I am 28 and this december will be two
years since I got my implants. I
absolutley love them! Would I have gotten
them at 18? No, but if you have the
support of your family and friends go for
it! Just get lots of research on the
doctor you choose. There are so many
horror stories out there, but most are due
to doctor error.
The one thing I stress to everyone who
asks me about mine is be prepared for
pain! Lol! My mom and I both took a week
off work and I needed her more than I
thought I would. I couldn't even go to
the bathroom by myself! After a full week
I was better, still sore but able to
function.
Best of luck to you!

Hi, i've heard it is very painful and can
result in complications, such as them
breaking inside you and nipples leaking,
etc. You seem very young and are still
developing emotionally--i guess that never
stops--but maybe give it sometime and you
may realize you love your body the way it
is.

Hi i've also heard that it's painful, and
at 18 your still developing. Your breasts
continue to grow until your 26. Also with
some women pregnancy will enlarge your
breasts permanately, though not always. I
have a friend who was barely an a cup at
17 and now at 24 she's wearing a c. So I
say wait a couple years. You can always
use silicon breasts under your bra to
enhance your bust until you decide for
sure that surgery is the way you want to
go, but once you get the surgery you can't
go back.

Research Your Surgeon Posted: 09-13-04 04:02am
The only advice I can give is make sure
you research you surgeon and his
experienced try to find out what his done,
how much breast implants his done if they
all went well no muck ups and all that ect
cause theres a lot of them that do very
bad jobs. So try to research thats the
only advice I kan give you.
