In a survey on the implant forum the most common type of enlargement
is from A to C size followed by B to C and B to D as a tie with the
25-29 and 30-34 age groups having surgery the most.

I've found it mentioned online in several places that there are
approximately 10,000 breast augmentation procedures per year in the
UK.

The ASAPS has the best plastic surgery stats you can find.  Also, the
second place i would look is Breast Implants USA as they also have a
ton of statistics and articles about breast augmentation.  The link is
