ASPS: The society of plastic surgery maintains data regarding specific procedures performed nationwide. I can tell you that breast augmentation surgery is one of the most commonly performed plastic surgical procedures performed nationwide; much more commonly performed that breast reduction surgery.

Bigger>smaller: Far more breast augmentations are performed - it was the #1 most popular surgery for women in the us last year. The exact numbers are tracked by both the asps and asaps. They issue yearly reports of these stats, which can be accessed for free at their websites.
