I had a breast augmentation surgery that I had done around age 22, so I wouldn't swear that in five years I won't also have a procedure to soften my expression lines. Maybe one day I'll put on weight and not manage to lose it, and then I'll have to turn to plastic surgery. I don't say a firm ‘no’ to cosmetic procedures.
What did Diana Dumitrescu say about her breast augmentation?
Romanian actress Diana Dumitrescu, known for her roles in Romanian telenovelas, gave an interview to voux.ro, reported by Libertatea, in which she said: “I had a breast augmentation surgery that I had done around age 22, so I wouldn't swear that in five years I won't also have a procedure to soften my expression lines. Maybe one day I'll put on weight and not manage to lose it, and then I'll have to turn to plastic surgery. I don't say a firm ‘no’ to cosmetic procedures.”

WhatsAppThat is the whole of what we rely on here. Dumitrescu gave her age at the time of the surgery rather than a calendar year, so this article does not convert that into a specific year. Where the text below explains breast augmentation today, it describes the procedure in general, not her treatment.
Why her honesty about the future mattered
Most celebrities who admit to one past procedure stop there. Dumitrescu went further, saying openly that she might have more work done later in life if her body changed, rather than presenting her appearance as permanently natural. That kind of forward-looking honesty is unusual, and it treats cosmetic surgery as an ordinary option rather than a one-time secret.

People consider breast augmentation at a young age for reasons such as naturally small breast volume or wanting a different shape, which is consistent with what Dumitrescu described.

Recovery and results
Dumitrescu spoke about her own procedure years after it took place, as part of a wider reflection on beauty and ageing rather than a fresh announcement. For patients in general, the timeline below shows what usually happens.
How breast augmentation works today
Breast augmentation places an implant behind or in front of the chest muscle to increase breast size and change its shape, under general anaesthesia. Surgery itself takes about 1.5–3 hours, with one day in hospital afterwards.
Filling
- Silicone implants
- Cohesive silicone gel
- Saline implants
- Sterile saline solution
Feel
- Silicone implants
- Closest to natural tissue
- Saline implants
- Slightly firmer
Shape options
- Silicone implants
- Round or anatomical
- Saline implants
- Mostly round
Typical lifespan
- Silicone implants
- About 10–15 years
- Saline implants
- About 10–15 years
Size and profile are chosen together with the surgeon based on the patient's own anatomy, not from a celebrity's story. Implants typically need replacing after about 10–15 years, regardless of brand or type.
Who is a good candidate
People consider breast augmentation for reasons such as:
- naturally small breast volume;
- asymmetry between the breasts;
- volume lost after pregnancy or breastfeeding;
- wanting a different shape or profile.
Patients who have recently given birth or breastfed are advised to wait at least 6–12 months first. Before surgery, blood tests, a coagulation panel, infection screening, an ECG, a chest X-ray and a breast ultrasound are required, and aspirin-type medication, steroids and hormonal drugs (including oral contraceptives) usually need to be paused in advance, under medical supervision.
How breast augmentation recovery usually goes
- Day of surgeryGeneral anaesthesia, surgery lasts 1.5–3 hours; one day in hospital.
- Days 1–3Moderate discomfort, managed with pain medication; a compression garment is worn.
- Days 5–7Discomfort is much lighter; non-physical work can usually resume after 7–14 days.
- Weeks 2–3Most discomfort is gone; walking is comfortable.
- Weeks 4–6Swimming and light fitness are usually allowed; compression garment finishes.
- Months 3–12Strength training resumes around month 3; scars fade and sensitivity returns over 6–12 months.
