Answer: Could my saline implants be causing my headaches, fatigue, depression and mood swings? Implants that have been in for a long time are not the likely source for all of these manifestations. However, the implants can always be removed if other sources are ruled out. Kenneth Hughes, MD, ABPS Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Los Angeles, CA
