Base it on Your Preference, Not Someone Else’s
Breast augmentation is an important decision, and not one to take lightly. Choosing a larger or smaller implant size just to please your significant other or impress your friends is not recommended. Remember: it’s your body, and you will have to live with the consequences of your choices, not them.
Instead of focusing on others’ expectations, real or perceived, think about what you want breast implants for. Is it boost your confidence with a more substantial size increase? Or to balance out your curves with a subtle size increase? Whatever the reason, make sure it’s your own. This will help you find the size that matches your desires, not just theirs.
Take into Consideration Your Lifestyle
This is often an overlooked point when thinking about getting breast implants: how they fit into your lifestyle. For example, are you an avid runner who schedules their life in 5ks and half marathons? If so, choosing breast implants that are too large may get in the way and even prove painful from carrying extra weight.
Playing sports regularly and having a physically demanding job are also reasons to consider a smaller breast implant size. Keep in mind that implant size will also affect how your clothes fit and look on you—more points to consider when choosing the right implant size.
