How old is too old for breast implants?

By Altizer10 on 21 Mar 2013

I am 48 yrs old considering breast implants... worried tho about not only the initial risks of surgery but of having to have additional surgery down the road when I would be even older and maybe not as healthy..

I'm 57 and just had my BA 6 weeks ago! Only regret is not doing it sooner!

You are not old at all. :P If you want you can go for it. But better to visit a doctor.

I am 47 and am 5 weeks post op and my recovery is much easier than I anticipated. My only regret is that I didn't do it long ago but so glad I did now! I think the key is if you are healthy and find an experienced quality surgeon. Don't shop around for the best deal when it comes to your body. Shop around for an experienced skilled surgeon.
