Breast augmentation remains one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries among women year after year. Although the primary motivation for getting breast implants — namely, a curvier figure — may seem self-explanatory, here are some other reasons why women decide on breast augmentation as well.

While nearly every woman has some degree of asymmetry between her breasts, the difference isn’t enough to be noticeable in most. When the size difference between breasts is dramatic, breast implants can improve symmetry even if you’re not interested in a significant size change. An implant can be placed in the smaller side only if you’re happy with the size of your breast, or implants of different sizes can be used to increase the size of both breasts while helping to create symmetry.
