halacha - May one have augmentative cosmetic surgery?


I realize much of the discussion on plastic surgery can be found in the answers to this question. However, the actual question was only addressing nose surgery. I would like to to know:





  1. If there are any modern (no older than 10 years) teshuvot regarding cosmetic surgery. Most of the teshuvot quoted in the aforementioned question are nearly 50 years old. Societal demands and medical dangers involved have certainly changed.




  2. Is there a differentiation between cosmetic surgery to "fix" something (ie shorten a nose) as opposed to augmenting something that is not necessarily "broken" (ie breast implants).
