Answer: Am I able to get breast implants with nmo/ms? Hello and thank you for your question. Generally speaking, as long as you have a stable medical condition that is adequately treated, you might be able to have the breast augmentation. I would suggest that you see a board-certified plastic surgeon for a more complete evaluation. Your plastic surgeon may want to consult your neurologist in order to determine your candidacy and the timing of your procedure while you are least affected by the medication.

Answer: BA candidate Dear Thoughtful984143, you will need to get a clearance from your doctor prior to surgery. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
