I don't believe the NHS provides so-called "breast implants" for anyone except in the case of reconstruction surgeries for women who had to have mastectomies because of breast cancer - and perhaps on rare occasion in the case of women whose breasts grew to be drastically different in size and this caused severe distress and practical difficulties.

But my understanding is that even breast cancer patients who've had mastectomies and want reconstruction surgeries from the NHS later on still often have to wait for the second surgeries for years.
