1 year after breast augmentation

hi, this is dr. hourglass, and welcome toanother video in our channel wonder breasts. today we are going to discuss rupture of siliconeimplants. in this channel we discuss everything relatedto breast surgery. welcome back. one of the complications that can occur withsilicone breast implants is rupture of the implant. people are concerned that if there is a rupture,the silicone will harm your body and cause problems or disease as it is exposed to thesurrounding soft tissue. the silicone breast implants currently onthe market are better than the ones we had twenty or thirty years ago.

with advances in surgical instruments as wellas better implants, the risk of rupture is very low. rupture of an implant can occur, but it ismost likely to happen years later as the implant ages or if you have a major impact to thebreast during an accident or trauma. but what happens if the implant ruptures? will it cause harm? can you die? can you develop an immune disease? the answer to these questions is that evenwhen they rupture, silicone implants do not cause any harm in the body.

typically, the patient is not going to noticea decrease in the volume of the breast, because the highly cohesive implant allows the siliconeto stay within the boundaries of the capsule that has formed around the implant. so, patients who complain of rupture of abreast implant typically have some sort of pain or discomfort that was not there prior to the trauma or incident that caused the rupture. the pain feels like a soreness, or like thereis something not right with the breast. it is very challenging to identify it by justpalpating the breast, particularly if you have developed a capsular contracture secondaryto the extrusion of the silicone. one of the standard ways to determine if youhave a rupture of a silicone implant

is to perform an mri. an mri scanner is a sensitive machine thatis used to visualize the soft tissue of the body. so, what happens if your breast implant ruptures? well, for a start, you are going to need revisionsurgery. in other words, an incision will be made, and depending on the factors that have contributed to changes in your breast, a specific surgerywill be recommended to provide a better shape. if you believe you have a ruptured implant,discuss this with your plastic surgeon. a test like an mri will help confirm the ruptureof the implant, and subsequently a plan will be made to correct the breast after removalof the ruptured silicone implant.
