> 3) I think you heavily underestimate the number of girls who get breast implants. For a while, it seemed like every 16-year-old girl was getting them.

Citation definitely needed for this. Cosmetic surgery in the US is not covered by insurance and requires parental consent for patients under 18. While I do see more young women (and men) with "body modifications" like tattoos under 18, I strongly doubt we have a significant number of parents who are taking their teenage daughters in to get breast implants before they've even finished high school.
