Breast implants and Crohn's disease?

May 26, 2015
Asked By:momo12345678 in Cleveland, OH

I am considering breast augmentation, and have Crohn's disease. Is there anything I should be concerned with, like a higher risk of scar tissue forming, or implant rejection? I have been in remission for about 10 years and currently on no medications, healthy. There is not much info out there about this topic. Thank you.
