You need to be at least 18 years old to have saline breast implants and at least 22 years old to have silicone breast implants. There is no upper age limit for breast augmentation. Many older patients who are in excellent health could potentially benefit from breast augmentation. As long as you are in strong health and free of any major medical conditions, you should be a candidate for breast implants. Consult with your family physician prior to considering breast augmentation surgery.
