Asked By:Carmen000 in Saint Paul, MN

Hi, I'm getting a breast implant revision next month just to go a bit larger. Switching from saline to silicone. Anyways, my question is can I keep my old implants and take them home with me lol. They've been with me for 5 yrs and I kinda want to keep them as memorabilia. Am I the only one to ever ask this question ??
