Breast implant replacement - is there any advantage to doing it immediately?

February 15, 2023
Asked By:Unbalanced700 in Glendora, California

If you decide you want bigger implants, is there any advantage to doing it immediately or is it better to wait for current ones to heal? My thought was right away would be better to reduce overall healing time but I am usually wrong! Thanks for any advice.
