Breast Implants for 19 Year Old Daughter

[Anonymous]

I'd tell her she needs to have kids first because they'll get bigger. She needs to be financially prepare to do the surgery / replacement every 10 years too.

Nope. This is what padded and push up bras are for.

Parents can provide support in recovery while still disapproving of the decision.

I would ask her to genuinely consider waiting until she's 21 to give her body a little more time to develop. She may very well change her mind in that time (I did!). If she still wants to go ahead, make absolutely sure she does ALL the research. She needs to be prepared for any possible complication (and there are many). You should have her look into Breast Implant Illness and the aftermath of women who have had to go through removal after experiencing capsular contracture, infection or BII. Some women are left with some pretty awful scars and deformities post removal and she should go in with eyes wide open about this possibility.

And most importantly, she should meet with multiple surgeons, review their work in patient photos, understand their aesthetic, ask many questions at each consultation and then choose the absolute best surgeon she can afford. If you're involved in this process, don't let her skip any of those steps.

I would support her and make sure she got the best possible surgeon for her money. My experience may be atypical though. I had tuberous breasts (congenital deformity) and getting them corrected surgically helped my self esteem tremendously. My mother didn’t bring it up herself but was supportive when I wanted to have the surgery at 18.

If you would support it, how do you get wife or significant other to support it?

Would really depend on how they look currently.

Small boobs are favored by men actually, IF they have small areolas and nipples to match and are perky.

If big areolas pepperoni style, then implants can make them look much better obviously.

Just encourage her to only go 1 cup size larger, so an A cup if really flat, or B cup if there's something there. Going too large too young is where the problems happen later on.

This. Age 18 is way too young, unless she plans to have a career in the entertainment industry.

A relative of mine had implants at age 24; she then went onto have three children and regretted the implants because her breasts became huge and hurt her back. Had to get the implants removed while taking care of three kids.

No one told her she would have to get the implants redone on a regular basis, and they were already leaking fluid into her body.

So weird that I call troll. Or Trump. Oh, wait, same thing.

Oh look another Democrat that thinks about Trump 24/7. I f’ing love this level of liberal tears.

this is obviously a troll, in response to the other weird post about a 19 year old son who wanted a chin implant and the mom was weighing in.

Ultimately, i think it's weird all these parents are saying "they have the money for it" because i highly doubt their 19 year olds have $10k just lying around but for their parents giving them cash and/or paying for all of their living expenses. Because there's no logical reason a 19 year old has $10k lying around. My guess these parents are way more enmeshed and subsidizing these kids than they are admitting, and probably also contributing to the self esteem issues too. I suspect parents who pay for their kids 100% and don't make them contribute any costs to anything (ie don't make them contribute to college or rent or whatever) highly correspond with parents who weird and indirectly encourage their kids to get plastic surgery. Just my guess.

Do you think that her father knows what his daughter’s nipples look like? A father should have no opinions about his daughter’s breasts.

I was flat at 19, still now after 3. It’s her body; she can decide.
