I have a deflated saline breast implant 14 yrs old, can't financially fix it now. How long can I wait? Past the 10 yrs so surgical cost is not covered and need time to save. Here are my questions:Since it's been 14 years should I have the other replaced also?Considered that once I get past this hurdle it may happen to the other and cause additional cost - my next question what is the results if I have them completely removed? What will the end result be?
