Am I at a high risk for any problem or infection if proceeding with a surgery such as mesh bra?

A lot of risk is related to other patient factors such as BMI, overall health status, nicotine history, tobacco history. This is part of a comprehensive history and physical that a plastic surgeon (board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery) would perform with you at a consultation.

If you are interested in getting a mesh bra then most likely your breasts have descended from the weight of the implants. You may want to replace with smaller implants. Another alternative to consider is repositioning them. Often times, implants have to be removed and repositioned to change the pocket position and you may be better off changing implants.

Best Wishes,

You are at higher risk of infection since they may be exposed to bacteria from your nipples. They could be injured upon removal. Also, you may lose your warranty once the implants leave your body. It is safer to get new implants.
