It's well known that Dolly Parton's most popular body part is her breast. Many people wonder: "Did Dolly Parton have implants?" Well, to take things from the start, Dolly Parton when she became a media superstar in the late 1970s, she was significantly overweight, although her small frame and costuming made her seem average in size everywhere except the boobs, which were obviously very large and quickly became the target of late-night talk show host jokes.
At the time, whenever asked if her boobs were real, Dolly stated they were real. In the mid-1980s, she lost a considerable amount of weight. In interviews afterward, Dolly avoided answering whether she got implants, referring to any procedure as only a "lift."
In 2002, however, Dolly admitted for the first time in separate interviews with "The Irish Independent" and "The Daily Mirror" that after the weight loss in the 1980s, she lost a great deal of breast size and subsequently obtained implants to bring them back to a similar size as she had prior to the weight loss.
It has to be noted that since then, Dolly has made ample jokes in media interviews about their not being natural. She even once joked by claiming: "Yep they are mine! Bought and paid for!"
But Dolly expressed her desire to get them reduced because they have been giving her excruciating back pain for over thirty years now. Besides, Dolly is ony 5 foot 1.
In addition, in the one interview in the "Irish Independent", Dolly revealed how much money her implants cost her. Wanna know how?? Dolly had gotten implants at a cost of about $3,000 (which would date them to around the mid-to-late-1980s). Then in the "London Mirror", Dolly explained that she decided to get implants after her dramatic weight loss around 1986."

Dolly has a great sense of humor indeed. So, during the discussions about the "Weapons of Mass Destruction", Dolly has referred to her famous boobs as "Weapons of Mass Distraction" and named them "Shock and Awe"!
It has to be mentioned that Dolly Parton used her royalties from the years after "Jolene" (in 1974) to buy her famous implants.
One report, in the mid 1980's, of Dolly having her first set of "full silicone" implants taken out to be replaced with a new set of "silicone-saline" implants could support the claim that her current implants are actually her second set of implants.
In the mid 1980's, the implants used in the years before that, the so-called "full silicone" implants, were reported to possibly cause health hazards. The alternative, called "saline" implants, were and are considered less hazardous.
It has to be mentioned that Dolly Parton told Oprah Winfrey that plastic surgery is the only way to keep her famous look and if something was sagging or dragging, she was going to have it nipped and tucked.
