Boob job, breast enhancement, augmentation - what do you call it?

Every time I talk to my friends about getting surgery I don't know what to call it. I feel like a 10-year old saying boob job, but everything else just sounds awkward.

What would you guys call it if you're talking to your friends? What about when you're talking to your doctor? And parents?

There should be some sort of guide for these sorts of things...

Does anybody have a suggestion for a surgeon in Reno, NV? I live in Fallon and don't want to travel too far (but obviously I want somebody good).

Somewhere around $5k (depending on where you live and the quality of the doctor).

How long does an augmentation last? I mean, is it permanent or is it something where they sag and you have to keep going back to a surgeon every few years?

I had a friend who got an augmentation and I know she's been back at least once, but I don't know if that is normal.

It's a permanent procedure, you don't have to keep going back.
