21yrs old, 80lbs. According to exams I'm healthy no thyroid problems or anything, just skinny. My question is will I be a good candidate for BA? I'm scared doctors will deny because of my weight. Thank you in advance.
Answer: Breast Augmentation Assuming that you are healthy, I don't think any surgeon would deny you a breast augmentation. However, considering the size of your frame, there may be limitations as to what exactly you can expect to achieve. I would advise you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to discuss your options.

Answer: Breast augmentation: Skinny can be okay You could be a good candidate for breast augmentation. I've taken care of patients who were 80 pounds but they were also 4' 9". On my website, at the link below, you'll be able to see one of my patients who was 5 '7" and 105 pounds. Your height is an important piece of information in addition to your general health. Most of my patients are interested in being proportional, so your plastic surgeon will take your height, weight and starting breast volume into consideration, among other measurements, when helping you decide an appropriate size for you. Good luck to you.

Answer: Breasts augmentation Dear Fanny, Front and side view pictures would have been helpful. You can have your breast augmentation, however you have to be careful about the size selection, so that the implants will not create ripples and be very obvious. Few year ago, I had a 15 years old patient who was totally flat chested , which caused her to be socially isolated . I made her a B cup and used 175 cc implants (relatively very small ). She was happy and her social interaction changed completely. She went to college and few years later visited my office to thank me for the great positive change in her life. Not all results are the same, because experience and skills are very important. So do your due diligence and choose wisely. Always, consult with experienced board certified plastic surgeons , who operate in accredited surgery center for your safety. Check the before and after in the photo gallery, to make sure that they are numerous, consistent and attractive. Best of luck, Dr Widder

Answer: Am I too skinny for Breast Augmentation? Without examining you it is difficult to be certain but it would be unlikely that you'd be denied entirely based on your size if you are otherwise healthy. If you are very thin and don't have much breast tissue then you have an increased chance of implant visibility which may relegate you to submuscular placement as your only option. The only way to know for sure is to book a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to see what your options are. Best of luck!

Answer: Too skinny for breast augmentation? You are very thin- if there is no medical contraindication, you can undergo breast augmentation. Since you are not 22, you would have to get saline, which would out you at higher risk for rippling. An exam and consultation with a plastic surgeon is recommended to discuss sizes and options.
