What are some examples of patients not being a candidate for a breast augmentation?
Answer: Who is not a candidate? Each patient is evaluated individually to determine if they are a candidate for breast augmentation but there are some general concerns that may exclude them from candidacy. The first is medical history. If the patient has uncontrolled medical conditions that would make surgery unsafe. These can range from bleeding disorders, to high blood pressure, to uncontrolled diabetes to name a few. Your surgeon will review your medical history at your consultation to determine if clearance is needed by a specialist. Another concern would be someone with unrealistic expectations. If someone comes in and would like implants alone to lift the breasts but will not consider a lift as well, then the surgeon knows this patient will end up dissatisfied with poor results. Another example would be someone who is unrealistic or unable to allow time for recovery. If unable then the patient and surgeon may consider meeting again when the patient is better able to arrange for time to heal from surgery.

Answer: Not candidates First, those who have health issues that are not stable enough to have elective surgery should not have elective surgery. Those who are pregnant, trying to get pregnant, or are breast feeding should not have surgery. Those with unknown breast masses should not have surgery until the mass is known to be benign. Those who are not realistic about what can and cannot be done should not have breast surgery. These are some of the more common reasons, but there are more. Those who do not want a breast augmentation should not have one.

Answer: Who can't have Breast aug An example of someone "not being a candidate" for breast augmentation would include a patient who has too much breast ptosis (sagging). If the breasts were too low in position, we would perform a mastopexy (breast lift) first, wait a number of months and then place an implant.

Answer: Breast Augmentation Options That is a very interesting and important question. It is a personal decision a woman must make. Breast implants are not permanent. If you sign up for breast augmentation, you really are signing up for at least two operations. Placement of the implants and sometime down the road, in 10 to 15 years, either exchanging them or removing them. Also women undergoing breast augmentation surgery should be doing it for herself alone! If you are considering this surgery because your boyfriend or husband likes big breasts, it is a mistake in my opinion.
