Gerard Lambe, a consultant plastic surgeon at the Reflect Clinic in Manchester and a spokesman for British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, is one of those surgeons offering the service.

They can be used to show what a woman's breast would look like if they were made bigger or smaller.

Gerard, who has been using the technology for a year, told The Sun Online: "They have been a huge advance, in my eyes.

"I have been doing plastic surgery for a long time and augmentation [making them bigger] was a bit in the stone age.

"You would have three or four sizes (of implants) that would just get stuffed in a bra and the woman would say it looks OK or it doesn't.

"This software allows you to show what a round implant would look like as opposed to a tear drop one, it allows you to simulate what it would look like under the muscle and over the muscle.

    Does it also simulate the intensity of back pains for carrying a larger rack?

    Not just that; does it simulate the loss of sensation a woman is likely to experience after an augmentation? Or how about the unsightly scar lines? Those things have nearly ruined porn, along with the tattoo craze.

      You just gotta use the keyword "vintage". (Of course then they are all hairy too.)
