The FDA has put an age limit on who can receive silicone implants. You have to wait until you are 22 years old.

The current FDA requirement for silicone gel implants is that you must be 22 years of age.  You are so close, so just wait.

Thanks for the photo posted. It is best to see a boarded Plastic Surgeon in your area to discuss the use of silicone implants. In MIAMI I would approve the use. Regards Dr. Darryl J. Blinski
