I've had gotten a staph infection (MRSA) from my nipple piercings a few years ago. It is now cleared up. Would this affect me if I wanted to get breast implants later on in the future?

Answer: BA candidate Dear kvylaa98, as long as you don't have an active infection, you should be fine. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Implants Plenty of time has passed. You should be fine to get implants. Oral antibiotics could be used as extra caution, but probably not necessary.
