| Cosmetic Surgery of Breasts |

The development of breasts is one of the first outward signs of transition from girlhood to womenhood. The breasts symbolize sexual attraction and are means of nurturing children. It is no wonder they are a focal point of attention for both women and men.
Women want to alter the shape and size of their breasts for many reasons and should tell their physician what they desire before embarking on surgical procedures. Physicians should clear up any misconceptions about the surgery and its effect on body image and ensure that there are no unrealistic expectations about what the surgery can do.
The reasons for a breast change play an important role in whether or not the outcome will be satisfactory. It is unrealistic to expect a breast change to maintain or establish an interpersonal relationship, obtain a job promotion, save marriage, or change of a lover's behavior. There is no such thing as an emergency breast change .The decision to change the breasts should be self motivated. The surgeries which are undertaken to improve breasts are basically meant for three kind of problems. |

Unlike augmentation which is done purely for cosmetic reasons. Breasts reduction(Reduction Mammaplasty) is performed because of frequent functional problems which neck shoulder and back discomfort poor posture and rashes under the breasts.
Large, pendulous breasts are often unattractive because gravity causes them to lose their shape and the nipples are lowered. It is also difficult to find clothes and bras that fit and to enjoy physical activity. Beyond these physical problems, psychological stress may be suffered, due to the attention large breast attract. |
