Is breast implants after Pulmonary Embolism possible?

October 13, 2019
Asked By:JandLmom in Orlando, FL

I have been exploring the option of breast implants and was wondering if it is recommended since I have a history of pulmonary embolisms. I had all the genetic testing done to rule out any clotting issues and it was determined it was caused by my switch in Birth control (NuvaRing). I understand once you had them there is a possibility you can get them again, as well as using Lovenox after any surgery. Is it possibly for a surgeon to approve with my history?
