Depends: The fda guidelines for implants are 18 years for saline and 22 for silicone. Exceptions can be made for younger patients with certain types of breast deformities.

18 and up: However, at age 18, sometimes the younger patients don't always fully understand the nature of what the breast lift can and can't do - so realistic expectations are important.

Physically mature: Although age 18 is typically the age of consent there are many other factors that may alter the age for performing surgery and his will include an assessment of your physically maturity, presence of deformity or asymmetry, age at which you may consider nursing, expectations and mental maturity, as well as the extent of the procedure required and many other factors.
