Then I thought, we'll see how it is after the third child, and then I felt: the only thing I want is to get back what I had before. So I have put in small implants.
What did Kenza Zouiten Subosic say about her breast surgery?
She spoke about it in her podcast “Mer än bara en morsa”. As Expressen reported on 11 February 2025, she had first thought about the operation after her second child: “Then I thought, we'll see how it is after the third child, and then I felt: the only thing I want is to get back what I had before. So I have put in small implants.”

WhatsAppShe explained why she chose to be open: “I think you should admit things like this and be open and honest, yes, I have done it, so as not to create a lot of skewed ideals.” At the same time she said she did not want to inspire others to have surgery.
Two days later Metro Mode quoted her Instagram reply to the criticism that followed: “But I really believe it is better to be honest, because it can be very dangerous to compare yourself with people on social media who have done one thing or another.” She added that she would not go into details, because “it is a procedure that involves risks.”
That is all we rely on here. Beyond “small implants”, she deliberately gave no medical details, so this article does not guess at them. Where the text below explains methods and recovery, it describes breast augmentation in general, not her treatment.
Why her honesty matters
Zouiten Subosic made two points that are worth taking seriously. The first is that hiding a procedure can create unrealistic ideals, especially for people who compare themselves with what they see on social media. The second is that surgery is a personal decision with real risks, not something to copy. Both points fit how a responsible consultation should work.

Her reason is also a common one: many women consider an augmentation after pregnancies and breastfeeding, when breast volume has changed. Nothing in this article judges how anyone looks; the point is the decision and how carefully it is made.
Breast augmentation abroad: choose a city and clinic
Prices, the clinic and a free online consultation for each city:
How breast augmentation is done today
Breast augmentation places an implant behind the breast tissue or the chest muscle to restore or add volume. It is done under general anaesthesia, usually takes 1.5–3 hours, and the patient normally spends one day in hospital. The implant is chosen together with the surgeon:
Filling
- Options
- Silicone or saline
- What it affects
- How the implant feels and behaves
Shape
- Options
- Round or anatomical
- What it affects
- Fullness of the upper part of the breast
Surface
- Options
- Smooth or textured
- What it affects
- How the implant sits in the tissue
Size and profile
- Options
- Chosen with the surgeon
- What it affects
- Volume and projection in proportion to the body
Implants usually last about 10–15 years before they need replacing, so a further operation later in life should be expected. That is worth discussing openly at the first consultation.
Who is a candidate and how to prepare
A good candidate is an adult in stable health with realistic expectations. After childbirth, surgeons recommend waiting at least 6–12 months after the birth and after breastfeeding has ended, so that the breasts have settled. Before surgery the clinic asks for blood tests, a coagulation panel, infection tests, an ECG, a chest X-ray and a breast ultrasound.
Aspirin-type drugs, steroids and hormonal drugs are stopped in agreement with the doctor; oral contraceptives are usually paused at least a month before.
As Zouiten Subosic said, it is a procedure with risks. The surgeon explains them in advance, including hematoma, seroma, infection, changes in nipple sensitivity, capsular contracture, asymmetry, wound separation and tissue necrosis.
What recovery looks like
Moderate discomfort is normal for the first one to three days and eases noticeably by days five to seven. Non-physical work is usually possible after 7–14 days, walks after one to two weeks, fitness and swimming after four to six weeks, and strength training after three months. A compression garment is worn for four to six weeks.
Swelling settles in about a month, full recovery takes three to six months, scars fade over 6–12 months, and sensitivity usually returns within 3–12 months.
How recovery after breast augmentation usually goes
- Day of surgeryGeneral anaesthesia, 1.5–3 hours in theatre, then one day in hospital.
- Days 1–3Moderate discomfort, controlled with prescribed painkillers; compression garment on.
- Days 5–14Discomfort eases; non-physical work is usually possible after 7–14 days.
- Weeks 4–6Swelling has largely settled; fitness and swimming return; the compression garment comes off.
- Month 3Strength training is allowed again.
- Months 3–12Full recovery at 3–6 months; scars fade and sensitivity usually returns within a year.
