A Wildly Popular Procedure

Breast Augmentation is the single most performed cosmetic surgery procedure in the United States. It is hugely popular among women of all ages, and even though the goal of each one is usually the same – a bust they are happy and content with, not the same could be said of the motive behind each decision to go for the operation.

What makes women undergo a breast enhancement? Is it a youthful impulse, insecurity, an attempt to draw more male attention? You would be amazed at how different the reasons can be. Let’s take a look at some of them.

Post-pregnancy Body

Contrary to the widespread myth that usually insecure young women seek the help of cosmetic surgery professionals, statistics shows that the majority of women who choose breast augmentation are in the age span of 30 to 39. They are usually young women with families and children who look to regain their pre-pregnancy bodies after consulting America’s plastic surgeon in Chicago and other states.

While breastfeeding is the best nutrition a mother can provide for her child, it usually takes its toll on female breasts, affecting their shape and form. The procedure restores or sometimes even achieves a more improved look than before the pregnancy.

An important note here would be that the correction does not impact the future ability of a woman to breastfeed, or pose risks to the fetus during a new pregnancy.

A Way to Boost Self Esteem

Women who are unhappy with their breasts’ appearance experience a great self-confidence boost following the augmentation. This often spreads across many other areas oftheir life, not just looks.

Feeling good helps them pursue personal goals and achieve success in other areas as well.

A Solution to Micromastia

Micromastia, or underdeveloped breasts, is a medical condition which is usually determined after the end of puberty when women reach the age of 22, by which the breasts are expected to have completed their growth and development.

Even though breast sizes vary greatly and there are many women with a naturally really small cup, self-perception, together with comparison to what an average breast size would be, could lead to diagnosing the condition. The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery can provide answers, in case you have doubts as to whether you might be affected.

The condition usually results in intense discontent and embarrassment on the part of the person, and the only solution to the physical and psychological impact to the patient is to correct the condition through breast augmentation. 

Asymmetrical Breasts

Micromastia sometimes takes the form of different breast size in a person. The difference could be so visible, that the patient experiences not only self-esteem issues, but also difficulties with the everyday choice of clothes and the proper lingerie to help them mask the condition.

Breast asymmetry is quite common, and the corrections in this case would include intervention to even out the difference and achieve size uniformity.

Reconstruction After a Mastectomy

Women who undergo partial or full breast removal as a result of cancer or other serious health conditions often have the natural desire to return their body to its state prior to the illness.

This is the most complex type of breast augmentation because it does not only include enhancement by placing an implant, but tissue reconstruction as well. It often means that the nipple and areola also need to be rebuilt as part of the procedure.

A Younger Look and Greater Sexual Satisfaction

According to a study conducted on the effects of getting breast implants, it was determined that women experience a boost in libido and improved sexual life. This is mostly due to the increased self-image and sexual confidence, which in turn impacts intimacy and sexual performance.

Breast augmentation is also the way to fight the signs of aging. As any other part of the human body, breasts too suffer the signs of time, losing a lot of their fullness, size, and overall appearance by sagging.

A breast lift and enhancement makes it possible to return the female figure to its curvier, perkier former years, contribute to more graceful aging, and the patient’s overall more positive attitude to the changes, which naturally occur in the female body with time.
