Planning Cosmetic Surgery? Here’s Why You Should Get a Breast Ultrasound First

In today’s world, we celebrate the freedom to choose what makes us feel confident, beautiful, and empowered. For many women, that includes cosmetic surgery—whether it’s a breast augmentation, reduction, or lift. But as you plan for your transformation, there’s one important step that often gets overlooked: a breast ultrasound before surgery.

At Atlanta Ultrasound, we believe beauty and health should walk hand-in-hand. That’s why we’re passionate about offering preventative breast ultrasounds to help women make safe, informed decisions before going under the knife.

Why a Breast Ultrasound Before Surgery Matters

Breast ultrasound is a non-invasive, radiation-free scan that uses sound waves to create images of the inside of your breast. It’s safe, quick, and painless—but more importantly, it can detect early signs of abnormalities like cysts, masses, or suspicious tissue.

Many cosmetic surgeons recommend or require a scan before surgery to ensure your breast tissue is healthy. But even if they don’t, it’s a smart move for your peace of mind and long-term health.

Here’s What a Pre-Surgery Breast Ultrasound Can Reveal:

✅ Hidden lumps or cysts
✅ Fibrocystic changes that may affect how implants look or feel
✅ Inflammation or infection that could interfere with surgery or healing
✅ Baseline images to compare with future scans if you get implants

Who Should Consider a Pre-Surgery Breast Ultrasound?

• Women planning breast augmentation or reduction

• Women over 30 or those with a family history of breast issues

• Anyone who hasn’t had a breast screening in the past year

• Women who want to feel confident and informed before surgery
