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!

Answer: Vaccinations and breast augmentation I know of no studies discussing any association of problems of implants with vaccinations. However, some of them can give you flu like symptoms and it may be better to avoid until a few weeks after surgery until you get your strength back

Answer: Vaccinations near breast augmentation surgery date will not cause infection Breast and joint Implant infections could be caused by a temporary presence of bacteria in the blood (bacteremia). All the vaccinations you cited are extracts of dead viruses (H1N1, HPV, Hepatitis A) and 23 dead bacteria (Pneumococcal vaccine). There is NO WAY that either of these vaccine could conceptually or factually infect your breast implants.

Answer: Flu vaccines at the time of breast augmentation I asked our infection control department about the impact of vaccination on breast augmentation surgery and there is no 'hard' information on this procedure specifically. I did learn that currently the H1N1 is given to all hospitalized patients at our hospital, including those after surgery. Vaccination is a priority for our patients with chronic conditions and respiratory disease, and pregnant women are also first on the list. There is no reason I could come across to suggest that you should turn down the opportunity for vaccination. Dental cleaning circulates live bacteria in your system, a different issue altogether, best to avoid.
