What is the best age for augmentation?

The population of women seeking breast augmentation has changed dramatically in the last twenty years as women continue to live longer and live healthier. And while the average age of women seeking this procedure still centers around 25-45 years of age, more and women in their 50’s and early 60’s are consulting with Plastic Surgeons such as Dr. Gregory A. Buford to discuss their options for breast enhancement. Most are doing so because their children are now grown, they see changes to their breasts as a result of pregnancy and breast feeding, and they have the financial freedom to seek out this option and feel that they are still young enough to enjoy it for years to come.

While there is no best age for breast enhancement, like most Board Certified Plastic Surgeons Dr. Gregory A. Buford prefers to wait until your breasts have completed growing. As such, he rarely operates on patients under the age of 18 and only in limited circumstances.
