Percentage of women requiring implants for cosmetic reasons

Is there any data to suggest what percentage of women opt to have breast implants due to masectomies as opposed to cosmetic reasons?

Dear kenfochi, I am not aware of any data base that keeps track of this particular information.  The populations of women are different, mastectomy as breast cancer treatment, with various implant/or reconstruction techniques vs. implant for solely cosmetic purposes.
