The Different Kinds of Implants Available

implanthealdev on October 9, 2023

To this day, breast augmentation remains one of the top-performed cosmetic procedures around the world. However, with so many different kinds of implants available, patients can feel overwhelmed with choices, so in this blog, we will break it down to help you decide which solution is right for you. 

Filling

Before we start looking at the different shapes available, it helps to understand what breast implants are made of, as this plays a pivotal role in your final result. 

Silicone 

Silicone breast implants are FDA-approved and the most widely used implant type.  They are filled with a viscous silicone gel that mimics the feeling of natural breast tissue, often making it the go-to choice for women opting for a more natural result. 

In the event of a breast implant rupture, it can be a little harder to identify as the breast will not deflate immediately. Silicone gel usually remains within the implant shell, and breast pocket meaning deflation happens over a period of time, making it more difficult to detect. This is often referred to as a silent rupture. 

Whilst silicone ruptures are not considered a medical emergency, if you are concerned, we advise you to speak to your surgeon. 

Saline

Saline implants are made up of sterile salt water and provide a uniform shape, firmness and feel to the overall breast. There is also a structured saline option that contains an inner structure that aims to make the implant feel a little more natural. 

Now, because the solution used is a lot thinner in consistency, saline implant ruptures can be easier to detect as the implant will deflate almost immediately as the saline leaks from the implant. 

Again, ruptures within saline breast implants are not considered to be dangerous, or a medical emergency as saline is naturally expelled by the body. However, we do advise you to speak to your surgeon to have the implant removed and replaced. 

No matter what filling you end up going with, we recommend booking in for regular breast health screenings to detect any abnormalities, including ruptures, and monitor your overall breast health. At Implant Health, we use MRI scans to screen both the breast and implant to identify any complications and refer you to a trained specialist for treatment. 

Shape

In terms of which shape, you can either go for round implants or teardrop-shaped implants. Both provide a slightly different appearance, so which one you select will depend on your desired outcome. 

Round 

Round implants look more spherical, with more volume towards the top of the breast which makes the breast look fuller. If you aim to create more fullness to fill out clothing and achieve more projection, then round implants may be the option for you.  

In addition, round breast implants are the same shape all over, meaning there is less concern about them rotating out of place.

Teardrop 

Teardrop implants often look the most natural in terms of breast structure. Like natural breast tissue, the majority of the volume is focused towards the bottom of the breast and is more tapered towards the top. 

Now, in the unlikely event that your implant moves, you may notice the breast shape change. To correct this, you should see a surgeon who will be able to perform a separate procedure to correct it.  

If you need any help with the different types of implants available, or you would like to book a breast health screening to monitor the health of your current breast implants, contact our experts.

 

Getting a Breast Implant Check

Getting a Breast Implant Check

If you have undergone or are considering a breast augmentation, you may be looking at getting a breast implant health check the overall health of your implant. 

On average, breast implants should last around 10 years, before we recommend changing or removing them. Whilst the procedure is considered safe, it is important to remember that like all medical procedures, they do carry a risk of complication. To help mitigate the risk of complications, we advise getting a breast implant health check to check every couple of years. 

Dedicated breast health screenings, such as Implant Health use specialist MRI equipment to view the overall health and condition of your implant, and your overall breast health to detect any signs of complication or abnormality. 

What Complications could Arise?

Now, complications arising from breast augmentations are very rare. However, if you suspect something is wrong, you must contact a trained professional who will be able to identify and treat the problem. 

Here are some of the complications that could arise from breast augmentation procedures.

Breast Implant Infection

To your body, breast implants are a foreign material and therefore there is a slight risk they could become infected. If you experience high fever, breast pain, swelling, tenderness, or breast discharge, you should seek the help of a professional to provide treatment. 

Capsular contracture

Following your procedure, a thin layer of scar tissue will form around the surface of the implant, this is known as a capsule and is completely natural. However, in some cases, this capsule may become abnormally thickened and start to cause discomfort. We call this a capsular contracture, which may require surgery to remove the hard capsule of tissue. 

Breast Implant Malposition

This happens when a breast implant moves, causing issues with positioning. It can happen soon after surgery later down the line but symptoms usually manifest as significant and visible changes to the overall shape and positioning. 

Breast Implant Ruptures

This is more common in older implants, but they can occur at any time. Symptoms to look out for include a significant change in breast size or shape, hardness around the implant, lumps, and redness to the skin. 

In some cases, ruptures may not present any symptoms, this is known as a silent rupture. Again, we recommend having your implants checked regularly to avoid any problems.

BIA-ALCL

BIA-ALCL, also known as breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma is an extremely rare blood cancer that forms in the capsule of breast implants. Symptoms include a build-up of fluid or a hard lump developing around the breast. 

Seroma 

If your breast implant ruptures or you have a low-grade infection it can cause fluid to collect around the implant. The most common symptom to look out for is an increase in overall breast size. 

If you have noticed any sudden changes in your breasts following a breast augmentation, getting a breast implant check can help to identify any underlying issues. At Implant Health, any abnormalities, revisions, and required treatment will be discussed with you and dealt with by specialist plastic surgeons, and Doctors.

Here at Implant Health, we strive to empower and support you through your implant journey, so if you have any concerns or would like to book a breast screening contact our team.  

 

Why do Breast Implants Hurt?

implanthealdev on October 9, 2023

If you have recently undergone breast augmentation or are considering it, you may be wondering how much pain is normal and what you can expect during the healing period.

However, several other reasons may cause your breast implants to hurt including complications. Now, when it comes to complications associated with breast procedures, they are considered rare but if you suspect there is something wrong, we advise you to contact a professional for an examination. 

What does the Healing Process Look like?

Naturally, during your procedure, your surgeon will need to create an incision and stretch the existing breast tissue to place your implant. 

This may result in some post-operative pain, swelling, and tenderness which is completely natural and part of the healing process. Any pain can be controlled using anti-inflammatory medication and should begin to improve within a few weeks of surgery. 

What complications cause pain?

Now, whilst the risk of complication is low certain conditions may cause breast implant pain. 

Capsular contracture

 Capsular contracture occurs when the body’s immune system responds to the presence of a foreign object, such as a breast implant, by forming scar tissue around it. 

In some cases, this scar tissue can become thick and constrict, causing pain and discomfort.

Implant rupture or leakage 

If a breast implant ruptures, it can cause pain and discomfort. This can happen due to trauma, aging of the implant, or a defect in the implant.

Implant displacement

Sometimes, breast implants can shift or move out of place, causing pain and discomfort.

Breast Implant Infection 

Breast implant infections are rare but can occur. If an infection develops, it can cause pain, swelling, redness, and other symptoms.

If you are experiencing persistent pain or discomfort with your breast implants, you must speak with your plastic surgeon. They can perform a physical examination, imaging tests, or other diagnostic tests to determine the cause of your symptoms and recommend the appropriate treatment.

What are the signs of a Ruptured breast implant

implanthealdev on October 1, 2023

What are the signs of a ruptured breast implant? If you have recently undergone a breast augmentation, or are considering one, ruptures are something to be aware of. 

Breast augmentation surgery remains one of the top-performed surgeries around the world and carries a very low complication risk. One of the complications associated with breast implants is a rupture.

What is a Breast Implant Rupture?

A breast implant rupture occurs when the outer shell of a breast implant breaks or tears, causing the contents of the implant to leak into the surrounding tissue. This can occur with both saline and silicone implants.

In the case of a saline implant rupture, the saltwater solution is harmlessly absorbed by the body, and the breast will appear deflated or significantly smaller. 

In contrast, a silicone implant rupture may not be immediately noticeable, and the silicone gel may leak out of the implant and into the surrounding breast tissue. This can potentially cause changes in breast shape, firmness, or size, as well as pain, tenderness, or swelling.

Why do Breast Implant Ruptures happen?

A breast implant rupture can occur for a variety of reasons, such as trauma to the breast, aging of the implant, or a manufacturing defect. In some cases, there may be no obvious cause. It’s important to note that breast implant ruptures are not common and most implants last for many years without any problems.

If a breast implant rupture is suspected, imaging tests such as ultrasound, or MRI may be used to confirm the diagnosis. Treatment options may include breast implant removal or breast implant replacement, depending on the specific situation and the individual’s goals.

What are the Symptoms of a Rupture?

The symptoms of a breast implant rupture can vary depending on the type of implant and the amount and location of the leaked material. Here are some common symptoms associated with breast implant rupture:

  • Pain or discomfort in the breast
  • Changes in breast size, shape, or appearance
  • Swelling, redness, or warmth in the breast
  • Lumps or masses in the breast
  • Hardening or thickening of the breast tissue
  • Numbness or tingling in the breast or arm
  • Skin rash or irritation
  • Enlarged lymph nodes in the armpit

It’s important to note that not all breast implant ruptures cause symptoms and some ruptures may go undetected for years. That’s why we recommended that you schedule regular imaging tests to help identify any potential complications.

If a breast implant rupture is suspected, it’s important to seek medical attention promptly to determine the best course of treatment.

If you are concerned about breast implant ruptures or wish to book a screening with Implant Health, contact our experts.

 

Breast Implants Hurting

implanthealdev on September 19, 2023

Breast Implants Hurting (what could it be?)

Following a breast augmentation, it is natural to experience pain and discomfort during your recovery period. However, persistent pain or irritation outside of the healing period is not a normal result of breast augmentation and should be checked by a professional. 

Whilst breast augmentation remains one of the safest cosmetic procedures on the market, it is important to remember that all medical procedures come with a risk of complication. 

Here are some of the possible reasons breast implants could hurt. 

Breast Implant Rupture

Whilst implant ruptures are most common in older implants, they can happen at any time. A rupture is when an implant tear inside the breast capsule, causing the filling to leak out. 

Now, some ruptures can be difficult to spot, but they can cause the surrounding breast tissue to become irritated, and you may experience pain, swelling, a significant hardening of the breast, or a change in size and shape.  

If you have saline implants, a rupture will result in almost immediate deflation making it easy to diagnose. In contrast, silicone implants can be difficult to detect without an ultrasound because the silicone solution is viscous and will leak out at a much slower rate, and usually remain around the breast capsule.  

Whilst ruptures are not considered dangerous, or a life-threatening emergency it is important that you have your breasts checked by a professional. We recommend undergoing regular breast screenings to monitor the overall health of your implant and detect any complications such as rupture that may require revision.

Capsular Contracture

Capsular contracture is a fairly rare complication, but it can occur with both saline and silicone implants. 

Naturally, when an implant is placed the body forms a harmless capsule of scar tissue around the implant. Now, in most cases this scar tissue remains soft and flexible, however, sometimes it may become overly firm and start to squeeze the implant. This is known as capsular contracture. 

Typically, symptoms of capsular contracture manifest as pain, significant hardening of the breast, or visible changes to the breast’s size or shape. If you are concerned, we recommend having your implants reviewed by a professional as soon as possible to mitigate the risk of infection.  

Necrosis 

Necrosis is a more serious cause of breast implant pain that occurs when blood flow and oxygen to the area are restricted. This can result in the death of healthy breast tissue, known as necrosis. 

One of the key symptoms of necrosis to be aware of is a change in your skin colour around the breast becoming blue, purple, or black. You may also experience significant pain and should have your breasts checked as soon as possible to reduce the risk of any long-term damage.   

Lymph node Damage

Following your breast augmentation procedure, you may experience slight swelling or tenderness in the lymph nodes around your armpit. 

If the pain persists beyond your natural healing period, there is a slight chance that the lymph nodes were damaged during surgery. If you have silicone implants, it can also be symptomatic of a rupture as silicone gathers around the area. 

Seroma 

Following breast augmentation procedures, a fluid known as serous is secreted and can gather around the incision area. If there is an excessive amount of serous fluid, it may develop a lump that can be painful to the touch known as a seroma.

It is important to closely monitor how your wounds heal following your procedure, and inform your surgeon of any additional pain, burning sensations, or changes to skin texture that could indicate a seroma. 

In the case of a seroma developing, your surgeon will usually call you in to check everything is healing as it should and drain the lump to help with any pain. 

Hematoma 

Hematoma is caused by blood from the incision pooling and clotting around the nearby tissue causing small, painful lumps to form. 

Usually, hematoma manifests as pain, swelling, and bruising around the breast. Now, in most cases, hematomas can clear up by themselves given time, but you must be checked out by a professional if you are concerned to identify and advise on any potential complications. 

It is important to remember that the average lifespan of a breast implant is around 10 years, after that they should be replaced or removed. Now, whilst complications associated with breast augmentation is rare, we recommend you undergo regular breast health screenings, such as an Implant Health screening to monitor the ongoing health of both the implant and the surrounding breast to identify any potential complications.

Can Breast Implants Cause Health Problems

implanthealdev on September 19, 2023

Can Breast Implants Cause Health Problems?

Can breast implants cause health problems? If you have undergone or are considering having a breast augmentation this is one question you may be pondering. 

Breast augmentations are considered safe; however, it is important to remember that like any medical procedure, they do carry a risk of complication. 

What Complications Should I be Aware of?

So, can breast implants cause health problems? Being one of the most popular, and sought-after cosmetic procedures, complications arising from breast augmentations are very rare. However, if you suspect something is wrong, it is important to get your implants checked by a professional as soon as possible. 

On average, the lifespan of a breast implant is around 10 years, but we recommend having your implants checked by a professional every couple of years to ensure it is still healthy. 

Below, we have detailed some of the complications to look out for. 

Breast Implant Infection

It is important to remember that breast implants are a foreign material and therefore can become infected. If you develop a high fever, breast pain, swelling, tenderness, breast discharge, or the breast feels hot to the touch, we advise you to seek professional help right away. 

Infections can generally be treated with antibiotics, but in more severe cases, we may need to clean the infected tissue and remove the implant.  

Breast Implant Ruptures

This type of complication is more common in older implants; however, they can occur at any time. Symptoms to look out for include a change in breast size or shape, hardness around the implant, redness on the skin, or lumps under the arm. 

For some patients, a ruptured implant may not present with any symptoms, this is known as a silent rupture. Again, we recommend having your implants checked regularly to avoid any problems.

Capsular contracture

It is natural for women to develop a thin layer of scar tissue over the surface of the implant, this is known as a capsule. However, if this capsule becomes abnormally thickened it may begin to cause discomfort in the breast or change its shape. 

We call this a capsular contracture, which may require surgery to remove the hard capsule of tissue. 

Breast Implant Malposition

This happens when the implant begins to move. It can happen soon after the initial surgery or sometimes later down the line. Now, there are several types of positioning problems, including: 

Rotation – this is more common with teardrop-shaped implants

Implant flipping – which results in a sudden change of shape

Slipping – where the implant slips to the bottom or the side of the breast.

Seroma (fluid around the implant)

If your implant ruptures or you have a low-grade infection it can cause fluid to collect around the implant. In rare cases, the fluid may be caused by anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) that develops around breast capsules. The most common symptom to look out for is an increase in your overall breast size, and you should always seek professional help to mitigate any further risk. 

BIA-ALCL

BIA-ALCL, otherwise known as breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma is an extremely rare blood cancer that forms in the capsule of breast implants. It is thought to occur around 8-10 years following your procedure, and symptoms can include a build-up of fluid or a hard lump that you can feel. 

Here at Implant Health, we strive to empower and support you through your implant journey, so if you have any concerns or would like to book a screening contact our team.  

 

How to tell if my breast Implants have ruptured? 

implanthealdev on September 13, 2023

How can you tell if your breast implants are ruptured? It’s not always easy to diagnose a ruptured implant without the help of a qualified plastic surgeon, or an MRI scan, but in this blog, we will explore what to look out for and what to do if you suspect your implant has ruptured. 

What is a Breast Implant Rupture?

Before looking at ways to determine if your breast implant is ruptured, it helps to understand what a rupture is and how they occur. 

Breast implant ruptures are defined as a small tear in the breast implant itself which causes the filling to leak out into the surrounding breast tissue. Now, ruptures are most common in older implants but can happen at any time which is why we recommend undergoing regular screenings. 

Ruptures can happen with both saline, and silicone implants and whilst it is not considered to pose a health risk, you should consult a trained surgeon.

Some ruptures can be difficult to notice, a ruptured breast implant can cause surrounding breast tissue to become irritated, and you may experience:

  • Pain or swelling
  • Hardening of the breast
  • Lumps 
  • Changes in size or shape

With saline implants, the first thing people commonly notice is a significant change in the overall shape and size of the breast as well as some localised tenderness to the area. Now, saline implants are filled with a sterile saltwater solution that can be absorbed by the body.

If you have silicone implants, it may be a little more difficult to tell. When a silicone implant ruptures, the silicone generally stays around the breast tissue so you may not notice any visible changes. This is known as a silent rupture. However, with a silent breast implant rupture, you may notice a significant hardening of the breast or pain around the area if the scar tissue becomes irritated. 

Again, silicone isn’t considered to pose any health risk, but the fluid can sometimes leak outside of the breast capsule and cannot be removed. 

Treatment for a ruptured breast implant

If you suspect your breast implant has ruptured, it is important that you speak to your surgeon, or book a scan at one of our Implant Health clinics where our team of specialist surgeons and radiologists will arrange a thorough assessment of your implant, and surrounding breast to determine a suitable course of action. 

Typically, a surgeon will recommend a small surgery to remove the ruptured implant, treat the scar tissue if necessary and replace the implant if necessary. 

It is important to remember that breast implants are not guaranteed to last a lifetime. Most implants have a lifespan of approximately 10 years, and after that may require changing or removal. 

For more information on breast implant ruptures, or to book a screening at one of our implant Health clinics, contact our team.

My breast implant is the wrong shape – what can I do?

implanthealdev on September 1, 2023

Whilst extremely rare, breast augmentations do carry a slight risk of complication. One of the main symptoms that something is wrong is a significant change in the look and feel of your implant. 

In this blog, we will look at some of the possible complications that could cause your breast implant to change shape and treatment for each condition.

What are the complications?

Breast augmentations remain the most sought-after cosmetic procedures around today. Now, complications from breast augmentations are rare but it is important to have your implants checked by a professional to treat the issue. 

On average, the lifespan of both saline and silicone breast implants is around 10 years. After this time, it is recommended that you have them replaced or removed. However, during the lifespan of your implant, we recommend you book regular breast health screenings to ensure your implant and surrounding breast remain healthy. 

Here are some complications that could cause your breast to change shape:

Capsular contracture

Following breast augmentations, it is natural to develop a thin layer of scar tissue over the surface of the implant. If this tissue becomes abnormally thickened it can cause discomfort in the breast and result in it changing shape. 

We call this a capsular contracture and sometimes will recommend further surgery to remove the affected tissue. 

Breast Implant Ruptures

Breast Implant Ruptures are more common in older implants, but they can occur at any time. If you have a saline implant, one of the main symptoms to look out for is a significant change in breast shape, and size. 

In silicone implants, ruptures may be a little more difficult to identify as the silicone generally remains around the breast tissue, but you may notice hardening of the breast.

Breast Implant Rupture treatment typically involves surgery to remove the implant, and replace it if necessary. 

Breast Implant Malposition

This can happen following the initial surgery, or later in life but Implant Malposition happens when the implant changes position in the breast. Changes can include rotation, flipping, and slipping but all will manifest as a change in overall breast shape. 

If you suspect your breast implant has moved, contact your surgeon, or book a screening at one of our facilities. A qualified surgeon will be able to correct the implant position or replace it if necessary. 

Seroma (fluid around the implant)

If your implant ruptures or you have developed a minor infection, fluid can collect around the implant which in most cases causes the breast to increase in overall size. You should always seek professional help to identify and treat the seroma to mitigate any further problems.  

Will breast implant screening help?

Yes. Regular breast screenings can monitor how your breast implants change over time and the overall health of the surrounding breast. Any change in shape or size will be detected during your screenings, and we will be able to identify the cause and recommend a suitable course of action.

For more information on breast implant infections, or to book a breast health screening contact our team at Implant Health.

Understanding Breast Implant Rupture

implanthealdev on August 1, 2023

Breast augmentation has provided countless women with the opportunity to enhance their self-confidence and body image. While breast implants are generally durable, there is a possibility of rupture over time. Recognizing the signs of a potential rupture and taking prompt action is crucial for ensuring your health and well-being.

Common Causes and Types of Breast Rupture:

Breast implant rupture can occur due to various factors, including the age of the implant, trauma, or wear and tear. Ruptures can be categorized into two types:

Silent Rupture: This type of rupture occurs when the implant shell tears or develops a hole without causing noticeable symptoms. Silent ruptures can be challenging to detect without imaging techniques.

Symptomatic Rupture: In some cases, a rupture may cause visible changes or physical discomfort. The symptoms may be more apparent and prompt individuals to seek medical attention.

Signs and Symptoms of Rupture:

While some ruptures might not cause noticeable symptoms, there are signs to watch for that could indicate a potential issue:

Change in Breast Shape: A ruptured implant may cause a change in the shape, size, or symmetry of the breast.

Breast Pain or Discomfort: Some individuals may experience discomfort, pain, or tenderness in the breast or chest area.

Change in Texture: The breast may feel different to the touch, with uneven or lumpy areas.

Visible Rippling or Wrinkling: A rupture might lead to visible rippling or wrinkling of the breast implant.

Change in Breast Sensation: Altered sensation or numbness in the breast or nipple area may occur.

Taking Action and Seeking Medical Evaluation:

If you suspect that your breast implant has ruptured, it’s important to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon or a medical professional with experience in breast implant evaluations. They will conduct a thorough physical examination and recommend further tests, which may include:

Imaging: Imaging techniques such as ultrasound, MRI, or mammogram can help visualize the condition of the implant and determine whether it has ruptured.

Exploratory Surgery: In some cases, surgical exploration may be necessary to confirm a rupture and remove the implant if needed.

Treatment Options:

The treatment for a ruptured breast implant depends on the type of rupture and the condition of the implant. If a silent rupture is detected, your surgeon will discuss whether implant removal or replacement is necessary. In the case of a symptomatic rupture, surgical intervention may be recommended to address any discomfort, restore the breast’s appearance, and replace the implant.

Conclusion:

Being vigilant about the signs of breast implant rupture is essential for maintaining your health and peace of mind. If you suspect a rupture, don’t delay seeking medical evaluation. Early detection and appropriate action can lead to timely intervention and ensure the best possible outcomes. Regular follow-ups with your plastic surgeon and open communication about any changes you notice will contribute to your ongoing well-being and satisfaction with your breast augmentation results.
