The answer

If the wife's breast size is unusually small, there is no harm in performing surgery to enlarge it, because this falls under the category of removing a defect and harm, not seeking beauty. It should be noted that the operation should be performed by a female doctor if available, and it is better to achieve the desired outcome through medications and drugs if possible.
