Not only do you have to create a huge unsightly incision, which, like any injury can become infected and fester, or have the stitching loosen. Also, the implants can move around and all that. I'd say if you naturally have big boobs, then yay for you but if your naturally flat chested, rock those high necked tops that make a busty girl look frumpy!
Just live your life as you are. There is no perfect way to be, and therefore there is nothing that's conclusively wrong either. As long as you are healthy and happy, then you are the best person you can be. No-one needs a breast implant or a lip plump to be beautiful, you already are.
The only time a breast implant is good is for anyone is after a mastectomy, as I know from my Granny, having an uneven chest can be really depressing. That's the only time it's good. Otherwise love yourself for who you are.

After two days of discussion the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) affirmed the safety of silicone breast implants. That is, if you're not worried about ruptures, hardening, scarring, pain, infection, or asymmetry. Hmmm...that doesn't sound so safe to us.
“Women should feel assured that the FDA continues to believe that currently marketed silicone breast implants are safe,” said Dr. William Maisel, chief scientist for the FDA’s Center for Devices.
“We felt that way before the meeting, and we continue to feel that way after the presentations and discussions over the past two days,” Dr. Maisel said.
But not all of the patients and women's groups who testified agreed with Maisel's conclusion.
Diana Zuckerman, president of the National Research Center for Women and Families, a research and education group, believes that the two companies that manufacture silicone breast implants, Johnson & Johnson and Allergan, have done a poor job of studying patients who received the implants.
“And without proper data, we still don’t know how safe or effective they are and whether there are certain patients at risk for extremely negative outcomes,” Zuckerman told the expert panel.
Dr. Maisel agreed that the two companies need to do more follow-up with silicone breast implant patients, but that did not stop the FDA from affirming their safety.
What do you think about the FDA's ruling? Do you believe that silicone breast implants safe?

A man testified about this study at the FDA but I truly cannot believe that this man is not biased, even though he works for the FDA. For way too many years men have told women what is safe and not for women and as a 63 year old woman I have seen men proved wrong about women's bodies and what we can put into our bodies.
How come they don't fill them with MILK, SOUR CREAM, or SILLY PUTTY ???
no way would i try implants....

I think its all funny because the FDAs this its ok to soak our beef in Ammonia too.
If somebody wants fake boobs--let them have em... although I think that people who get implants prove that they are a "fake" superficial type of people. (unless it was reconstructive after surgery etc). ....but whatever makes them happy.
