Answers: Can an HIV+ woman still get breast implants without risking more complications than normal? What are the consequences?

I can't see any reason why an HIV+ women could not get breast implants. As long as her CD4 count wasn't too low, and her viral load wasn't uncontrolled --- allowing for her to easily deal with any post-op infections.

I also can't forsee any long term negative effect on her HIV disease, assuming she is in general good health otherwise. There may be short term blips in her CD4 count and viral load. This is assuming she is already on HIV meds.

She should speak with her HIV doc and ask his/her advice. There may be some pre-existing condition which may render the advice above incorrect.

Getting implants will compromise your immune system even more than it already is. It's not a good idea.

why would you get breast implants when you have HIV/AIDS? I don't understand this. Who would, I mean what good will it do?
