Has anyone had breast implants done in Adelaide?

[jasonindustries96]

Hi, my 22 yr old daughter is looking at getting implants done.  Sadly she has never developed hardly at all.  I dont blame her looking into this but concerned if its safe etc.  She is a uni student to cant afford too much.  Can anyone tell me what dr they had and how much it cost?

I looked into it, for what was recommended for me, it was around 8,000.00 in 2011. I looked at a friend who had them, didn't much care for what I seen, and decided I'd live with what I had. Also, If I want to go bigger for a day or so, depending on how big, I have two pairs of forms that just rest in a bra. If I get tired of all that weight, I can take them out easy enough without another surgery. Under a shirt or top, they move and feel like the real thing. I have better uses for the 8 grand assuming I even had 8 grand.

OMG, really? 

Sadly? 

Different strokes, I suppose.

She could come for a three week holiday to California, and get a pair for 8k. 

My friend just had hers done in July. Every time I see her I am shocked by them. 

May I suggest wearing a bra with gel inserts for a year or so instead? At least she will get an idea of what it will feel like after the surgery. You couldn't pay me enough money to go through that type of surgery.

Personally I like them, a lot 😉

Seriously..... I know some females that have had them done, I would say I think it would make her feel better about herself and maybe a little more confident as a young lady.

just something else to think about

If you are unable to boost her self-esteem, perhaps a psychologist would help.  It certainly would be a lot cheaper.

Also what you don't hear about from the industry are all the ones that have gone wrong and the amount of women regretting it.

You hear about how successful it is because that is what you think and want to believe.

Apart from the medical complications, I am boy and unless medically required by someone, I wouldn't consider someone with breast implants as a future mother of my children. Don't mean to be blunt but I think your daughter may alienate herself from many people with the right priorities in life.

I and many of the nice people I am surrounded by consider a person based on their behaviour and who they are, not what nature dealt them. A persons mind and personality is what is attractive and I sincerely hope your daughter sees that more than the wishful thinking of our far too image conscious society of today.

What is to be considered are the things that can be lost, not the things that can be gained.

$8,000???? Procedure could go wrong.  New clothes.   What happens when she wants to breastfeed babies?

What else could she spend her money on?  How about money towards her HECS.  Savings towards an actual asset i.e. real estate.

Seriously, I wasnt very big before having children; but following breastfeeding 3 of them and my body "maturing", the breasts and hips became more rounded.

Vanity could be expensive in her lifetime, moreso if medical procedures are involved.

That is the problem.  She would become a "lady" instead of remaining a real woman.

Well said, and from a males perspective.
