I am 17 years old and my breasts are completely underdeveloped. I would like them to be enlarged. Can that operation be done now, at my age?

For breast augmentation with implants, it is usually recommended that a person be older than 18 years, because then the development of the body and breasts ends. Although your parents don't mind, it's important to wait until your body is fully mature, as early surgery can affect long-term results. In some cases, if there is a medical reason and you are physically fully developed, the surgeon may consider surgery at a younger age, but this is rare. I recommend that you consult with a qualified plastic surgeon who will evaluate your situation and recommend the best approach.

Dear, I am thinking about breast surgery, but I am not sure if I only need an augmentation or maybe a lift. I am 165 cm tall and weigh 62 kg. What is the difference between these two procedures and which would be the best option for me?
