Thread: I am debating on getting breast implants.

I too am looking into having breast augmentation. I have thought about it for a few years now. I have two children and a very loving and supportive husband. While I know he thinks I am sexy and is happy the way I am, I want the implants for myself. I have researched and have an idea of where to go from here but am still unsure. I wish they were the size they used to be when I was on the pill, lol.
I think though that if this is something you really want to do you need to make sure you are doing it for you and that you work on loving yourself first. If you don't have a healthy self esteem nothing will make you feel better about yourself and you will always find fault.

You sound like me before I had mine done. My advice to you would be to go find a board certified plastic surgeon and have a consultation. Do research and make sure you find the best surgeon you can get. It makes all the difference. For me, the surgery wasn't bad at all. I was in minimal pain, mostly just soreness, and didn't need to take anything stronger than a tylenol for the next two to three days after. I had mine done under the muscle so it takes a while until you are able to lift up your arms; that was the worst part for me. Also it took about a week for the anasthesia to fully make its way out of my body and my body reacted to it by not allowing me to sleep for more than about 3 hours at a time. That drove me bonkers because this side effect was never mentioned to me. I would do it again if I had to do it over. Please understand though that it will not fix your body image or self esteem because that is psychological. You might not like them because they aren't real enough looking, or feeling or whatever. They will not look and feel like real breasts because they are not. You will feel better about the size but there might be other issues such as these that you didn't consider. What I'm trying to say is that implants might fix your boob issues to a certain degree, but if you're looking for them to fix your overall self esteem issues, they will not be able to do that.
