Breast Implants of Patient with Preexisting Autoimmune Disorders?

    Breast implants provide a very nice way to address involutional loss or fat loss secondary to weight loss.  Provided the autoimmune diseases are under control, there may not be a contraindication to breast implants.  Kenneth Hughes, MD breast implants Los Angeles, CA

There has been extensive study to show no scientific evidence of a relationship with breast implants and autoimmune disorders. You can get a breast augmentation with confidence even with pre-existing autoimmune disorders. Just be sure to get a check up with your regular doctor to ensure that your health is good to undergo the procedure. Also, check your medications, if any, to be certain what to take around the time of the procedure.

Breast implants have been conclusively shown to have no cause or effect relationship with autoimmune diseases.

It is reasonable to consider breast implants to restore lost characteristics of breasts for any reasons including autoimmune diseases.   

You are correct that the once believed link between breast implants and autoimmune disorders has been scientifically refuted and patients with these disorders can and do have breast augmentation procedures.  However, you first should check with your treating physician to make certain there are no issues in your particular situation before proceeding with the breast augmentation.  Best wishes.
