Summary


THE website has been slammed as "degrading" and "dangerous" by medics. The British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) has warned UK women to steer clear.

Adam Searle, consultant plastic surgeon and former president of BAAPS, said: "I thought I could no longer be appalled by the circus- like atmosphere surrounding plastic surgery but this is really quite shocking. "The invitation for women to post suggestive photos, sell personal items and chat with strangers over the Internet in exchange for a breast augmentation is just plain degrading."
