Micro calcifications in a young patient? Dos this mean I shouldn't go ahead with breast implants?

January 31, 2020
Asked By:Abigrisk in Bay Area, CA

Pre surgery, micro calcifications have been detected during my first ever Mammogram, in a younger patient (34) this can put you at a greater risk of developing breast cancer,does this mean I really shouldn't go ahead with breast implants- which would be under the muscle..? Do any of you surgeons have experience with this issue? I suppose it's my decision/risk, I'm sad to say I know the answer!
