If you are in good health and your HIV is under good control, it should be possible to safely undergo a breast augmentation. check first with your primary care physician and your doctors who monitor your HIV. Be certain to let your surgeon know about your HIV status as the surgical team will want to take extra precautions. Best wishes, Dr. Lepore.
Thank you for your question.Being transgender and HIV positive does not prevent you from being able to undergo elective breast augmentation surgery. It is recommended that you are stable and have your condition under control before considering having the operation. Your surgeon will probably want you to receive medical clearance from your medical doctor also. Best of luck in your endeavors!Sincerely,James Fernau, MD, FACSBoard Certified ENTBoard Certified Plastic SurgeryMember of ASPS, ASAPS, ISAPS, The Rhinoplasty Society, AAFPRS, OTO/HNS, ASLMS, International Federation for Adipose Therapeutics & Science
