Am I Too Old to Have Breast Enhancement Surgery?

July 6, 2022

2 Minute Read: 

If you’re over the age of 50 and think you might be too old for breast implants or a lift, you couldn’t be more wrong. As a matter of fact, since you aren’t likely to be getting pregnant or breastfeeding in the future, this makes breast augmentation a great option to enhance or improve your figure. 

When you look at it this way, you can see that when it comes to breast surgery, 50 is young!

A Look at Aging and Aesthetics 

Women today are taking more control over the way they age. Eating healthy, getting regular exercise, using medical-grade skincare, and receiving advanced beauty treatments can all contribute to the longevity of your appearance. 

Why not improve the appearance of your breasts?

The combination of pregnancy, childbirth, and gravity can really do a number on them. Fortunately, there are breast enhancement procedures like a ‘boob job’ or a breast lift that could rejuvenate your breasts, making them more attractive and you more comfortable and self-assured. 

And, there is no age limit for having these procedures.

Being a Healthy Candidate for Breast Surgery

If you have kept yourself in good shape and you are relatively healthy overall, you may be a good candidate for cosmetic breast surgery well into your sixties and even seventies. These issues and more can be explored at the time of your consultation.

Breast Lift, Breast Implants, or Both? Or, Even a Breast Reduction

Depending on your concerns and goals, you may desire or require a breast lift, a breast augmentation, or a combination of the two. An in-depth consultation with your plastic surgeon is the best way to learn which procedure is best suited for you.

If your breasts are too large and droopy, it may be that a breast reduction would be the appropriate procedure for you. You reduce their size and enhance theirs and your appearance. 

In some cases, breast implants and a lift may be needed to achieve your goals.
