Benefits of Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is a popular cosmetic procedure. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, hundreds of thousands of women undergo some form of the procedure annually. The reasons for breast augmentation vary according to the needs of each patient. Those who undergo the procedure may experience one or more of the following benefits.

Improved Self-Esteem

If you are dissatisfied with your appearance in or out of your clothes, your postoperative look may provide a huge boost in self-confidence. As you age, your breasts may get smaller and begin to sag. Breast augmentation can make you look younger, which can make you feel better about yourself. Studies have consistently shown that women typically experience higher levels of self-esteem after the procedure. This improved self-esteem often translates into a higher level of sexual arousal and greater satisfaction.

Better Symmetry

Many women have breasts that are disproportionately small as well as one that is slightly larger or smaller than the other. This can be caused by micromastia, growth spurts during puberty and uneven estrogen levels. These conditions can have a noticeable effect on the breasts’ appearance. Breast augmentation can correct these conditions and give your body a fuller, more balanced and symmetrical figure.

Clothes Fit Better

Many styles of clothing are designed for those with a size C cup or larger. Breast augmentation may enable your clothes to fit better and improve your outward appearance. This can improve your self-confidence and quality of life.

Improved Look After Life Changes

Breast augmentation can help restore your appearance after many different types of life changes. Following a significant weight loss, your breasts may no longer have their full, perky shape. This procedure can give you a fuller chest while allowing you to retain your new smaller waistline. It can also help restore the appearance of your breasts after pregnancy. Although it typically involves more than augmentation, reconstructive surgery may be able to help women who have undergone mastectomy, allowing them to reclaim their figure.
