NEW YORK, NY, May 04, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- There are two federal laws regarding breast augmentation surgery. The first, passed in 2000, states that it is illegal for anyone under the age of 18 to have breast augmentation surgery unless such surgery is for legitimate medical or reconstructive purposes. The second, passed in 2006, states that it is illegal for anyone under the age of 22, even in instances of necessary reconstruction, to have silicone breast implants placed. This means, legally, you need to be 18 to get breast implants and 22 if you'd prefer silicone implants.
The reasons behind these laws are relatively straightforward: Your breasts will continue developing into your early 20s and the emotional maturity of younger teenagers may not fully prepare them for the risks and complications that may accompany breast augmentation. The best way to determine the best age for your breast augmentation surgery is through working with a board-certified, experienced, and reputable plastic surgeon who can fully assess your frame, take developmental issues into account, and help you determine if breast augmentation can help you reach your goals.
Breast Augmentation Considerations
Your breasts are one of your most defined features. Breasts that are symmetrical and sized to enhance your frame can increase your clothing options, improve your self-esteem, and allow you to feel completely comfortable with your body. By contrast, breasts that are not ideally suited to your body may detract from your appearance or leave you feeling less attractive or womanly.
Breast augmentation is a wonderful way to increase breast size, produce symmetry, and enhance the size and shape of your profile. However, as with all elective procedures, it is important to consider when the best time is for a breast enlargement procedure.
When you select a plastic surgeon, be sure to choose one who is board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Board-certification suggests a level of competence and experience that allow your plastic surgeon to guide you to making the best decision for your body. Your plastic surgeon should respect your wishes first and foremost, but also be willing to advise you against procedures that may be ill-suited to your frame or your developmental stage.
Working with a plastic surgeon who sees you as an individual, not as just another patient, is always optimal. You can get a feeling for your potential plastic surgeon during your initial consultation and make the decision best for your body based on his recommendations.
