Well, since I have been with my husband. I have gone from a C cup to a P cup (American sizes) naturally and the resulting chronic back pain says: no one needs implants. Just a partner who makes you feel good about the body that you have. (And by god is it hard to get health insurance to cover breast reduction surgery)
I’ve had an augmentation and super duper happy even many years later. Gender affirming care rocks
I'm sorry for your gain, as a C myself I can't empathize but I can sympathize. Even swelling a few cup sizes during lactation was uncomfortable. What situation took you to P, if you're willing to share?
(And it's a crime about the insurance, that's definitely a health issue.)
Not trying to be a smartarse here but what on Earth is a P-cup!? The largest I've ever heard of is an I-cup; in my imagination a P-cup engulfs the planet. How do you live???
With chronic back pain and fatigue.
Honestly cup sizes after F lose all meaning because no two manufacturers will be the same size and after N, everything is custom and cost hundreds of dollars (or more).
It is like walking around with a middle school student strapped to your chest. And it just sucks.
Naturally
I was about to say... Couldn't a single pin prick solve your breathing reduction issue?
breathing reduction issue
Lol. Often when I'm snuggling my partner I don't just rest my arm on her chest, I pull downward so the boobage is off the neck and she always thanks me 😅
It's crazy they won't cover that. My girlfriend flew herself and a friend to Turkey a few years ago and paid for hotel stays and it still ended up being cheaper to have her reduction done there than it would have been for her to do it state-side
Some do, but there will always be a surgeon somewhere who will take the money.
The only way to stop this is by regulation.
While I am a body-positive feminist and think everybody should love the body that they have, I think regulating giant boobs would be a mistake. First of all, it would turn women's bodies into a legislative battleground, which I don't think women need more of in our overly-politicized environment. Secondly, there are many horny men who love to masturbate to giant tits, and banning them would drive them into the arms of the right--now is clearly not the time for that. Third, huge knockers create much-needed jobs in the medical industry. Do we really want to take away jobs from doctors and nurses? Fourth, with the declining economy, sex work--whether OnlyFans or direct services--are becoming necessary outlets for many women, are we going to deny them a definite boost to their income? They could also likely apply for handicap plates with these gargantuan breasts, which would save them time getting to their johns from the parking lot. Finally, and most importantly, banning enormous jalopies would just make the left seem more radical, more extreme, and just downright unreasonable, which would hurt our agenda in other ways, such as Medicare for All, guaranteed childcare, and subsidizing housing (all of which I also oppose).

FWIW, we did make polypropelene ("silly-string") implants illegal. They were pulled off the market by the FDA. So there's kind of an upper-limit established.
(NSFW link) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polypropylene_breast_implant
Polypropylene implants absorb water very slowly, about <0.01% in 24 hours.[2] The polypropylene, which is yarn-like, causes irritation to the implant pocket which causes the production of serum which fills the implant pocket on a continual basis.[citation needed] This causes continuous expansion of the breast after surgery. Growth can only be alleviated by removal of serum by syringe. Problems can also arise if the breasts enlarge at different rates. This can be corrected by removal of serum or introduction of sterile saline. Continual breast growth will eventually result in "extreme, almost cartoonish breast sizes."[3]
we're a very strange animal.
Everybody has ethics and professional standards until the checkbook comes out.
sadly true
a guy I know shared an anecdote recently of a customer yelling at them because military vehicles were out of commission due to them not having the part in stock. there is no other supplier for this part, and they are generally made to order with a lead time of months.
in that case, the company makes parts used in all sorts of machines all over the world, and the engineers aren't the ones selling the parts to militaries killing children. the specific part, however, was for a military vehicle. and somewhere in that chain, an engineer said yeah this is fine. multiple of them. along with many other people who thought it was fine to make and sell this product. and even though the guy I know held the personal opinion that it's a good thing those vehicles were out of commission and unable to help kill children, he didn't shut down the sale.
Haha this is me at work while I'm generating marketing slop to sell shit to people who don't want it
The image doesn't correspond to the text.
Using the advanced method of guesstimating, let's assume the radius of each of the silicone spheres to be at least 20 cm. Applying V=(4/3) x pi r^3 we get a volume of 33510 cc.
You'd need a radius of 10 cm to get down to 4000 cc. This corresponds to 20 cm diameter, or rather, the length of a human hand
These might weigh 8kg each, they are not empty like a balloon, they are full of the silicone gel. Any doctor should refuse to put these on anyone.
Won't they weigh 8-10kg in total? 4000 cubic centimeter x 2 x density( between 0,95-1,2g/cm3 )
Still too much.
Doctors like money to much to refuse anything.
That’s like carrying a big toddler around everywhere. Then sleeping with one on your chest. More reasonably they’re going to end up on your side(s), but turning over in the night could legitimately twinge your back.
I don't know much about implants or what they use exactly, but assuming they're liquid silicon with a density of 2.57g/cm^3^, then 4000cc would weigh 10,280g (22.67lbs). If those are EACH, then you're looking at nearly 50 pounds strapped to your chest with minimal support. Your poor back.
this is silicon metal surgical siliconE has density almost equal to water
Equivalent to getting two of these attached to your chest:
Twenty whole Swedens?! Goddamn!
Now that would make for a real bolt-on tits
They should use helium.
4000cc is 4 liters, and those seem way bigger than 4 liters or that person is very small.
These look more like 20l boobs to me! Certified jugs!
Volume of a sphere is 4/3 π r^3 .
Solving for r where the volume is 4000 cm^3 makes for a 9.8 cm radius, or a 19.6 cm (7.7 inch) diameter. Comparable to a child size 3 soccer ball.
Obviously taking a soft sphere and letting it flatten on a surface against its own weight makes for a non-spherical shape, but this picture looks way bigger than a kid's soccer ball.
So can someone just, you know, can they just buy those?
No, at least not in the U.S. - you need to be a licensed physician.
Could you imagine being able to buy medical grade breast implants? The amount of people who would die in back alley breast augmentations would be insane.
But think about how much fun I'd have next Tuesday
Pretty sure these belong to the famous (infamous?) Reddit user "PumpkinSpicedBimb0"
I wanna slap em
Most companies will refrain from producing something, but as long as there is 1 surgeon who does not feel the moral obligation to say no, they will make implants this big. Simple supply and demand. Perhaps aside from the surgeons, we should also question the implant companies if what they're doing is morally right.
Ooooooooo woobley booblies
Man I know of one minor celeb who want for very large breast implants (and has talked openly about her views on it very cogently) and so naively I thought "feh, people go for big titties, so what" but I checked and her implants - which look massive - are "only" 1250cc, so yeah these are mental.
I think there must be a proportion of people looking at this kind of extreme modification who have a mental illness and need help. I don't know what that proportion is, and the way that person talks about her decision convinces me completely that for her it's a niche interest like getting loads of tattoos, but... 4000cc...
