Everything has its limits, and breast augmentation is no exception. Understand that breast size does not correlate with a woman's sex appeal. Blindly pursuing breast enlargement can cause significant harm to the body.
What happens with excessive breast augmentation?
Consequence 1: Too much becomes a burden
Implants disproportionate to your body will cause discomfort, unnatural gait, and slouching. Even simple actions like picking up dropped papers become daunting, fearing the implants might shift.
Consequence 2: Sagging Breasts
While breast implants are increasingly accepted, excessively large implants carry significant risks. They may cause capsular contracture—a thickening and tightening of the scar tissue around the implant—leading to hardening and deformation within about six months. Severe cases have even resulted in incision rupture.This incision rupture phenomenon occurs more frequently with inframammary fold incisions, likely due to the excessive weight of the implants.
Furthermore, oversized implants are prone to sagging. Unlike muscle tissue, implants cannot be adequately supported beyond a certain size. While appropriately sized implants can be lifted within the capacity of the chest muscles, exceeding this threshold allows gravity to overcome muscular support.
