I do high intensity sports, will a breast augmentation affect me from being able to be rough on my body athletically? will I be able to do all forms of exercise (once fully healed)? or will there be more of a risk of the silicone tearing or moving?
Answer: I am a competitive athlete, will a breast augmentation affect my body from intense exercise (once fully healed)? The majority of patients who undergo the breast augmentation procedure will be able to return to full activity without restriction, over the long-term.

Answer: Breast implants for a competitive athlete Thank you for your question. It is difficult to answer without knowing what type of athletics you compete in. Certainly contact sports such as kickboxing could result in damage to your breast implants.However high intensity cardio and weightlifting should not be a problem.I would encourage you to not have breast implants that are too large because increased bulk on your chest if you are thin and fit could be cumbersome.By not too large I mean not larger than the 250 cc to 325 cc range in my opinion.Be sure to consult a plastic surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, very experienced in breast surgery, and who has an excellent reputation in your community.

Answer: Breast Implants in a competitive athlete Dear Calicat,A breast augmentation should not directly effect your ability to exercise to full capacity. If you are a body builder or power lifter you may want to consider placing the implants over the pectoral muscle to maintain the full strength of your pectorals. If placed under the muscle also be aware of the hyperanimation deformity (shifting of the implant with pectoral muscle contraction) that may occur during intense exercise. The new form stable implant may be your best option for over the muscle placement, as it is less likely to show rippling. Good luck!

Answer: I am a competitive athlete, will a breast augmentation affect my body from intense exercise (once fully healed)? Many competitive athletes undergo breast augmentation. In my experience I have not encountered specific problems with athletes who have undergone breast augmentation. I do make two adjustments for athletes. First, I recommend using smaller implants. This will allow for all sorts of aerobic exercises without interference. Second, whenever possible I try to insert the implants over the muscle, so as not to interfere with muscle contraction on the implant. But you need to consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to best understand your situation. Good luck!
