Have your wife check out my friends site. Www deliciousdames.com

It's a site to help women accept who they are as they are. She. Is located near Hollywood.
Unless it is reconstructive no need to to do it. Just my $.02

The guy asks for advise & as per usual which I've noticed a lot more lately - we get the post way off track by people offering there point rather than what the OP asked for inc a pic of some celeb with the body of a 12 year old school boy ..... !!!

Anyway man - no expert but check out this site & make sure you do lots of research. There was a fairly high profile in the UK\ Scotland a few years ago. The ex-captain of the scotland football team's wife went in for a cosmetic procedure - I think a tummy tuck. Complications set in - she was really ill for a few years & eventually died. I think it was due to the surgeon they used - who wasn't the best. If your wife does decide to go for it - make sure you really, really do your research

Do you think Kate Hudson should get implants, then, so she'll look like real woman? Heaven forbid she should be so unfortunate to have breasts that make her look like a schoolboy.

The OP did ask if anyone had experiences to share. That's an important part of making a decision. I for one think it's very, very important to look at all sides of the issue - but with breast implant surgery, it's a little trickier to find information that hasn't tended to be glamorized.

To the OP - try an image search for "complications breast augmentation." Most complications aren't life threatening, but they do require more surgery.

As for women regretting that they went "too big" - it does happen. And the bigger the implant, the more likely it is to have problems, especially with lasting numbness and discomfort. I've talked to women who have had implants who now can't stand to have their breasts touched.

Of course, finding a board-certified plastic surgeon is the way to go, but they're not infallible. Their idea of what looks right for you might not match what you had envisioned. And the best surgeon out there can't guarantee against unacceptable scarring and permanent loss of sensation.

No implant feels like a real breast, either.

Very well said Lisa.

To the OP, if your wife does decide to go forward with this I hope everything works out for the best.

The procedure leaves a scar and to my trained eye as a lecherous git look quite grotesque. They bring to mind the great line in the 'History Boys' referring I believe to Da Vinci's nudes--"...they look like men with tits put on with ice cream scoops.."
You might save a few bob by having her see a therapist.
The amusing 'bolt ons' sums it up!

Agreed. I'd add if they are larger (and therefore heavier), they can cause back pain as well.

AMEN Sister!!! Personally as a woman and as a medical professional. I would never undergo surgery or anesthesia unless I was ill and it was required.

Many women feel the need to look a certain way because they are insecure. Some women are confident and want to have augmentation, but in my experience, most women who want plastic surgery, feel insecure, for whatever reason.

I would certainly urge you to discuss this at length with your wife and make sure that this is what she really wants. It wouldn't even be a bad idea to see a therapist or even wait a few months and really discuss the issue. Make sure she really wants this. It isn't a rush...encourage her to take her time, talk to other women and get references on good surgeons.

Once it is done, you don't want to have repeated surgeries to correct things she isn't happy with. Best of luck!

I consider myself a "breast man", and I absolutely hate fake ones. Silicone is legal again in the US and those seem to look and feel better than saline.

I'll add another celebrity who is nearly flat but stunning. Selma Blair. I think she is one of the hottest celebs even though she isn't busty.

AMEN AMEN AMEN Dude! And RIGHT ON!!! I am a CERTIFIED Boob man... I studied the material, took the written test, the "but" Men and the "leg" men were down the hall taking their tests at the same time and they said their's was difficult, but believe me, ours was not easy! Anyway, I passed with a 96% and proudly display my certifcation (As a matter of fact, my certification is due again this year, have to start studying again...).

I understand the image thing, and agree with Lisa, there is a lot of pressure on women these days to look... "perfect." I get that, but the whole attraction men have to breasts is.. the... Passion. When I see fake ones, it's an instant turn off. I've dated a couple women that had them, but it was NOT exciting, sensuous, nor passionate. Heck, if I want to feel that, I mine as well buy a hot-water bottle. I would much rather .. uh... "enjoy" a woman's REAL and im-perfect breast then fake nice-looking ones... it's just so... fake... plastic... not really her. It's the ... Passion that makes it sensuous.. sexy.. It's an incredible turn on!!!! It's the... the... the... uh.... uh....

I... uh... I have to go now.... uh... to the bathroom... yeah,, that's it... I'm uh... going to the bathroom....

Eh, not always. Some women just want back what they used to have, before babies and breastfeeding. These are the women you work with, or who you see at the grocery store, or who are your wife's buddies, who you might never guess had had it done. Just ordinary gals.

I think it's interesting (in a good way) that most of the men here aren't keen on the idea of implants, preferring the real thing, no matter the size. I wish my sisterhood could understand that being loved for who they are is best.

Loving yourself makes it much easier for those that love you to do just that.

Interesting point, I sometimes think gals have misconceptions of what guys want. You can add skinny with the idea of wanting implants too.

But then, I think we guys all think we know what women want as well - e.g. "sizing" each other back in school which is definitely not what women want!

It could be for countless reasons. Not everyone getting implants are trying to look like Pamela Anderson.

How is it that Lisa is now becoming the Guru of this forum. Too many times now I have seen her hitting the nail on the head with her answers.

In the next two weeks my wife will be going in for a little tweaking after having realized the effects of breastfeeding our two little ones.

I have never been a breast man, so I do not really care. I actually thought she should get the MOP DJ she has been wanting for a couple of years now instead. She, however, is not happy with her current look. Combined with the fact that she has felt self-conscious about her small presentation for 40 years now, it became something that was important for her to change.

I think, for her, it is not about getting more attention or addressing underlying self esteem issues. She wants to be able to go into a store and buy a blouse off the rack (no pun) and not have to worry about it being tailored for an average bust size. That's all she is doing - getting to average.

It was really enlightening to go through the selection process and seeing before and after pictures. I thought she was being silly about her desire to have it done until I noticed that nearly every "before" picture was already much bigger than she is. None of the women that this surgeon did looked fake or abnormally large. In fact, this doctor does not do the "stripper jobs" as a matter of principle.

Here is the really interesting part of the story. My wife is a doctor herself. She researched this for years before deciding whether or not to do it. If she feels it is safe for her then I would have to agree as she does not even like to take any form of pain medication for fear of side effects.

As far as comments of any lack of self esteem --- Well, I am still trying to figure out why the heck she married me. Seriously though, she is stunningly gorgeous, incredibly intelligent, and the best person I have ever met. I am incredibly lucky to have her in any shape or form.
