If I have cystic fibrosis, can I still do breast implants?

If your medical doctor or pulmonologist clears you for surgery than you can have your breast implants placed. It all depends on your health status. I hope this has helped.

Thank you for the questions. It is possible for you to get implants with cystic fibrosis if you are medically cleared by your doctor and pulmonologist first. Breast augmentation requires general anesthesia so medical clearance is important especially for people with lung problems.

There is no absolute contraindication to breast augmentation in the setting of CF. You should, however, obtain pulmonary clearance prior to surgery. This will ensure that you are healthy enough to undergo surgery.As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).

Assuming  you have "clearance" from your pulmonologist, you may be able to proceed. If so, careful selection of plastic surgeon, anesthesia provider,  and fully accredited surgery facility (as always) will be important.   Best wishes.

If your pulmonary or medical doctor has cleared you for elective surgery, then your plastic surgeon will probably consider you a good candidate. Please discuss this first with your medical doctor.

Thank you for your question. You need a clearance from your physician and your PS and anesthesiology need to know about it before surgery for planning

Cystic Fibrosis is not an absolute contraindication. It is a factor, and you will need to be medically cleared prior to surgery. Your surgeon and MD Anesthesiologist would need to work closely with your pulmonologist to develop an appropriate surgical plan. Consult with an experienced and expert board certified plastic surgeon to understand your options. 

I would require a complete pulmonary workup and clearance. Also I would do the operation as outpatient in hospital operating room setting. Never hurts to be safe..
