Answer: Cyst Management Thank you for your question. It is possible to remove a cyst at the time of augmentation, but I don't think this would be the best recommendation. Cyst management would be best achieved by a general surgeon specializing in breast care, and it sounds like with your history this would be a good relationship to establish. The other aspect with a cyst excision, there could be a loss of volume and a change in breast shape. It would be better to proceed with any type of cyst excision first, allow for adequate healing and then proceed with augmentation which could take into account any volume or shape changes. The two surgeries have different goals, and I believe this would be the best way to proceed. Dann Leonard, MD

Answer: Is it possible to get a cyst out while having a breast augmentation? It is possible but likely recommended against. Removing a cyst could increase the chances of something happening with the implant that could result in issues later on. Ideally the procedures would be separated in time. I would recommend getting the cyst removed first and the implants later in case the cyst removal changes the shape of the breast. It is also important to understand why you are getting breast cysts and make sure any underlying cause is treated before augmentation. As always, be sure to research who performs your surgery to ensure the best likelihood of a positive result.

Answer: Is it possible to get a cyst out while having a breast augmentation? Hi there, yes it is possible to get a out while having a breast augmentation but it may not be the best idea. It depends on where the cyst is and what type of cyst it is. Sometimes, a cyst will have bacteria in it and stirring this pot could possibly lead to a breast implant infection or increased risk for capsular contracture. If it is a deeper cyst, it should also be fully worked up prior to breast augmentation just to make sure that it is not something else. Your plastic surgeon will advise you on the correct course of action for the type of cyst that you have.
