<\/a><\/p>\n You\u2019ve been thinking about it and you are finally ready to go through with it. A boob job has always been something you\u2019ve considered. However, you don\u2019t know the first thing about the surgery and the fact that the procedure can be called a surgery already scares you.<\/p>\n Well, indeed there are things worth knowing before any woman decides to go forward with breast enlargement. Below are 10 things I wish I\u2019d known before breast augmentation – and I know you do too:<\/p>\n 1. You will probably want another surgery\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n A lot of women have the first surgery and think, \u201cI\u2019m done,\u201d but then go ahead and get another. First off, breast implants are not permanent, they don\u2019t last forever. So, you might need another surgery in say 10 years, just to get new implants. Anything could happen; one of the implants could start leaking or develop a scar shell that would deform it. In both cases the only option is to get a new set.<\/p>\n Most women don\u2019t like the outcome once they have the surgery. You might watch Botched and think that it\u2019s packed with crazy women who just don\u2019t know when to stop. On the contrary, these are genuine people who want to better their results, only they get sucked into it and turn it into an obsession.<\/p>\n 2. You can try out various sizes before settling on one<\/strong><\/p>\n Wouldn\u2019t it be great if you could see how you look with different sized breasts, before actually deciding what you want? Sizers are neoprene sacks filled with beads that you can use to check different sizes.<\/p>\n “The bags are stuffed in the bra to get the size you want.\u00a0Your implant size is determined predominantly by your existing measurements. Staying within those boundaries ensures a safe, natural result every time”, says Brisbane\u2019s leading Breast Surgeon Dr. Ian Chinsee<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n \u00a03.\u00a0<\/strong>It\u2019s a lot of pain; don\u2019t underestimate it\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n If someone tells you that they didn\u2019t feel pain after the operation, either they don\u2019t have a nervous system or they are downright lying. The pain is stupefying; the slightest movement causes a lot of agony. The pain doesn\u2019t stay for long though – you can push through it. By the third day, it will begin to subside but, still, get ready for the pain. The psychological preparedness is everything. I did not know just how bad it was until it hit me.<\/p>\n 4. Ask the doctor anything you need to ask – before the surgery\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n It sounds like something that should occur to you naturally, no? Here\u2019s the deal. You should do all the research you can, then arm yourself with questions about everything to do with the procedure. The time before you get the implants is the only time you have to cast out all fear and doubt.<\/p>\n 5. Your\u00a0breasts will not feel realistic for a while<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s like everything else new – the experience is different. Even someone who starts wearing glasses takes a while to get used to them. That\u2019s all there is to it. So, before you think you dislike the feeling, give it time.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
