Things to Consider Before a Breast Augmentation (BA)

Breast Augmentation: Things to Consider

Breast Augmentation (BA) is a very effective procedure but there are a number of things that you should consider before you have a breast augmentation. The most important thing to consider before you have a BA or any cosmetic procedure done, is what do you hope to gain from the procedure?

As you may be aware, I am also a certified life coach and I am happy to explore this question in much greater detail. 
If you want a BA by definition you want larger breasts, but the deeper question is why? If you have a deeper more hidden meaning, such as to improve your relationship with your partner or to help you become more popular, you are setting yourself up for disappointment.

Confidence

Now, a BA will give you larger breasts and hopefully this can help you feel better about yourself. This boosted self confidence can lead to more openness in your relationship or feeling better about yourself, so that you are more helpful and cheerful to be around.

However, if you have real problems in your relationship or your sense of self worth, you need to address these head on and not have a BA, hoping it will solve the problem.

You also need to see if your expectations are realistic. It is simply not true that everyone can have perfect breasts after a BA. Some types of breasts will need a lift, but even some of them with a lift, although they will look better, will not look like those of an 22-year-old.

Breast implants will not last forever. However, I think the internet post that says you should change them every ten years is erroneous. You should only change them if they get hard or leak. You should, of course, always select a board certified plastic surgeon to get you the best result.

The best thing to do if you’re interested in breast augmentation is to schedule a consultation. At my practice, all my consults are free and usually last 45 minutes for women interested in breast augmentation. I never pressure you into any decision and always give my honest opinion.
