Breasts

Breasts are an inherent part of the female identity. Large or small, rounded or pointy, they come in all sizes, shapes and profiles imaginable. The human mammary gland is a source of nourishment for infants, a sexual organ providing pleasure to adults and a cultural icon. Few other body parts have occupied such a lasting and attention grabbing place in our history as the human female bosom. From early civilization to the modern world, the scientific, artistic, cultural and societal importance of the breast can not be denied.

Useful Mammary Glands

Besides being a joy to behold and a symbol of womanhood and fertility, the bosom is designed to serve several distinct purposes:

* Breastfeeding new born and developing children
* Facilitate bonding between mother and child
* Sexual pleasure organ for women
* Sexual aphrodisiac for heterosexual men and lesbian women
* Symbol of growth and maturation in girls
* Evolutionary marker to locate fertile females

Cosmetic Surgery of the Bosom

A major role of the female bosom is that of an object of admiration and beauty. Bust size is a major consideration in fashion and is always considered when discussing general female body symmetry and overall attractiveness. A person�s preference might gravitate towards smaller or larger sizes, or a particular shape, but will almost always consider the bust an important defining characteristic of the female form. It is for this reason that the cosmetic surgery industry has focused on the female bosom as a primary specialty. Procedures such as reduction, lift and augmentation have elevated the bosom to one of the most popular anatomical regions to undergo cosmetic surgery.

The Bottom Line on Breasts

Breasts are yet another measure of a woman�s beauty. Far more important than the physical appearance of her bosom is a woman�s emotional connection to her breasts. Women who are unhappy with their natural attributes often present a less desirable body image and a general lack of confidence and assertiveness. These are the most important criteria which can be changed and improved using cosmetic surgery. Improving internal emotional feelings will certainly have a positive effect on the external bodily appearance. Although the anatomical changes enacted by plastic surgery are considerable, they pale in comparison to the drastic psychological effects of a successful aesthetic operation. If you are considering cosmetic surgery to improve or alter your bust line, talk to qualified plastic surgeon about which procedure will meet or beat your expectations.
