Can a plus sized woman get breast implants?

Yes, a plus size woman can get breast implants; especially when there are no health concerns. It would be best that you speak to a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss further. 

Far more important than the technique is the skill and experience of your plastic surgeon. Choose your surgeon rather than the technique and let them explain why one technique may be better than another. See the below link on some suggestions on finding the most qualified Plastic Surgeon for a breast augmentation. Any women desiring breast augmentation surgery is a candidate as long as there are no health problems present which would preclude her from having surgery. If the desired goal is to enhance or restore size and shape or to improve asymmetry, breast augmentation is a viable option. Breast augmentation can improve a body image, self-esteem, self-concept, and quality of life.Ideal Candidates for Breast AugmentationDesire larger, shapelier breasts.Moderate degree of breast sag and smaller breasts, whose problem can be solved by enlargement.One breast that is noticeably smaller or is positioned differently than the other (asymmetry).Uneven chest wall or rib cage.Women requiring breast reconstruction following a mastectomy.Restore breast volume or shape following pregnancy, breast feeding and/or weight loss.

Hi,

Thanks for posting your question. I am happy to try and help you. It is
important to remember that a board certified plastic surgeon will be your best
resource when it comes to an accurate assessment of your situation, and concerns.


Having said that, yes, you can have breast implants. The only question will be if you will require a breast lift regardless of the breast
implant size.

Best wishes,

Dr. Michael J. Brown
