Breast implants are durable, but they aren't permanent lifetime medical devices.
Over time, the risk of a silent tear or standard implant leak increases, especially if your implants are more than 10 to 15 years old.
Recognizing the Signs of a Leak:
-Saline Implants: Typically deflate quickly, causing a noticeable change in size and shape almost overnight.
-Silicone Implants: Often experience "silent ruptures," where the gel stays inside the surrounding scar tissue, changing only the feel or texture of the breast.
If your implants are reaching their maintenance timeline or you suspect a leak, Dr. Stewart Wang can safely remove and upgrade them to advanced, cohesive options or adjust your pocket to restore a safe, youthful shape.
