Have I ruined my chances of ever getting a breast augmentation due to my large sternum tattoo? I have very small breasts, but would not want large implants if it was possible. I have kind of accepted that this would never be possible due to the position of my tattoo. Would the tattoo stretch to cover half of the implant? Would look very weird if so haha.
Answer: Will my tattoo affect a breast augmentation? Many thanks for posting your photo and question.Coincidentally enough, I performeda breast augmentation on someone with a similar tattoo recently. So, in short, the tattoo will not preclude a breast augmentation.However, the tattoo appears to reach right up to your breast crease. That means that with larger breasts, the tattoo will inevitably ride up to be on the lower part of your larger future breasts.If that is ok (which for most people it would be), then there is no problem having an augmentation, however, if this would be an issue for you, then I would recommend against an augmentation.I hope this helps - good luck

Answer: How bad will a breast augmentation look when I have a large sternum tattoo? hello thank you for your question and provided information as well.. based in your question and the picture showed I honestly do not think that the tattoo ruin the possibility of your getting a breast augmentation, and I do not think that the tattoo covers the breast, it is very possible that when you place the implants the curve of the tattoo is just below the breast.My recommendation is that you consult in person with a certified plastic surgeon to see your case.
