Would you ever do it? Would you have it done for purely cosmetic purposes?

Oh, I don't think so. I've never really been disappointed in my body as I have aged. Maybe this is more a women's question with the pressure they feel to look good.

I'm happy. Not movie-star good-looking, but okay for me. Hey, those wrinkles come with wisdom. Cool

So, unless I am horribly disfigured in a car accident or something, I'll pass.

If I had the money I would have my boobs done. I wouldn't have them made any bigger, just perked up a bit.

I watch a lot of plastic surgery shows, and boob jobs tend to look really goofy afterwards... I'd rather just age gracefully and look good for my age instead of trying to be something i wasn't. but then again, if I was disfigured in an accident... is there an echo in here?

I did had plastic surgery on my nose. Totally love my new nose. I think it is wrong if it is too many surgeries, if the person is just too obsessed about looks or if you get in debt to pay plastic surgery. I had nose job so for me all I wanted was to have my nose straight, just like I had braces to have my teeth straight. I would never consider a boob job or increasing my calves, or taking my ribs out or anything like that as that I think is over the edge. I'm okay with face lifts, eye lifts or anything to remove wrinkles so as long as you can afford.

I don't see anything wrong with plastic surgery as long as you're interviewed and deemed a good candidate. There are definitely some areas of my body I'm unhappy with, but I don't think I would take the surgery route. Is it true that breast implants start to look weird after 20-ish years?

I always wanted a boob job when i was younger because i got boobs what seemed like forever after everyone else but when they came they made up for me waiting and now if i was going to have my boobs done it would be a reduction so i could go back to about an e cup

No, never. Well, maybe if something awful happened to me and I needed it, but not for just cosmetic reasons. I think it's damaging to society to make women think they are always supposed to look like their 20's... I internalize things too much. Everyone is fine the way they are!! I'm all for natural beauty. I'm pretty idealistic though, maybe my opinion will change when I actually start aging.... lol

I am just so happy to have a body that works, that does what i ask it to do without much complaint. I feel so lucky to be healthy. I guess that's why i don't really care what i look like too much. I try to look nice, put on a little eyeliner every now and then and maybe even gasp pick up my curling iron a few times a year, but as far as aging goes, I say bring it on. I am ready to accept whatever gifts nature has to offer. My five year old told me this morning how beautiful I am and it just doesn't get much better than that!

I wouldn't do it myself unless I really needed it, like if I was disfigured or anything. I don't see the point in people like Pamela Anderson/Jordan who get so much of it that they don't look real anymore. But I do think it's acceptable for someone who really needs it. I read something about a girl with no chest at all and she was actually starting to get depressed about it for not feeling like a woman, so she got a boob job. If that were me, I think I'd make the same decision.

In general, no. I am more than my physical appearance. Of course, other people don't see it that way. I recognize that society does base their value of individuals on physical appearance 98.99% of the time. If I was horribly disfigured, and downright disrespected because of that, I think I would do something about it because that is no way to go through life.

I have noted here in america this obsession for big boobs..

I wouldn't have boob implant but if my boobs were too big then I would do surgery to reduce them..

I agree. I've got lovely perky little A cups. The only reason I'd ever get breast enlargement was if I had none, or if I lost one due to breast cancer. Then I'd get one placed in to make them the same size again.

Been There Done That Posted: 09-27-07 20:33pm


HAve had breast implants for almost 8 years. I did this as my own option for having saggy breast feeding 42 year old boobs. Also had the extra chin lips out so I cna wear turtle necks now. I maintain my 130 lbs, size 10 jeans and have perky normal looking saline boobs...no ripples or deformaties and they look like MINE. One you reach a certain age and look into the mirror, and depression does not help...you've lost a tremendous amount of weight and want something to balance you out.....thats why I opted for this. My own damned business and they make me feel good about myself.............its not like i run around trying to get "jerry Beads"...and I'd never do anyhthng to my face...............Which could pass for 30 any ways.Thank you Mother for good genes!

saggy boobies is pretty sad looking so I could understand why you wanted that done. That's more terrible looking than no boobs.

So you had like no chin then? I can't wear turtlenecks, I feel like asfixiated with them lol! I love how they look thought..

and btw your moma's gene weren't that good if you needed this many surgeries..just kidding..

Like I said, I might change my mind once I'm not actually in my 20's.... lol But I like my boobs, I'm a b cup. They are big enough to have a little cleavage but not so big I ever have to worry about them popping out or doing anything dangerous. Plus I look really hot in really low cut shirts/dresses, and not slutty hot, just hot.
