How to Spot a Boob Job
More and more female celebrities find themselves assaulted by
speculation about the authenticity of their (b r e a s t s). The
singer Byul provoked doubters who said her remarkable bust cannot
possibly be God-given, and Lee Ji-hye went to the length of giving
an interview dressed in nothing but a swimsuit in a bid to "prove"
her (b r e a s t s) are all real. As a measure of the interest in
(b r e a s t) enlargement, prurient or otherwise, phrases to do
with (b r e a s t) surgery are among of the most-searched words at
major portals. But how to know for sure if a woman's (b r e a s t
s) are the real thing?
(B r e a s t) enlargements now focus mostly on the trend toward a
voluminous body silhouette, and women prefer a deeper cleavage.
Plastic surgery clinic BARAM in Gangnam, Seoul says the size of (b
r e a s t) implants has doubled from 135 cc on average in 1994 to
265 cc in 2003. With implants of 200-250 cc, (b r e a s t s) become
so full that an average male adult's hands cannot cup them fully.
But the procedure has come a long way since the improbable balloons
of yesteryear, and surgeons now attempt to make them look as
natural as possible. "If your new (b r e a s t s) look too elastic,
the augmentation wasn't successful," says clinic chief Sim
Hyung-bo. "One way to tell augmented (b r e a s t s) with the naked
eye is that it is safe to say that skinny women with very large (b
r e a s t s) probably had them enlarged. It is true that Koreans'
physique has changed remarkably over the years, but their (b r e a
s t s) are still smaller than those of Westerners." Augmented (b r
e a s t s) are also less flexible and will bounce less during
exercise such as walking or running.
Alas, women with firm, perfectly symmetrical (b r e a s t s) will
find it hard to convince the cynics -- especially when lying down,
because the enhanced bust will stay in shape and refuse to flatten
like the genuine article. If women were overly ambitious in their
augmentation, they may be afraid of letting their boyfriends touch
their (b r e a s t s). No matter how professional their plastic
surgeon is, small (b r e a s t s) do not offer enough tissue to
cover implants, so they can feel the texture of the silicone
sacs.
Another telltale sign are the surgical scars, though today they are
very small. In most cases, incisions were made in the armpits or
around the areolas, but these days they are made inside the navel,
so women who had the procedure do not have to worry about the scar
when they wear a bikini. Even so, the method leaves scars when
incisions are too big or not treated well. X-rays of augmented (b r
e a s t s) make implants and surrounding tissue look hazy, while
ultrasound shows the natural fatty tissue spotted while implants
look inky. The U.S. supermodel Tyra Lynne Banks had her (b r e a s
t s) examined by ultrasound on her "Tyra Banks Show" to prove her
(b r e a s t) were real.
