I am a healthy 62 year old. Am I too old for Breast Augmentation?

Hello,Thank you for your question.As long as you are cleared by your physician, and understand the procedure's risks and benefits of this type of elective procedure it should not be a problem for you.The only additional consideration is tissue quality, and if any associated procedures are necessary (such as a breast lift)- this is best determined in your consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.I hope this helps.Thank you,S.P.

Age is not a contraindication for breast augmentation. If you are healthy, you can undergo the procedure. After age 55 we like to get a medical clearance from your primary care physician and an EKG. In my practice we do a lot of breast augmentations and I prefer intravenous sedation for the procedure. See a board certified plastic surgeon for an in person consultation/evaluation. Good luck.
