Breast Enlargement Implant Dangers

There are two types of implants: implants with silicone gel and implants filled with saline. The last one consists of salt water and it is considered to be safe for health because of its absorption by the body. But it has already been well-known about the possibility of breaking and leaking of breast implants. The results of one study demonstrated that 63.6% of women charring breast implants between one and 25 years leaked or ruptured. (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/33450.stm)
 
What may happen if silicone gel has leaked? There are several occurrences: nothing may feel if an implant shell with contracture scar around it breaks, but if the implant shell has no a contracture scar it may happen a leakage into the surrounding tissue causing a feeling of deflation of implant. If silicone gel in case of its leaking gathers in the breast, you may get a new scar around it. Sometimes silicone gel may walk into other areas of the body moving through the lymphatic system and causing disorder of connective tissue. In this case it will be difficult to remove all of the silicone gel even by means of operation.  

Here there is a list of dangerous points connected with operation or breaking/leaking of silicone gel and saline-filled implants: damage by surgical instruments during surgery, overfilling or underfilling of the implant with saline solution (specific only to saline-filled breast implants), capsular contracture and closed capsulotomy , stresses such as trauma or intense physical manipulation ,excessive compression during mammographic imaging, placement through umbilical incision , site injury to the breast, normal aging of the implant.
