Is it safe to have a BA if you've had a previous heart problem?

With any heart failure history, you would be required to have medical clearance, labs, and EKG from your primary care doctor prior to breast augmentation or any elective cosmetic surgery. You may be referred to a cardiologist if anything in the workup warrants further investigation prior to surgery.  Unfortunately there is no way to answer your question without more information. What do you mean by your heart failed? When in relation to the C section did you have heart failure? Did you have congestive heart failure? Did you have a reaction to a medication given? What type of care did you receive for it, and what type of followup did you have? If nothing was done or recommended, it makes one wonder if you had heart failure at all, or if you got sub-standard care. You can ask for your old medical records, though after this much time you may not be able to access them. Before any of this, a good place to start is with a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon in person, to find out if you are a good candidate for breast augmentation.

Thank you for your question.  Since I am unclear as to what the cardiac event was at the time of your pregnancy, I recommend that you be seen by your primary care physician prior to any elective procedure.  Best to seek care with a board certified plastic surgeon.  Good luck.

A cardiologist clearance is necessary prior to your breast augmentation surgery. Many patients have previous heart ❤️ conditions and safely undergo general anesthesia for elective surgeries.
