Let me start by pointing out that I am neither marriage-counsellor nor psychiatrist. But I can share what I have learned over the past 2-plus decades of doing breast augmentations for thousands of women, plus some insights that come from being a male myself.
First, it is important to repeat that breast augmentation is something that a woman does for herself alone, and not for anyone else. It is rare, and not appropriate, for a woman to want to have implants just because her partner wants her to (and reputable plastic surgeons would decline to operate under that circumstance). If you don't really, really want implants, do not do it!
Second, it must be mentioned that there apparently is a small number of men who are opposed to breast augmentation on personal grounds: religious, philosophical, emotional, social etc. Such men will not react well to the presence of implants no matter what you do or say.
Third, some men would like the idea, except for their insecure worries about the increased attention that the woman may attract. They fear that they may have a more difficult task in keeping other men away. A great deal of reassurance may be needed here.
Fourth, male insecurity also comes into play in another way, with fears raised by the fact that the woman wants implants in the first place. The male mind works in ways that are at least a little foreign or mysterious to most women. Knowing that the woman in his life wants implants can sometimes throw a man off-balance. For more on these male psyche issues, you may want to check Why is the man in my life acting strange about my getting implants? for a detailed discussion.
Fifth, most of us men are intensely visual creatures, and some men are very put-off by scars on the breasts. They do not like the visual image of the perfect breast marred by scars, even thin faint scars. This is one of the reasons that many women are choosing to have the implants inserted through small incisions in inconspicuous locations, such as underarm or navel.
Sixth, women who have desired breast augmentation and then gotten it often display a great new-found confidence. There are some men for whom that can be a threatening characteristic in a woman, but for most, the confidence is a plus.
Seventh, even though most men cannot detect by touch that there are implants, some men can, and it bothers some men to be reminded of that during intimate moments. This is an area well worth exploring with a partner prior to getting implants.
Having said all the above, it is worth pointing out that for most couples, breast augmentation is a very positive step. Many people might suppose that the reason is simply that the man finds the woman's new shape physically attractive. That enters into it of course, but is not the main factor. What is the main factor? Confidence! After the operation, most women and their partners discover why they say that confidence in a woman is an extremely attractive quality!
