Seventy-five women who had undergone augmentation mammaplasty responded to a questionnaire that obtained their perceptions of five areas of their personal and relationship functioning: (1) body and self-image, (2) attractiveness, (3) sensual sensitivity of breasts, (4) sexual life, and (5) relationship with partner. The women's perceptions of these areas before and after surgery were obtained retrospectively (between 3 months and 3 years after surgery). The 54 women in consistent relationships reported positive effects of the surgery on their relationship, although not to the extent that they had anticipated. However, regardless of this finding, these women perceived surgery to have had significant positive effects on their attractiveness, as well as on their body and self-image. Postoperatively, the partners of these women were viewed as having a significantly greater interest in sexual activity, as perceiving the women to be significantly more attractive, and as believing that the sexual relationship was significantly enhanced. The 21 women who were not in a consistent relationship also reported positive postoperative changes, although these were not statistically significant. Neither the women's age, length of time since surgery, nor the duration of the woman's relationship had any effect on the positive changes reported. The quantitative and qualitative data underscored the highly positive benefits of breast augmentation for the respondents.
75名接受隆胸手术的女性对一份问卷做出了回应，该问卷获取了她们对个人及人际关系功能五个方面的看法：(1)身体与自我形象，(2)吸引力，(3)乳房的性感敏感度，(4)性生活，以及(5)与伴侣的关系。这些女性手术前后对这些方面的看法是通过回顾性调查获得的(术后3个月至3年之间)。54名处于稳定恋爱关系中的女性报告称，手术对她们的恋爱关系有积极影响，尽管程度没有她们预期的那么大。然而，尽管有这一发现，这些女性认为手术对她们的吸引力以及身体和自我形象有显著的积极影响。术后，这些女性的伴侣被认为对性行为有更大的兴趣，认为这些女性更有吸引力，并且认为性关系有显著改善。21名没有处于稳定恋爱关系中的女性也报告了术后的积极变化，尽管这些变化在统计学上并不显著。女性的年龄、手术时间长短以及恋爱关系持续时间对所报告的积极变化均无影响。定量和定性数据都强调了隆胸手术给受访者带来的高度积极的益处。
