A short conversational excerpt from a YouTube video in which Robert Whitfield MD and another speaker discuss how partners’ preferences and pressures make some women afraid to remove breast implants. The snippet highlights emotional and relational barriers, including a reported anecdote where a husband opposed implant removal because he “loves boobs.”
A lot of women are afraid to get their implants out because of their significant other. That is a fact.
Yes.
In fact, I have a friend that I was texting with, and I told my friend, hey, you keep telling me all these things that your wife is experiencing. Could it be her implants? Maybe Just look into it in a very gentle way. And the guy literally said to me, no way. I love boobs. So let's talk about that sort of, like, dark side of it that people aren't speaking on.
Yeah. If that person left you after this, they weren't worth having in the first place and be done with them. So it is a problem. I have obviously seen people get left for this operation after having it done. I've seen very supportive spouses because of, like, your spouse, Michael, and everything in between. We try to provide as much emotional support. We have a very strong program, and then we refer out folks who need, you know, more help. I'm fortunate that the number of spouses and significant others that we interact with are very supportive having it done because they want to help their, you know, significant other feel better and at any, any cost. It doesn't really matter to them anymore because they've seen somebody suffer through this process.
