How to Avoid Breast Implant Extrusion? What are the factors that contribute?

Dear Tina,

Breast implant extrusion is an extremely rare phenomenon, I have not witnessed it in any cosmetic patient. If you are newly post op, avoiding extraneous activity counseled by your surgeon is best, otherwise unless there in an infection component, incisions reach 80% strength at 2 months. 

Although breast implant extrusion is a risk of breast augmentation surgery, it is extremely rare;  much  less of a concern than other potential problems associated with breast implants. Risk factors include very little soft tissue coverage, use of a breast implant that “overwhelms” the overlying soft tissue coverage, infection  etc.

 Generally, careful selection of plastic surgeon is your best bet;  careful attention to detail when it comes to dissection, closure, choice of implant, avoidance of infection etc. all play a role.

 I hope this, and the attached link, helps.

You really have nothing to worry about. Only an infection will create a situation where the implant would spontaneously extrude. This is extremely rare.
