Breast augmentation is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures. Many women are unhappy with their breast size and feel it negatively affects their self-image. Other women want not only to increase their breast size but to also address issues of asymmetry or lost volume after pregnancy or significant weight loss.
Primary breast augmentation is very much a matter of personal preference. Some women are looking for a dramatic change while others are looking for a more modest change or subtle enhancements. A popular trend currently is women opting for small to moderate breast augmentations that are still practical for those with active lifestyles. These are sometimes referred to as “yoga boobs” or “ballerina boobs”. These women want breast enhancements that allow them to enjoy active pursuits without feeling weighed down by heavy breasts.
Benefits of “Yoga” Breasts
Smaller breast augmentations appeal to many women who lead active or athletic lifestyles. They may work out regularly or enjoy running or jogging. They may participate in active sports such as tennis, pickleball, or swimming for fitness. Many of these women have a slender, more athletic build. They are looking for proportional and natural-looking breast enhancements that are perky yet practical for the way they live. Many wonder if larger implants could hamper their ability to engage in certain activities, or that the added weight and size could contribute to back and shoulder pain.
