Hello, I have wanted a breast augmentation for years but I'm concerned about developing symptoms of ASIA. From what I have read it's the silicone outer layer that could be causing it. Is there an alterative option to silicon? Are there any implants that are TGA approved? Thank you

Your surgeon, PCP or gynecologist can order an MRI but the main question is why you are wanting one. The physician who orders it will need to state the diagnosis, will receive the results and will be the one responsible for discussing them with you.
