Breast Surgery Leads To More-Satisfying Sex Life, Poll Shows

October 13th, 2014

Women who have their breasts surgically enhanced are noticing a wonderful side effect: better sex!

Among breast implant and breast lift patients responding to a survey, a whopping 70 percent said their overall sex life satisfaction improved after the procedure, with 28 percent reporting that, based on a 1-to-10 scale, their sex life scores shot up by four points or more. The poll’s participants claimed a 34 percent increase in overall sex life satisfaction on average, and also claimed to have more sex post-procedure.

The poll by RealSelf.com, an online community focused on cosmetic surgery, found that 61 percent of women claimed they had sex more frequently after their breast enhancement surgery. The average pre-procedure sex life satisfaction score was 6.07, and the average post-procedure sex life scored jumped to 8.13.

The poll echoes the results of an earlier study by a University of Florida nurse researcher, who reported that women who undergo breast enlargement usually see a significant boost in self-esteem and positive feelings about their sexuality.

Cynthia Figueroa-Haas surveyed 84 women, aged 21 to 57 years old, assessing their perceptions before and two to three months after they had cosmetic breast augmentation.
Using the 30-point Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the participants’ average score increased from 20.7 to 24.9. And on the Female Sexual Function Index — which assesses sexual arousal, satisfaction, experience and attitudes — the average patient’s score increased from 27.2 to 31.4 on the 36-point index. After the procedure, ratings of sexual desire increased 78.6 percent, arousal scores jumped 81 percent and satisfaction ratings improved 57 percent.
