Hello, Planning on getting breast implants in a couple months, and was wondering about how long I will be considered a good candidate for surgery. Early twenties at the moment, would I have to remove them say 40+ years from now? Is there a cut off age where women are no longer allowed to have surgery due to risks of being too old? Or is it more about the health of the patient and # of times they have gone under the knife concerning implant replacement etc. Thanks!

I always advise my patients that replacing implants every 10 years is recommended but not necessary. The companies that manufacture the implants have different warranty programs that you can look into. I recommend discussing these options with your board certified plastic surgeon, who can

Answer: Implants Breast implants can last many years, but are not permanent. At some point, they will have to be exchanged. Age is not a limit either as long as there are no medical issues.An exam and consultation with a plastic surgeon is recommended to discuss your options.
