by Melissa Field

Boost your bust, part 1: The surgical solutionWhat exactly does a boob job involve? How much does it cost? Is it painful? With more than 22 per cent of polled iVillagers admitting they'd do anything to give their boobs a boost, we take a closer look at exactly what's involved...

I want to boost my boobs - where do I start?
If you're really keen to have a breast augmentation operation (aka - a boob job), your GP should be the first person you see.

While it is possible to have a breast enhancement operation on the NHS, these procedures are extremely rare. It's unlikely your local health authority would have the means to fund such an op, unless the circumstances are extreme, eg your lack of breasts causes you serious mental anguish. What your GP can do is to talk through the procedure with you, recommend reputable surgeons and discuss your options.

Finding a good clinic and surgeon to do your op is also extremely important. For more information on procedures, surgeons and clinics, there are a few sites you should check out:

iVillager recommendations: 'I'm going for a breast augmentation next month and I can't wait! I'm a 32A and I'm moving to a 32C. I'm so excited! But here's the best bit of advice I can give you: visit to www.implantinfo.com - it's a site for women who've had this procedure. They tell their stories (warts and all, so to speak) and offer great advice on healing, coping with pain and the different things to do before and after surgery. Good luck!
