Do you have the "perfect breasts"?

The Daily Mail never fails to provide choice blogging material, and today is no exception as they present a piece on a cosmetic surgeon who has discovered the formula for the “perfect breasts”.

Patrick Mallucci spent many hours poring over photos of topless models in lads magazines and tabloid newspapers to formulate his theory.

In his opinion, the celebrity with the best pair is Caprice - and the woman with the worst is Posh Spice.

Yes, you heard it here first! Man salivates over photos of glamour models and decides who has the best tits! Unfortunately, this particular man is a consultant cosmetic surgeon specialising in breast augmentation.

Mr Mallucci will prevent his findings at the first international conference on breast enlargement, to be held in London this week.

In his lecture, titled Concepts in Design for Breast Augmentation, he will express the hope that his insights are used by surgeons providing breast enlargements.

“These findings allowed me to form a template around which to plan a breast augmentation, and set a standard of aesthetics.

The key aesthetic elements are nipple position and the proportion between the upper and lower halves of the breast, he said.

“The ideal is a 45 to 55 per cent proportion - that is the nipple sits not at the half-way mark down the breast, but at about 45 per cent from the top.”

Thanks for your insight, Mr Mallucci. We are all clearly in need of your services. Now cut me open and pump me full of silicone!
