Boob jobs are a very competitive business in Thailand with back street clinics competing on price and materials.  I remember a story about a ladyboy in Pattaya whose new boobs got infected and had to be removed including the nipples. Inside the surgeon found not silicone sacs but knotted condoms filled with saline solution.  

 

Silicone carries risks too and was banned for breast augmentation in the US for 14 years but later re-allowed under commercial lobbying pressure. Leaking silicone can cause serious problems, requiring the removal not only of the ruptured sacs but of previously healthy breast tissue permeated by dangerous liquid silicone. The result is a flat as a pancake look and possibly no nipples.  

 

Do due diligence on the procedure and its risks before making a decision.  If the breasts look fine already and it is not a case of reconstruction after breast cancer surgery, I would say leave well alone.

So, my Thai girlfriend of 7 years suddenly decided she wants to get a boob job. Not sure what triggered it, but now she’s asking for my approval. Here’s the thing: I think she doesn't need it. She is beautiful as is, just the way she was made, and I’ve expressed that clearly to her. But she insists it’s not for the reasons I might think, she says it’s about how it will make her feel inside. According to her, it’s not about making them very big or being flashy. She wants something that is still very natural-looking, but to help make clothes hang better and to boost her confidence.

 

On the one hand, we all have insecurities. So if this will make her feel better about herself, should I be the one to stand in the way? It’s not an issue of cost, but I do wonder about how the change in appearance might affect her socially. Let’s be honest, people can become judgmental in Thailand, especially since she has a foreign boyfriend. So I'm concerned others could make negative assumptions about her. Will it change the way she’s treated in Thai circles and for the worse?

 

There’s also a potential relationship aspect. She says that it’s only for her, and that it's her body, not for me or anyone else, and I guess I can accept that. But at the same time, I still feel a bit confused. Part of me wonders if her wanting my approval is because she’s hoping that this won’t change how I feel about her. 

 

Also there is the question of whether this will really give her the confidence she’s looking for. Not sure if surgery will make her feel more comfortable in her own skin, or if it is a case of wanting to chase perfection that might lead to further dissatisfaction down the road. 

 

Well, should I support her decision wholeheartedly and let her do whatever makes her happy? Or should I continue expressing my reservations? Have any of you been in a similar situation with your partner? Did the surgery actually deliver the confidence boost that was expected?

 

She's planning for her future.....and it doesn't include you.

I would recommend you would do same with yourself 🤗

If her breasts look like shriveled up pancakes or hang down to her knees, then yes! 

Tell her you want to test drive some models before you decide !

up to you

We had ours done. Look great, feel great. Win-win. Just make sure you get the highest quality at a very reputable place. Surgery is no joke.

We're speaking about breast implants here buttercup, we're not putting a man on the moon.

 

You have your opinion, i have mine.

On that I agree.

 

I'm happy to see that I now have an opinion and I'm no longer "ranting on rubbish".

It’s narcissism… women always say it’s for themselves but they want attention! It can never be enough! Recommend you also go feel a few pairs! Nice to look at, otherwise not much fun! Want to work on your self esteem, go to school… she’s going to love it, bet you won’t! 🙏
