Research on Breast Implants
Recent research reveals that:
- 60% of women with saline implants have complications within four years
- 3% suffer leakage within three years causing a deflated implant
- 8% of implants have to be removed within three years
Other risks include:
- hardening of the breasts
- loss of sensation in the nipple or breast
- shifting of the implant from its original position
- interference with mammography reading that may hamper cancer detection
