Can I Have a Breast Augmentation While I Have a UTI?

You may have to reschedule your surgery, but ask your surgeon first. UTI can increase the risk of infection in another part of your body.

You should call your surgeon and ask him. Most of us would prefer not to place implants if there is a chance the patient has a UTI

Reschedule your surgery.  It's always a bad idea to perform elective surgery when there is infection elsewhere in the body.  Get your UTI cleared up first.

You should not take the risk. Remember that this is an elective surgery and you should decrease any potential complications. Having a focus of infection elsewhere in the body as we put your implants is not a good idea.

No.  Conditions should be perfect to get implants.In breast augmentation I have chosen to spend time reviewing
photographs with patients to fully understand their expectation of size and
shape. Many times this simply raises
more questions. I will make measurements
and use the implant guides to allow the patient to understand exactly the sizes
that are reasonable for their body type and measurements.
