proved to be the fastest growing procedure
with a 25 per cent increase since 2006, with Gynaecomastia (male
chest reduction) also up by 20 per cent across the same period.
The most popular operation for men is Rhinoplasty (25 per cent
of total operations performed on males patients in 2007) with
Liposuction coming in second (22 per cent).
