===Psychology=== The studies ''Body Image Concerns of Breast Augmentation Patients'' (2003) and ''Body Dysmorphic Disorder and Cosmetic Surgery'' (2006) reported that the woman who underwent breast augmentation surgery also had undergone [[psychotherapy]], had low [[self-esteem]], presented frequent occurrences of [[Depression (mood)|psychological depression]], had attempted [[suicide]], and had [[body dysmorphia]]{{snd}}a type of mental illness wherein she perceives non-existent physical defects. Post-operative patient surveys about the mental health and the quality of life of the women, reported improved physical health, physical appearance, social life, self-confidence, self-esteem, and satisfaction [[sexual attraction|sexual functioning]]. Furthermore, most of the women reported long-term satisfaction with their breast implants; some despite having had medical complications that required surgical revision, either corrective or aesthetic. Likewise, in Denmark, 8.0 percent of breast augmentation patients had a pre-operative history of psychiatric hospitalization.<ref name="Brinton2000">{{cite journal |vauthors=Brinton L, Brown S, Colton T, Burich M, Lubin J |title = Characteristics of a Population of Women with Breast Implants Compared with Women Seeking other Types of Plastic Surgery|journal=Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery|volume = 105|issue=3|pages=919–927|year=2000|pmid=10724251|doi=10.1097/00006534-200003000-00014|s2cid = 32599107|url = https://zenodo.org/record/1234820}}</ref><ref name="Jacobsen PH 2004">{{Cite journal | last1 = Jacobsen | first1 = P.
