Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Hello, thank you for your question. 4- 6 weeks is an appropriate amount of waiting time. I recommend you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Thank you for sharing your question.  A number of factors would go into determining timeframe but I would wait approximately 6 weeks after abortion.  Hope this helps.

Caner Kacmaz, MD · Answer

Hi there, thank you for your question. I suggest you to wait for 1,5 month to have the surgery. In meantime, you can start planning your surgery and have consultations with plastic surgeons.

Dear Michelle rose,
every plastic surgeon has his own preoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.

Two things need to occur in order to proceed with a breast augmentation after an abortion.  First you will need to be fully healed with no complications.  Second your hormone levels will need to have dropped to normal.  A pregnancy test is given to every female of child bearing age prior to surgery and that test will have to be negative in order to proceed with surgery.

Pregnancy involves a number of changes, both physical and physiological.I normally advise waiting 3 months following a termination or a miscarriage.Following childbirth, I normally recommend waiting at least 9 months following cessation of breast feeding.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

It would depend upon how fair along you were in your pregnancy before you aborted the child. If you were very early, then an augmentation could be done at any time. If you waited until your third trimester, then you would need to wait a few more months.

Hi, thanks for your question. Each surgeon will have their own protocol with regards to this, so it would be best to consult the surgeon who will be performing the surgery. Please speak to them about this and any other concerns you might have about your procedure.

I believe that you should be able to undergo  breast augmentation 4-6 weeks after an abortion. But I would also confer with your gynecologist. Good luck!
