You’ve been pondering breast augmentation for eons. Should you or shouldn’t you? You’ve been reading about it and looking at “before and after” photos since your high school graduation, and now you’re over thirty. You’ve already had a couple of kids and now your breasts look like they could use even more help than ever. You’re embarrassed to wear a bathing suit; you’ve been secretly stuffing your bra with Kleenex and have been eying the padded versions of lingerie in the Victoria Secret catalog. Should you do it? Here are 5 reasons to go for it:

1) Self confidence: You know how you cringe every time you check out your chest? Well, this is very detrimental to your self esteem. Every time you cringe, your confidence flame tamps down just a wee bit more. Not only is your chest flat, your self image is flattened out, too. When a person feels badly about her appearance, this will spill into other areas of life. With an augmentation procedure, self esteem can soar and new heights in life can be strived for. It’s not just about the external, it’s about the internal, too.

2) Clothes look better: When trying on blouses that sag in the front, bathing suits that are positively embarrassing, low cut formal wear – a person has no idea how much better she will look and feel when trying on and wearing clothes. After augmentation, blouses, bathing suits and low cut formal gowns look sexy rather than “oh no!” Shopping for clothes and looking in the mirror will be more fun than ever.

3) Chance of advancement in career: Just because a woman has cleavage doesn’t necessarily mean she’ll be instantly promoted, but let’s face it – attractive people, male and female, get better jobs and fatter paychecks. Not only because they are lovely to look at, but because they exude confidence.

4) The man in your life will be grateful: Sure, he tells you he loves you just the way you are. But have you noticed him taking a second look at the shapely women in the neighborhood? Well, it’s only natural. Men are hard wired to go for curvy bodies – it’s in their DNA as a means of survival. Cavemen sought out fertile young women to carry on the caveman family name. Fertile and young women are often curvy and so it is. He may love the way you are now but I guarantee he won’t be complaining when he sees your voluptuous curves.

5) You only live once: If there’s anything in the world that you’ve been dying for since high school, be it a breast augmentation or a trip to Paris, you’ve got to find a way to achieve it. If you think it’s too expensive or frivolous, think again. Where there’s a will there’s a way. Start a savings account earmarked for the operation; sell your second car; take in a renter in that extra guestroom no one is using. Life’s too short to deny yourself something that can bring so much light into your life.
