Why Have Breast Augmentation Because It's Fun!

Many women start the journey to breast augmentation with the questions most women ask about breasts:

* Why have breast augmentation? * How big is too big? * Do I really need implants?

To quote Eva Mendes, beautiful, curvy, and so sexy, Eva Mendes, "It's fun to be a woman. It's fun to flirt and wear makeup and have boobs"

Yes, ladies, it's fun to have beautiful breasts. It's fun to be noticed by men and to flirt. Glorious flirting often begins with first appearances, with a man who notices a woman with a great figure and a big smile.

There have been studies and surveys, anecdotes, and scientific research on the effects of breast augmentation. It's pretty much widely accepted that implants and other related plastic surgery procedures give the recipient woman a boost of confidence primarily due to the concept of looking great-feeling great.

Women who are smaller up top and have been that way since puberty and women who have lost volume from age or childbirth or both, often look to plastic surgery to create a figure that Mother Nature did not. Larger breasts or a lift (or even a reduction for some women) can give a boost to self esteem and sexuality.

In fact, many women after surgery report a renewed interest in sex, and husbands and boyfriends report their partner being much more involved in the sex experience. Hmmm After surgery, how long do you have to wait before having sex?

After surgery, vigorous activity such as exercise and sex must be approached conservatively. Any activity that causes much movement in your breasts for a week or two after surgery should make one pause. If you don't move too much, sex may be possible, but how much fun is that? It's best to discuss with your surgeon. (It's always important to remember that antibiotics you may be taking after surgery can interfere with oral birth control pills. You may want to use another form of contraception.)

Also, after surgery, it's fun to where lower cut shirts. It's fun to show off a little more cleavage. It's fun to wear shirts a little tighter. All of these things are attention getters, and that is a consideration before choosing enhancement surgery.

A few women have had surgery and realized that after surgery they get lots more attention than they are comfortable with. For these women, the frequent attention of men makes them uneasy. This is not fun. We want to be comfortable in our own bodies-that's the point of surgery!

This is where a thorough breast sizing consultation comes into play. A good and experienced plastic surgeon will have a sizing consultation program. Computer imaging and implant testers to add into your bra are great devices, but these are no replacement for a thorough consultation with discussion of what the patient expects and what the surgeon believes are realistic results.

It is during the consultation that the surgeon learns about the patient and what she wants to accomplish with her chosen procedure. The patient should only consider a surgeon who spends adequate time with you and is careful to answer your questions and concerns.
