Every surgical procedure involves risks

It is very uncommon for certain risks to occur when silicone breast implants are placed.

However some standard risks can occur following surgery and anaesthesia. Even if silicone breast implants are placed as they should, there is always a risk of secondary bleeding, infection, bad healing, implant displacement, change in sensation, etc.

Capsular contracture around certain silicone breast implants

Silicone breast implants may cause a reaction of your body against a foreign body. This reaction consists of the formation of contractile tissue around the silicone implant.

Sometimes this protective membrane becomes thicker and can get painfully hard. The capsule can wrinkle and the shape of the breast may change significantly. In this case it would be necessary to renew the breast implants.

Leakage of some silicone breast implants

The filling of breast implants mainly exists of a saline solution or silicone gel. The implant pocket of silicone breast implants has a minor risk of leakage, because it is slightly penetrable.

In case of a leaking the filling might migrate through the chest tissues and throughout the body. Opinions about the implications of a leakage of breast implants on your health are quite different.
