Okay, so Kaity Biggar, right? From Zach’s season of The Bachelor. She just dropped a little bombshell on TikTok. And when I say bombshell, I mean she basically said, “Hey, for those of you who didn’t know-know, my girls? Yeah, they’re not real.”

“The Girls Aren’t Real” – And We’re Talking About It

I mean, first off, good for her for just putting it out there. But then she followed that up with the real news: she was on her way to a consultation to maybe, possibly, potentially get those implants removed. An “explant,” as the cool kids and plastic surgeons call it. And she’s not just thinking about it, she’s actually looking into the process and, oh yeah, the cost. Because let’s be real, everything costs an arm and a leg these days, especially when it involves medical procedures that aren’t, like, strictly necessary.

She’s 31 now, but she started researching breast augmentation way back in her “late teens.” That’s a phrase that just hits different, isn’t it? “Late teens.” You’re barely an adult, still figuring out who you are, and you’re already diving into permanent body modifications. And look, I’m not here to judge anyone’s choices. Seriously. It’s your body, your money, your decision. But it does make you think about the pressure young women feel, doesn’t it? Like, what was she seeing, what was she hearing, that made her think, at 18 or 19, “Yup, gotta get bigger boobs”?

The Reality TV Effect, Or Just Life?

And now, a decade or so later, she’s like, “Maybe not.” She said her consultation was “really good [and] really informative.” Which, okay, that’s what you want from a consultation, right? You want to know what you’re getting into, what the risks are, what the recovery looks like, and crucially, what you’ll look like after. Because this isn’t just about taking something out; it’s about what’s left behind, literally and figuratively.

Why the Change of Heart, Kaity?

The thing is, this isn’t exactly a new trend. We’ve seen a bunch of celebrities, and just regular folks, opting for explant surgery in recent years. It’s like the pendulum is swinging back a little bit. For a while there, it felt like everyone was getting them. Now, it’s becoming more common to get them removed. But why now for Kaity? She just got engaged to Zach, they had that super budget-friendly wedding (like, $1,240? Seriously, how?), and she’s living her life post-Bachelor bubble. Is it about comfort? Health concerns? Or just a shift in personal aesthetics as she gets older?

“It’s about getting back to yourself, or maybe, becoming the self you were always meant to be, before all the outside noise.”

I mean, who knows, right? She hasn’t spilled all the beans on her exact reasoning yet, and she doesn’t have to. But it’s interesting to watch. Because for so long, the narrative was always about enhancing, enlarging, perfecting. And now, the conversation is shifting to authenticity, comfort, and sometimes, undoing what was done.

What This Actually Means

Look, I think this is actually pretty significant, especially coming from someone in Bachelor Nation. These shows, they’re basically a factory for a certain type of beauty standard, aren’t they? Perfect hair, perfect makeup, perfect teeth, and yeah, often, perfect-looking chests. And a lot of that “perfection” comes from a little help here and there. So for Kaity to openly talk about getting her implants removed, it’s kind of a big deal. It signals a shift, a willingness to be more real, more vulnerable, and maybe, just maybe, to challenge those unspoken beauty rules that have been around for way too long.

It also reminds us that beauty standards are constantly evolving. What was “in” ten years ago isn’t necessarily “in” now. And what’s truly important, I think, is feeling good in your own skin. Whether that means getting implants, keeping them, or taking them out. If Kaity’s journey inspires even one person to think about what makes them feel good, regardless of trends or what they think they should look like, then I’m all for it. And honestly, it probably saves her a bunch of money on expensive bras, too. Just saying.
