Breast Augmentation - Opinions and Experiences

I have really old implants. Like 20 yr old implants. I was young and hot when I got them - no regrets!!!! They are saline. A while back one deflated. So now I am wop sided. I didn’t want to have them fixed while I was still obese.
My dilemma now is 1. New implants or 2. Remove the old ones and just get a nice lift. I don’t like the thoughts of going thru it again in my 60s!

That is why it is an opinion. Women's opinions will count for the same. Really there is only one vote that will either make it happen or not. Everything else is bias.4 -
My boobs were dd naturally, and shrank after I breast fed. They weren’t horrible, but I’d worry if I rolled to my side in a bikini, and since the actual size of my breast didn’t change (just the filling), I always had awful bra gap and had to wear big padded bras. Plus, I didn’t like looking down at my wrinkly boobs that used to be so nice. I had them done, but not lifted. I got silicone over the muscle, bc over is better for lift, and for women who work out a lot. I wasn’t a stripper at the time, but I am now, and I get a lot of complements on natural they look and feel, which I think is bc they were big to start with. I’m a 30ddd now, and I was ab a full c before. It’s hard to say bc they were deflated.3

My opinion is it's body to body on how it'll affect you.
As you age you won't want to have to go back to surgery for replacements or maintenance anymore than you already will have to..
Also, while men love breasts, a man should love you and your health before some pert, full amazing shaped but fake breasts..
Then again...
It's all your choice anyway

All boobs are real, some are just manufactured differently.
This should be in a card
In the past I've thought about it but never seriously because the risks with having breast implants are not minor.
I've always had small breasts and they got even smaller once I started working out (damn!). But when I really think about it now, well - when I look at myself, not to sound conceited, but I look damn good and my breasts, while small, also look damn good. They're cute, they're perky, and they suit the rest of my body and these titties might be small but they're my titties and I'm proud of them.
it just always bothers me when somebody talks about "fake" boobs. They're not imaginary.
Now you wanna talk about fake boobs, I would like to point you to Victoria Secret and their 2 cup size increasing pushups. THOSE are fake boobs.4 -
I had small B's prior to pregnancy/breastfeeding and I think I'm the anomaly because now I'm a small D cup. It's been a decade and I'm still getting used to them. Maybe you could borrow prosthetics to get to the cup size you're considering for a few days and wear them in different situations to see what you think?1

I know several women at my gym with breast implants. EVERY SINGLE ONE has said, "I'm never benching again."
You only HAVE to bench if you compete in a full powerlifting meet. Powerlifting is more important to me than bigger boobs...although, bigger boobs would decrease my ROM.1 -

Well it is a foreign object implanted into the body to imitate breast tissue, i.e. "fake boobs". The definion of fake is imitation or artificial, not imaginary so it might be offensive to some to use that wording but they are indeed fake boobs.2 -
Tbh, I've thought about it for years. I was always unhappy with how i looked (really bad self esteem issues, bad relationships, etc. ) I eventually changed my mind. I'm pretty happy with the current me these days. Besides, i like lifting and I'm perfectly healthy without bigger boobs.

I have really small boobs, 34 A, and sometimes I can't even fit that it ends up being too big! And I have a somewhat big butt, 'cause that's where my fat went I guess. =o xD I can understand how you feel, but I wouldn't get surgery to make your boobs bigger. There's too many risks and hassle involved. I'm sure your boobs look just fine the way they are. And just think of it this way, way down the line how are those fake boobs gonna look? Probably like 2 hanging balls off your chest. xD
If you're still planning on doing it, take into consideration all the other stuff that comes with it.

I've had a few experiences with augmented breasts. None of them were bad experiences.1

Just to clear up the controversy, real boob, fake boobs who cares! They're wonderful.1

Not me, but an aunt of mine had a silicone implant done after a mastectomy (she's totally fine now, no worries) and the silicone went bad somehow and she had to have it removed! What a hassle! So really, my point is, make sure you go with top quality stuff to reduce that kind of thing from happening.
ALSO, does the person so any tissue based augmentation? My mom just had her mastectomy and when we were talking with the plastic surgeon she said that if you don't want silicone, they can MOVE FAT/MUSCLE FROM THE STOMACH!!!! Or swing it around from the back! How freaken cool is that? Again, not sure if your Dr. does that kind of think but it's something else to think about.
Good luck!
Those types of things can be done for reconstructions, not so much for augmentation.

I went pretty large on my augmentation (610 ccs and went from 36B-36DD) I would do it again in a heartbeat!!! They never felt hard or fake. If your boobs are something you feel insecure about there is nothing you can do to work them and make them grow. It sounds like you have worked hard for your body and I think boob jobs can help self esteem considerably!!! Since you arent going too big, you probably wont have to worry about a fake feeling and you sound like you found a good doc! I went over the muscle and have had absolutely no problem with any pec exercises but if you go under the muscle just ask your doc if it will cause problems. Good luck in your decision, no matter what you decide you are beautiful!!!2

I have that. Worked hard for it. Wish it was possible to work hard for boobs too. Benching and chest work is part of my program and it does nothing...since I know someone will probably come on this thread and suggest that. Just looks disproportionate at this point. People always commenting on, "What happened to your boobs!?" and stuff like that. They literally think I got a breast reduction lol
An honest perspective... Keep it natural. Sounds like you have accomplished awesome things fitness wise. Truth be told you have to be comfy with your body and how it looks. Large breast present challenges even back issues. I read you desire a moderate augmentation but there are still risks. I will not try to tell you I now how it t feels because I do not. I can tell you what I believe which is natural physiques are much more attractive to me than augmented ones. And I believe most people think the same.
Best of luck!1 -

As someone who works in law enforcement, guys if you want to keep your woman don't buy her new bewds. We get so many domestics where the male pays for the surgery and then things go down hill quick due to all the new attention.2

My boobs are the first place I lose and gain weight. I have been anywhere from B cup to cups I didn't know existed when I was pregnant. So after many bulk/cuts, pregnancy, breastfeeding and age, let's just say I am not happy with mine. It's a trade off for me, either a lean body or nice boobs. I have considered doing something about it, but right now it doesn't bother me enough. I will reconsider when I'm in my mid 40s.
Whatever you do, make the decision based on what would make you happy, but also know not everything about us has to be perfect.0 -
Does anyone consider what the costs financially are for a boob job?0
-
I don't think I could ever get surgery like that personally (too scared) but I've thought about it like Hmmm... I also feel (very) unhappy with my breasts. When I lose weight they definitely shrink, but when I gain weight voila they're full and big (maybe not always so perky) but definitely more volume when I'm heavier vs. thinner. I'm back into my B cup bras and even some of those are a little 'gappy' in the front which is very very depressing. I certainly don't like how they look naked. It's hard to feel good about yourself when that one thing just stares back at you glaringly and makes you feel unattractive and gross.
I know people say "oh, get a good bra" ... ok well what about when they bra comes off? See, that's the problem!2 -

Nah, thanks.1 -

This is the heart of the issue for me. It doesn't matter how many loved ones or strangers tell me that those things that I'm really dissatisfied with physically are attractive or even just not that bad - those are the things my eyes immediately gravitate toward and my mind is extremely critical when assessing.0
