I'm RH factor / O - blood type I want to get breast implants, is there evidence it could cause rejection or complications?

Question

Richard Hainer, MD · Answer

Your blood type should have no bearing at all on any sort of plastic surgery or any surgery procedure for that matter. You should have no issues going forward with your procedure. Good luck

Nelson Castillo, MD · Answer

Thank you for your excellent question.  Blood type will not impact any incidence of complications associated with breast implants.  Hope this helps.

Robert Singer, MD · Answer

There is no scientific evidence linking blood type with breast implant complications.I would suggest you find a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) or the Canadian Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (CSAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. Discuss you concerns with that plastic surgeon in person. Robert Singer, MD FACS

There is no evidence that blood type and breast implants have any relationship to each other, you should be fine. Best of luck!

Steven Wallach, MD · Answer

I do not know of any studies suggesting that implants could be rejected as a result of a specific blood type.  Best of luck.
