I've had exs who didn't like my small chest. One wanted me to keep wearing multiple bras so my chest appears bigger; another wanted me to get implants. I never got it. It made me feel like because of my small chest, I couldn't have a decent relationship. Now, I am more accepting of my chest and dump anyone not okay with how my body is.

Good for you! You deserve someone who loves and appreciates you as you are, not who is so fixated on the size of your breasts. Wearing multiple bras like that sounds so uncomfortable.

@@nicolelavigne1700god yes. I used to do it growing up because I didn’t want small boobs but it’s what god gave me . But it really sucks and took A LOT of confidence building when i heard my ex tell me my boobs could be bigger. He said it “jokingly” lies they’re never joking until they see your reaction is upset. I’ve never told him anything on his body needed to be bigger.

Hi I used to sell bra's lingerie party plan. I don't know what the big deal is about wearing breast enhancing underwear. I would wear breast enhancing bra's to get a dolly parton effect - it was fun. Its not like he wanted you to lose weight, get nose job teeth changed etc. Wearing different underwear for me wouild not be a deal breaker. Cloths you buy anticipates an average breast size.

[@josephinemiller4780]

My implants were about 23 yrs old when I ended up with breast cancer. Not one of my medical team suggested that I have the implants removed before going through treatments. I went through seven months of chemotherapy and then 30 days of radiation. After the radiation that breast implants capsular contracture got more dense. So dense that I could no longer pull up my breast skin. The capsular contracture had fused to my skin. It was my worst nightmare. Fast forward to last year, after 7 yrs of being cancer free I found a plastic surgeon and she removed both implants and, to save me from further complications, she decided to remove all of the scar tissue. As a result part of my breast caved in. Imagine carving out a piece of pie, that’s how my breast looks currently. It’s very gruesome looking and my plastic surgeon did an awesome job. Unfortunately the other breast still looks the same size as when I had the implants it’s just drooping a lot. The next step is to have a mastectomy on the breast that had the cancer and have the DIEP Flap breast reconstruction using skin and fat from my stomach (tummy tuck). And i’ll have a breast reduction on the other side. As scary and as excited as I am about this, which will happen in July, I now wish I had never gotten breast implants to begin with. But one never knows what the future holds. All I know is if any of you out there have breast implants and you end up with breast cancer, please have your implants removed before radiation as radiation will cause major complications. If my plastic surgeon had just removed the implants and not the scar tissue and then put new implants in, the radiation that is in the scar tissue would get very hard fast. It’s a recipe for disaster. At first my plastic surgeon was going to leave the scar tissue to give me volume but when she saw how much there was she decided right then in there that she needed to remove it all. She is the best and I’m so glad I found her.

Being a breast cancer survivor alone is a crazy thing to live through and then having to go through all of the surgeries, I can't even imagine. I had breast surgery when I was 13 (yep, a freshman in HS), where they removed a golf ball size benign fibroadenoma and that scar alone drives me crazy when it gets cold out!!

[@ashleyshafferfitness]

Hearing stories like Hope's and watching videos like this reminds me of how thankful I am that I didn't have any complications during or after my augmentation. I'm so glad she finally was able to get better results and feel better. I think these stories scare many people away from having procedures done, but there a far more success stories, they simply aren't discussed as often. I'm in no way saying that plastic surgery is for everyone, or that people should rush to have surgery before doing their research and really weighing their options, but people also shouldn't be shamed for wanting to feel better about themselves.

[@CrankyBarista]

Complications can happen years after surgery. You're supposed to get implants replaced every 10-15 years so leakage or complications dont happen... that being said, with every surgery you have a higher risk of complications. So no matter what, the odds are not on your side.

[@ashleyshafferfitness]

@crankybarista9306 very true, complications can occur at any time. That's why it's best to take all the right precautions such as placement under the muscle, incision placement, choosing the right size, following aftercare instructions, etc. Obviously there is no guarantee that an issue won't occur, so there is always risk. Newer implants don't require replacement as often. They are made to rupture less easily. They aren't lifetime devices, but they are made now to reduce the number of replacements. There is no need to replace them unless they rupture or develop capsular contracture. I don't disagree with you, the more surgeries the more risk, but there are plenty of people who haven't had to undergo multiple replacements.

[@CrankyBarista]

@@ashleyshafferfitness hmm. The research Ive done and all the plastic surgery documentaries Ive watched have all said that replacement after "X" amount if years is definitely necessary.... problem or not. Could be 3 things: 1) its not 100% necessary, but doctors say that to avoid liabilty law suits and stay on the side of caution 2) its not 100% neccessary, but they say that as a way to make money so ppl pay for procedures more than necessary 3) it is true, but not every doctor agrees with it or they unaware that it is necessary. No matter what, I hope you did it through a reputable surgeon and everything stays intact and healthy. ❤

[@ashleyshafferfitness]

@@CrankyBarista a lot of the research does say that an implant's lifespan is an average of 10-15 years. I read a lot of that when I was doing my research. I have noticed that much of the newer research is supporting that they can last longer, over 20 years, but it of course depends on the type of implant and the physiology of the person. I discussed it with all of the surgeons I talked to when deciding and most said the same - that there isn't a need to replace them if they haven't ruptured or a complication hasn't developed, but they should be monitored closely as they get older. I think you're right with the reasons why they may suggest needing to get them replaced more often. They definitely want to avoid lawsuits, and of course the more procedures you need the more money they make so those can definitely be factors. Every doctor is different. Thank you, I hope I remain healthy and complication-free as well. The surgeon I ended up choosing is board certified and has been a performing these surgeries for almost 30 years and did an excellent job so I trust him.

[@kaiapparent2653]

sometimes our bodies reject things we put in them, which, tbh, is what they’re meant to do. it’s just like piercings, some people’s bodies just reject them every single time no matter how clean they are and how they take care of them. great video, dr :)

It's like organ transplant too. But most women who did these things didn't research it "medically" but rather just by success story testimonials.

Sure, but I assume you have worn makeup, dyed your hair, etc. We all enhance or change our natural, "mother nature" looks to a certain extent. Some women choose to do that in a more invasive way, and there's nothing wrong with that, especially for women who go through chemo that shrinks their breasts or need reconstructive surgery for other reasons.

[@caroljeanscott5571]

@@sandydog426 I do not wear makeup and I have never dyed my hair but I do go and have my hair cut. I do not have botox because I do not have facial wrinkles. I do believe in plastic surgery. If I had a mastectomy due to breast cancer then I would be going to a plastic surgeon inquiring about breast expanders. I am not perfect looking because the left side of body is 90% paralyzed and so my left side is smaller than my right side due to an illness I had at three and a half months old. I had 4 major surgeries by a plastic surgeon and an orthopedic surgeon. No doctor can fix my problems and I have accomplished so much despite my disability. Looks isn't everything and I am glad I am not looking in the mirror and seeing my imperfections.

Stuff like this is why, unless dysphoria gets really bad and i get my breasts reduced or removed for my mental health, I want to avoid any kind of surgery. I'd be scared of it going wrong despite many previous medical procedures.

make sure u do your research on the doctor if that’s what you eventually want. most likely you will be fine if they aren’t sketch. but either way your completely valid regardless so do what feels right in your heart

[@madeleine61509]

This complication specifically is near impossible when doing a breast reduction, as reducing breast size does not involve putting a foreign object into the body. That isn't to say that there are no possible complications, but that's at least one fewer. 😊

[@ZephariusBe]

My best advice would be to shop around - It's better to have to wait longer to save up more and see a reputable doctor who can give you the results you want than it is to cut corners for convenience or to save money. For provincial health care, I had to see a specific surgeon. He botched it, I had to get a second surgery for revisions and although I'm not as dysphoric, I sometimes get very uncomfortable to see how uneven they are. Pectoral exercises seem to be helping but that's difficult for my disabilities. I SHOULD have went through the court system to see a doctor in the US or saved money to get it done in the US if the government didn't cover it, but I wanted them gone so bad that I didn't think about it hard enough. Definitely something that I regret.

[@ZephariusBe]

@@madeleine61509 This is true, although some doctors do offer pectoral implants during your surgery to help them look more natural (since even cis men have a bit of breast tissue).

[@alliu6562]

I think someone above mentioned it already, but research is very important. It may cost more money, but try to always meet with the surgeon first and explain your goals to them, and listen to them explain their typical procedures. I had top surgery a few years ago, and I’m very happy how I am now. Actually, my dysphoria before top surgery wasn’t that bad either, but as soon as I got them removed I realized a huge weight had been lifted off my chest (literally and metaphorically lmao). My life has gotten a lot more comfortable after my gender affirming procedures, even if I wasn’t “badly off” previously. I didn’t have large breasts (I was between A and B) nor did I constantly suffer from dysphoria. It was one of those situations where I didn’t realize how much my life would be improved until I actually did it. Of course, it wasn’t a decision I made lightly either, and I really think anything to do with permanently altering your body should be considered with all of the pros and cons. In my case, the pros were a lot more than I ever expected. The only con really is that sometimes there’s phantom pains and a pins and needles type of sensation (not extreme or often, it’s like once a month or two months, especially during extreme weather), but these I believe are pretty common when a body part is removed. If you have the means and are interested and really think it can help you, I really do recommend looking into a procedure. Sometimes just the research process alone can help you make a final decision.

I had some complications similar to this with my implants. I kept telling the office there was something terribly wrong and they said I was overreacting, but one day I couldn’t deal with the pain and they very grudgingly agreed to take a look just to let me know I was fine, as soon the surgeon lifted my breast at the suture line my skin ripped open and the implant mixed with blood and pus came through.

The shapes are completely different! And my bra fits crooked now. They made it sound like once I had the reconstruction on both breasts, they would be beautiful! I have pitting on the Mastectomy side that he said he can’t fix, because the skin and tissue is so thin. I have swelling and constant discomfort from pain and numbness. I have to constantly wear an uncomfortable bra or it gets really swollen. My skin shows a redness around where the inside touches the implant. I haven’t gotten a nipple tattooed on yet on the mastectomy side yet, because healing is so slow. He now acts like they look great and exactly how they should!

Also another reason, when implants rupture, surgery to remove them is considered "medically necessary" and therefore now medical insurance which would not normally cover a cosmetic procedure, kicks in.

I accepted my small boobs then went on meds and now they're huge 😂 at the end of the day, boobs are boobs n they're awesome

[@Feimicha]

Excuse the cryptic comment, but I hope people would learn to accept aging and what comes with age, and eventually death. It’s a hard truth, and it’s valid to have genuine fear of the latter, but it will make that much of a difference when you start to make peace with it. I can’t exactly relate to Hope, and I likely would not go down her path because I have dysphoria over my chest (afab), but I don’t plan on getting surgeries (I’m fine with binders and medical tape) and I hope and pray for people that impulsively get them for their own supposed “betterment”.

[@kristagreen5961]

Oh my gosh!!! This poor lady

[@ashleycook300]

Dr. Youn! I have a question: You mentioned stratus being radiated pig skin. Does radiated pig skin also increase a persons risk for breast cancer?

[@jennifercaragianakos3075]

I got implants and got sick constantly for the 22 years. I had them until I finally realized the culprit and had them removed. So sad to see and I would’ve just taken them out!

[@angmo3782]

I had a very large and crooked nose and got a nose job 20 years ago. That made me really happy as before I was hiding my face profile, never pulled my hair back etc so I can understand the feeling you may have when a part of your body makes you really unhappy but... what I don't get is how can you want to try over and over again to put implants when your body reacted so horribly, wasn't she scared for her health at all?

[@luksi870]

I got mine done 1 month ago, they feel nice but I'm terrified of this happening to me, it costed a lot of money and time and dedication

[@carter5548]

You never posted the after photo for the breast surgery that you did.

[@KateCarew]

I’m just…holding my beautifully imperfect natural breasts watching this, I’m telling them that I promise I’ll just let them do their thing. Good job breasts, you get a little lower each year but it’s okay, I still love you, you’ve done a good job and at 45 instead of dreading signs of aging I’m just happy I’m alive and functioning. Life is so short, we don’t need to spend this blink on earth changing things that are fine the way they are. I used to entertain ideas about procedures here and there, and I’d like to microblade my brows, and maybe get some lip…filler (?) or blushing to even out unappealing asymmetry, I know with a significant investment, like low six figures I could be beautiful enough to make money off my looks but WHYYYYYY?? And can’t we all? There’s no such thing as ugly, just poor. It’s really true. I miss the wide range of faces we used to see. And yes, people have been altering looks since the dawn of human self awareness, but I watched Carrie and the Shining back to back a year or so ago and really loved looking at Sissy Spacek and Shelly Duvall’s faces. When I was a kid I thought both of them were odd looking and not really attractive, but seeing REAL faces, gloriously different and atypical in this era was totally refreshing. I was forlorn thinking about how homogenized faces and bodies have become. Sigh. Nothing unique being said but I can’t help wish folks would encourage each other to embrace that which we alone posses, rather than see it as weird maybe see it as special? Dunno. This pitiful comment is just a drop in the bucket of self acceptance.

[@lise7538]

Pretty people are better treated and have better lives. That's sad but that's it. Sure, we are on this earth for a blink of an eye, but spending it in a body you are confortable in will significantly increase your quality of life. If you are confortable with yourself good for you, though.

[@TrinaGallo]

One drop can start to fill that bucket! You don’t know how many of us held our naturals while reading your comment and appreciated them, although we’re all prone to gravity. Instead of looking at them & critiquing them, I held them and felt grateful. I agree with you regarding facial plastic surgery/ in office procedures. Why does everyone wanna look the same?!? It might be easy for me to say because I’ve never been “unattractive”, but as to the other comment: “Men (& women) decide where (Beauty) lies.” -Varys. I like to think we’ll be more advanced one day and look back at the whole concept of going under the knife 🔪 or being injected with a syringe 💉 just to look better as ludicrous.

[@CrystalCat24]

I love your comment!! (Except that last sentence - it sounds like you got your shit together! 💕)

[@nutzhazel]

@@lise7538 That's a clear misconceptions and not true though. Most women didn't just rely on pretty face and hot bodies to get far in life be in for career or starting a family. Only those in certain industries that needs to have great looks and bodies, like pageants, entertainment, modelling, and those along the lines. If you're just a common woman, going through such a procedure that requires long term care is not even necessary. it's bordering on insecurity. I'm no feminist, but there's nothing 'empowering" in superficial looks. And yes, I'm being "toxic" for speaking my mind :)

[@raumarsene9910]

@nutzhazel if it's not empowering to you, that's completely fine. But shaming others for doing what they want with their bodies is just rude. And I will argue against your first point. It has been found that attractive people generally get farther on their careers than the average person. Attractive people are more likely to have higher wages, get called for interviews more often, and for women, it was found that attractiveness played a part in getting more unfair monetary deals. It's pretty inaccurate to claim that looks don't play an implicit part in our success, not to say you have to be attractive to be successful, just that there is a bias.

[@zahrad7698]

four surgeries with one doctor? I was really thinking about implants. But NO. not worth it. thanks, doc ❤

[@gidgitvonlarue9972]

Alas the MINUTE you have an operation etc - your body has been 'invaded' and will fight against that. My emergency nurse friend told me that! She said she would NEVER have an operation unless absolutely needed.

[@heatherkelly5914]

Going under the muscle, what about the “double bubble” effect if you have some breast tissue already? Can you go under the muscle and not have that happen?

[@lottienonchalant8135]

I got under the muscle implants seven years ago and haven't had any issues whatsoever. Most people think they're real.

[@hannabass3693]

I like your lamp. Where did you get it.

[@lisae6725]

I'm wondering if people with known inflammatory diseases such as RA. and Lupus would have a higher chance of getting this type of reaction? I have Myofascial Pain Syndrome and Fibromyalgia and don't think any type of implant or procedure like Liposuction would be a good idea at all. My mom had so many adhesions from previous abdominal surgeries that they had to esentially remove a large portion of her stomach and she has to take the same vitamins that a Gastric Bypass person has to take for life because of this. My poor mom always ends up getting the worst case scenario of potential complications no matter what surgery she has.

What is difference between radiated pig skin and traditionaly tanned pig skin?

[@nathanielturner2577]

If I was this woman, I would just give up on having big breasts. It frankly seems more trouble than it’s worth.

[@KathyDoran-kl6bb]

Are there any complications that can happen when making breasts smaller from a natural state?

[@heatherhawirko5977]

Is there any way to predict whether or not someone's body would accept the breast implant or not, before surgery? :) Thank you so much for the video, Dr. Youn!

[@fireincarnation2]

An allergy test would pick up some signs of rejection but some would still reject.

[@theodorajackson6233]

I'm very lucky with what mother nature has given me i would never get plastic surgery on myself I would never do this to myself I'm glad I'm not addicted to plastic surgery at all I'd rather have my natural look than a plastic surgery look

[@TrinaGallo]

1st sign there’s gonna be a problem: she got plastic surgery in Texas 😂 FOUR TIMES! (Always go to LA, or my hood, NYC. If you’re gonna do it, at least have it done by the best!) NO OFFENSE TO ANY PLASTIC SURGEONS ELSEWHERE! Although I’ve never had plastic surgery or any in-office procedures, I’ve noticed a trend. Oh & NEVER get it in Florida! They have a plethora of unlicensed “surgeons”. (PLEASE do the Tummy-Tuck Amputee in FL from Botched! It’s CRAZY!)

[@tejas_jo]

West coast or east coast surgeon recommendations?

[@TrinaGallo]

@@tejas_jo Depends on the surgery. But YOU (or person having surgery) should be ready to RESEARCH! Before & after vids/ pics galore. No FREE consultations, etc. And trust your gut… & Dr. Youn’s words of wisdom: Two things you should NEVER go “inexpensive” on are sushi and plastic surgery 😂

[@antimatterbee9331]

And it is things like this that make me want to leave my mini-breasts alone. Besides, small chests are underrated. Less back pain, not to mention being able to wear sports bras and not deal with that nasty underwire(if you're anything like me, that is).

What can u use to regrow hair on the body

[@lilliananderson1986]

My implants are about 28 years old. They are textured. I would like to do explant surgery. I can’t locate the doctor that did them. I heard there was a recall for textured implants but I have no recollection who the manufacturer was. Any suggestions?

[@rachael.ramsey]

Love the greys anatomy izzie reference

[@asmodiaaidomsa3685]

Dr youn, please do a video on fat injection/hormone treatment and the downsides of it Im terrified of surgeries for the right reason buuut what about these? Ik fat injection can cause cancer sometimes but.. is hormone treatment sketchy/unsafe in any way? (This is for breast growth)

[@TheCornDavis]

I went through a uterine ablation and now I have to get my gallbladder removed... I'm not looking forward to it. I can't imagine going under 4+ times for something!

[@GLGC688]

Did he show the end result of the patient he did a similar procedure for? I think I missed that part.

When you show or talk about your patients I sometimes wonder if I've ever met one of them, living in SE Michigan

Doctor Youn, would you recomend hyaluronic acid and collagen fillers for breast and butt cheeks?

Is the warranty thing guaranteed on all implants? 😑

His patients outcome at 15:00 if any missed it.

It is all about lifestyle, that’s being said, healing from a cosmetic surgery, needs to be treated, same as any other recovery from injuries or surgeries So of your lifestyle is not on point Not eating right Not resting right Not exercising Don’t expect to heal normally Specially, if you consume a lot of sugar Drinking alcohol smoking ……. I’m saying this from a life experience 48 combat related injuries I wish you all a healthy long beautiful life 🙏

[@Maquita9A]

What about granuloma around stitch? I took it away with surgery and appears again in the same place around two stitches.

[@jenofire8724]

You’ll have to get them removed, and have your surgeon use a non suture procedure, like glue. You’ll have to be reeeeaaally careful with incision. I had the same issue.

[@OurDreamsInMotion]

When I see terrible capsular contractions like this it seems like it means that the person has a strong immune system, like it’s really good at attacking foreign threats... am I right?
