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.
