I had thyroid cancer in 2009 and was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2012. I have 3 kids and am 34 years old. I would like a breast augmentation...
Answer: No increased risks if your doctors feel your health is stable for surgery I recommend an in person evaluation by a plastic surgeon to be measured and discuss your goals. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of former patients with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants. My patients tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size breast implant is right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the implants have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. 90% or more of my patients are back to work in an office setting by the fifth day after surgery. Always a good idea to check with your surgeon's protocol. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author RealSelf Distinguished Hall of Fame Inductee

Answer: Medical clearance Your history of thyroid cancer should not interfere with your desire for breast augmentation. However, you will want to receive medical clearance from the doctor you see for your MS before proceeding with a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you.
