Don't feel stupid. Most plastic surgeons will do a free consultation. Go see one and see what they say.

I work as a surgery coordinator for a plastic surgeon's office so let me help you out with this. As far as dealing with your family's negative attitudes towards cosemtic surgery, I really can't help you. But, as far as wanting info on breast augments, I can definitely help you. Please don't feel stupid. I see many many women who find that cosmetic surgery to enhance their features makes them feel a lot better about themselves. The best thing to do if first research breast augments (a reconstruction is where you've had perhaps a mastectomy or injury to the breast and it needs to be corrected--in most cases, this is not considered cosmetic). Read about risks, sizes, type of implants, etc. If you still want to proceed, then book a consult with a local plastic surgeon. Some consults are free, and others probably charge a small fee. Our office charges $60. The surgeon will go over all the risks and should even have assorted sizes of sample implants that you can feel and "try on" to see what size you want to be. Deciding to have cosmetic surgery is your decision and not anyone else's.

I understand how your family's opinion means so much, but you have to live with yourself everyday. I believe that we should all be happy with what God gave us, but I also consider getting some work done. I would say, consult a surgeon. Maybe after doing that it will help you decide if it is the right decision for you. Just talking to the Doctor does not make anything set in stone. Weigh your options carefully and then make your decision.
Good luck to you.

The only good reasons for having cosmetic breast surgery are personal reasons. It has to be about you, what you want and the way you want your body to be. You have to make an informed decision about it as opting for cosmetic breast surgery is a very personal decision.

I wouldn't because there are most likely alot of people who like your body the way it is and they might lose some respect for you if you do get implants so i would stay with the body God gave you cause he too thinks it perfect.
