I've never had a history of cancer and I'm fairly healthy young individual. Should I get a breast ultrasound to determine anything abnormal prior to going to Cali for a breast augmentation surgery?

Answer: I'm getting my breasts done in Cali Colombia. Is it mandatory to get a breast exam in my country prior to going to Colombia? Hello, Thank you for the question. For young patients under 40 without any family history of breast cancer, typically no breast imaging is required. I would seek an in-person evaluation by the Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon, in order to discuss your goals and concerns for the best cosmetic results. I hope this helps.Best regards, Dr. Karanetz Dr. Irena KaranetzBreast Fellowship-TrainedBoard Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Breast augmentation It depends on your age. If you’re over 40 it’s not a bad idea to get a mammogram. As to whether your surgeon requires it. Some do some don’t. Call their office to ask
