How Do I Know if Surgery is Right for Me?
I am 5'4', 130 lbs, and currently 32a. I have been thinking off and on about breast augmentation since I was a teen. Now that I am 23 I know my breasts aren't going to grow anymore and I just want my chest and shape to be more rounded and womanly. How do I decide if this is something that bothers me enough to pursue? I have been thinking about it a lot recently.

It sounds as if you are a good candidate for an augmentation.

Choosing to have surgery
Only you know if surgery is a good option for you. I would suggest going to a few consultations to see if you are a good / appropriate candidate for surgery. If you are, then you can decide if you want to have surgery. No one NEEDS to have surgery.
