I'm an intelligent 29yr old, never had kids and in 1 month, I'll be celebrating the 1 year anniversary of my breast implants. So far, everything is going well- no hardenning or slipping. I do however have to live with 2 very visible keloid scars (being of Asian descent) under each breast and loss of some sensation oh and the disappointment of some family and friends. They're no biggie though as the scarring and sensation loss I already knew about and as for the backlash from people- I was doing this for me and not for them so even though I heeded their words of concern, this was still my decision and so I made it.
The decision to undergo surgery was a very personal one to me. After years of research-learning the pros and terrifying cons, finding the right doctor whom I believe would deliver the results I wanted and despite the protests of friends and family, I went ahead with it. I have no regrets and I stick by my decision. I am very happy.
If you are by no means okay with the possibility or able to cope should the worse happen- infections, hardening etc...then I believe that you shouldn't go ahead with it. This was the defining question I asked myself and since my answer was "yes, I can deal with it" this further lead me believe that I was making (or should I say, I made) the right decision.
The first doctor I consulted wanted 360-380cc implants. The 2nd doctor said that they would be too huge for my slim 5'5 frame. He suggested 280cc. I decided on 300cc and they turned out perfect-lots of cleavage but not too cumbersome for sports (I love going to the gym, hiking, running and rock climbing).
Another thing you should consider which would help in your decision making is," why do you want to go through the surgery?"
Even though my boyfriend loved my pre-op body and I had a lot of confidence, having ample breasts was something I always desired since hitting puberty. It (growing boobs) never happend for me so after (doing research and) informing myself and waiting for the right age where I was mature enough, I made the huge decision.
I want to emphasise again- do your research, get to the heart of why you want them (larger breasts), get clear that it's what you want and NOT for someone else then decide whether it's the right decision for you.
