I am 23 y/o and have never had kids. I am 5'3 125 lbs and a small 34B. I can't event fill out the cup right. Sagging? I don't plan on getting the procedure for another 12 months, so what should I do to prepare? From the research so far I like high profile ideal implants and want under the muscle. Thanks!
Answer: Breast augmentation Thanks for your question. Breast implant placement generally does not impact your ability to breast feed, particularly if you place the implant under the pectoralis muscle. It can alter nipple sensitivity. Early 20s are a common time that women consider breast augmentation. I'd suggest meeting with a couple of trusted plastic surgeons in your area to better understand the process, the costs/risks, and find the one you match up with the best.

Answer: Breastfeeding after breast augmentation Hi, thank you for your question. You have a good chance of being able to breastfeed after undergoing breast augmentation surgery regardless of the incision location. There have been several studies published on this topic. A recent study on this topic published in the December 2016 issue of the journal "Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery" found that 93% of women studies who had undergone breast augmentation were able to breastfeed, in comparison to 99% of those who had not had implant surgery. There was no difference based on the type of incision that was used (peri-areolar versus infra-mammary). The best preparation is finding an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon in your area. Good luck and best wishes, Dr. Naidu
