I have read that people with existing autoimmune disorders should not get a breast augmentation. Does that include celiac? I really want to get the procedure but am worried that I will be guaranteed to get other auto immune diseases. I should also note that I eat gluten free and have no symptoms associated with celiac.
Answer: Breast augmentation If you currently have your condition under control and are not experiencing flare ups then you should be able to have breast augmentation. There is a plethora of contrasting information on the internet. I encourage you to discuss the procedure and your concerns with your surgeon for the most accurate information.

Answer: Breast implants and autoimmune disorders There are no scientific studies that adequately link autoimmune diseases to breast implants. That being said, there is much discussion on the internet about breast implant illness and autoimmune disease. The patients who get autoimmune diseases and who get breast implants overlap so the results can be delicate to interpret. Getting breast implants should not worsen your celiac. As always, be sure to research the surgeon doing your procedure to increase the chances of a favorable result.

Answer: If declared medically stable by your doctor, there should be no worries with breast augmentation. I recommend an in person evaluation by a plastic surgeon to be measured and discuss your goals. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of former patients with similar measurements. My patients tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what is right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: I am 28, very healthy, and have had celiac for 7 years -- does this mean I should not get a breast augmentation? Part of the challenge is that the science studying long-term effects of celiac and autoimmune disorders is lacking. There’s no hard scientific consensus behind breast implant illness and celiac. In the vast majority of circumstances, breast augmentation patients get a satisfactory outcome. They’re very happy and everything works out. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon via email or Skype to further discuss your concerns.
