I have been researching breast augmentation an before getting my hopes up, i'd like to figure out if i am even an ideal candidate for this procedure? I have always sort of assumed that i may not be. I had 3 fibroademonas/ benign breast lumps biopsied (one almost totally removed) in my early 20's. (i'm now 40) with no changes since that time. Would appreciate any input i should keep in mind/whether or not i should even consider a BA.
Answer: Implants Yes, you can still have implants if you want. If you have any tumors now, they can be removed at the same time. Implants will not change your risks for more benign tumors.

Answer: Yes, you are a good candidate. I recommend preoperative mammogram for patients 40 and older I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants and they choose what looks right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts 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. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Fibroadenomas Fibroadenomas are not a contra-indication for breast implants. I recommend getting a mammogram or ultrasound done to document the location and discuss this with your surgeon. He may excise them at the time of augmentation.

Answer: Am I a candidate? From your description you should be able to proceed with breast augmentation. If you have not yet had a mammogram, one is recommended before surgery to give a baseline and to ensure that there are no concerns as you head into surgery.
