Asked By:maryam ibrahim in Sydney, AU

Hi, I'm a famale 31 years of age, I have dense breast tissue due to hormonal changes from contraceptive pills. I was told by my doctor that it increases the risk of cancer and it's better to remove partial of it.and I'm also willing to get breast implants. Is it possible to reduce the dense tissue is at the same time of having the breast implants?
