Infected nipple piercing. Should I get on an antibiotic to get rid of the infection before surgery?

Thank you for your question.  If you were my patient, my recommendation would be to have you remove your piercing and clear any infection from your nipple for several weeks before pursuing a breast augmentation. Placement of implants should be done in the cleanest environment possible.  An infection in your nipple could seed an implant and cause at best an increased risk of capsular contracture, and at worse a very bad infection requiring antibiotics and the implants to be removed.  It is unlikely your surgeon will allow you to have your surgery if you have an active infection.

Thank you for your question!I recommended you to contact your surgeon office to have him/she check the infected area, I don't perform surgery on a patient with an infection of any kind. Hope you get better soon, Good luck Dr.Llorente
