Will Vaccinations Near Breast Augmentation Surgery Date Cause Complication?

November 11, 2009
Asked By:Rita_ in San Francisco

I'm considering getting the following vaccines, but the vaccination date may be very close to the breast augmentation surgery date (either a few days before or after surgery). Will these vaccinations affect breast augmentation surgery result or cause complications (capsular contracture, infections, etc.)? I asked this because I've read that dental cleaning may cause capsular contracture, so I'm wondering whether vaccines may cause breast implant complication too, if vaccines are injected very close to breast surgery date? Vaccines I'm considering: H1N1 vaccine Pneumococcal vaccine HPV vaccine Hepatitis A vaccine Thanks in advance for your answer!
