i saw his work on other women. this was in 1980. he was just a wonderful plastic surgeon. his partner was dr. bunkis he has retired. but never in 34 years have i had a problem, some harding around implant very small. some drs never even knew i had breast implants during breast exams. i would recommend breast implants any time. i have never regreted it once. but after 33 yrs. all i have noticed is this rash.

Here's what some doctors have to say about the life span of breast implants.

Hi there,

I'm pretty sure that 34 years exceeds the intended life span of most implants, so you might want to go to a surgeon and have them checked out. Please let us know what happens!
