I had a bad fall recently and my saline implant ruptured about the same time. can a saline implant burst from falling heavily?
Answer: Saline Implants Bursting from injury
Any severe trauma like falling directly on your implant with your full weight is capable of rupturing you implant. On the other hand the implants are quite sturdy and in most cases would probably withstand this force.

Answer: Rupture of Implants
Implants do well with normal activities. However, if you are in an accident where you have trauma to your chest such as a bad fall or the steering wheel hitting your chest in a car accident, etc then you may have created enough force to rupture the implant. Exchanging the implants after rupture is a must less involved procedure than your original operation. Good luck.

Answer: Breast Implant Rupture After a Fall
The most common reason implants fail is from capsular contracture, which causes folds or wrinkles in the implant. These folds rub together and weaken the impant, and it can eventually leak or deflate. Thos accounts for over 95% of patients I see who have had rupture.
When I staffed a major trauma center, I saw many patients with breast implants who suffered chest trauma from airbag deployment or seatbelt injuries after car wrecks, and their implants were almost always OK. I also have placed implants in individuals who are very active in sports, where falls, diving saves of a volleyball, etc are common. So far no ruptures !
Trauma in your case probably contributed to implant rupture, but my experience leads me to believe that the implants are pretty durable.

Answer: Implant ruptures
Daily acitivity should not cause a rupture of your implants, but I suppose a bad fall or accident putting a significant impact on your implants may cause them to rupture.
