The results of previous studies show that breast augmentation surgery is effective in improving women's satisfaction and the quality of life. The type of surgical survey tool can be effective in validating the results. The BREAST-Q is a strong and valid questionnaire that has not been performed nationwide as a breast augmentation's survey tool on the quality of life indicators. Therefore, in this study, the effect of breast augmentation surgery on quality of life, satisfaction, and marital life was assessed in married women using BREAST-Q as a validation tool.
