Should I Wait Until After I Have Kids to Get Breast Implants?

When is the right time for breast implants, before kids or after? The good news is, the timing is up to you. You can get implants before kids, between kids, or after kids. Some women get implants in their late teens, others wait until middle age. If you’re considering implants, but don’t know if the timing is right, come see us. We can help you weigh your options and provide information and recommendations so you can make an informed choice. Call and schedule your consultation today.

How Young Is Too Young for Breast Implants?

We want your breasts to be fully developed before breast augmentation, so most women are 18 years old before undergoing augmentation. Many opt for breast augmentation as soon as they can get it so they can have breasts they love sooner. Breast augmentation can also correct breast deformities and asymmetry. You certainly don’t have to wait a lifetime to have your ideal breasts.

What Happens If I Have Kids After Breast Augmentation?

Pregnancy can take its toll on the breasts. Many women experience breast sagging for the first time after pregnancy. You may lose breast volume or experience changes in shape and size. Since pregnancy and breastfeeding can cause the breasts to quickly expand, you may get stretch marks or lose skin elasticity. These changes will happen with or without implants. If you’re unhappy with the appearance of your breasts after the birth of your children, come see us. If you already have implants, we can perform a revisionary surgery to reposition your implants and restore a youthful breast appearance. If you’ve waited, we can evaluate whether an augmentation alone or a lift with augmentation will give you the result you desire.

Can I Breastfeed After Breast Augmentation?

Many women worry that they’ll be unable to breastfeed after getting breast implants. The good news is, many women don’t experience a problem. Many go on to successfully breastfeed with implants. If this is a priority for you, tell us. We can increase your chances of future breastfeeding success by using certain incision types and implant placement options.

Stop dreaming of enhancing your breasts and make it a reality. You don’t have to wait until after kids for your breast augmentation. Call and schedule your consultation at Restora Austin Plastic Surgery Centre today.
