Value of breast implants depends on degree of impairment from small breasts
This depends on the degree of impairment imposed by having small breasts.
For some women who have had breast cancer, the breast implants are priceless. For others that are stigmatized and self conscious about their appearance, they will state it was one of the best decisions they ever made.
On the other hand, there are other individuals for whom the expectations are unrealistic and the surgery was not worth it.

Most women who have breast implants are very satisfied.
In our practice women have breast implants for several reasons:
1. to look better in clothes or bathing suits
2. to restore the volume and shape they had before kids
3. to achieve a size they never had before
4. to have improved self-esteem
The vast majority of patients are thrilled they proceeded and they are our best word of mouth referral source.

Breast implant worth is in the eye of the beholder
Prior to implant surgery, you should do all of your homework and get all of the information you can handle. After this, discuss your concerns with an appropriate board certified plastic surgeon.
If you feel like implants will give you the change that your desire and are willing to accept some possible risks, then you will love them.
Best wishes,
