What are the negatives of breast implants?

Too big an implant a: Too big an implant is probably one of the problem.Of course there are several complications onebwill have to keep in mind, eg, leaking in saline implant, capsular contracture, rippling, malposition etc.

Depends: If you are considering breast implants as cosmetic and not reconstructive, the implications are different. Breast implants, both saline and silicone are provisionally approved pending 10 year studies by their makers.The reporting of any problems has been less than optimal.The question of autoimmune disorders and connective tissue disorders is still unknown.Therefore, buyer be aware. We're not sure.

Many but +outweigh-: There are many potential negatives but the positives outweigh the negatives and include: infection, hematoma, wound breakdown, asymmetry, implant exposure/extrusion/rupture overcorrection/undercorrection, contour irregularity, capsular contracture, distortion with muscular contraction, interference with oncologic evaluation of the breast, interference with nipple sensation, nursing or aging, etc.

Several: Breast implants are imperfect devices. They may settle unevenly, too high or too low. They may get infected (rare). They do not last forever and the scar around them may harden with time. Radiologists say they make mammograms harder to read though no study has shown women with implants do any worse if they get breast cancer. Most who choose to get implants want new ones if the old ones wear out.

Personal Decision: Any surgery has risks and benefits and breast implants are no different. The best thing is to have a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your specific concerns.

Risks & Benefits: Every surgery has risks. Breast implants can become displaced, develop capsular contracture, infection, thinning of the overlying breast tissue, and other problems. Discuss these risks with your plastic surgeon.
