Is eczema worse after silicone implants?

I have a history of nipple eczema after breastfeeding. Can anyone comment on how it may be impacted with silicone implants and an under breast incision? Thank you

I am not aware of any evidence that Eczema is worsened after receiving Silicone Gel Implants.
