Breast implants have the ability to enhance your appearance by improving the size, shape and firmness of your breasts, correcting an imbalance in symmetry and improving your self-confidence, but breast implants will not change who you are so you must have realistic expectations of what breast augmentation surgery can achieve.
A Good Candidate for Breast Implants
You may be a good candidate for breast augmentation surgery if:
You are over 18 years of age
You are not pregnant or breastfeeding
You have always felt your breasts were too small
You are in good general physical and emotional health
Your breasts have lost firmness and contour after a pregnancy and breastfeeding
A significant weight loss has altered the size and firmness of your breasts
One of your breasts is noticeably smaller than the other
Your childbearing years are behind you
A healthy woman with a good self-image is an excellent candidate for breast implant surgery if she eats a healthy diet and participates in regular physical activity.
Not a Good Candidate for Breast Implants
You are not a good candidate for breast implants if:
You are under 18 years of age
You are being pressured by others to have the breast augmentation surgery
You are in poor physical health
You feel bigger breasts will solve all your problems
Young women under the age of eighteen are not good candidates for breast augmentation surgery simply because your breasts may continue to develop well into your early twenties. Physical maturity may come with no need for surgical intervention to improve the size and shape of your breasts. The decision to have breast implants should be yours alone to improve your appearance, and to make you feel good about yourself knowing breast implants are not the answer to a better life just better breasts.
