I'm 56 and have no problems w my 16 year old 660 cc under muscle saline implants but I know they aren’t a lifetime product. Would I be smart to remove them before 60 and before I get too old and surgery is riskier? Also, I'm finding them too big now. Thank you.

Answer: I'm 56 years old, should I remove my breast implants before I'm too old? Breast implants do not need to be removed if there are no problems with your breasts or your breast implants. Age is not enough to disqualify you from breast implant removal/replacement. If you are a good candidate and otherwise healthy, you can have the implants removed/replaced in one surgery. If the implants are removed, there will likely be flattening and drooping that can be corrected in large part with a breast lift and new implants. As far as the volume that is attained, that is a bit difficult to predict given the time of 16 years that you have had large implants thinning the remaining tissue. Removal followed by a waiting period could also be considered. Find an expert at all aspects of breast surgery and set up an in office consultation.

Answer: More surgery As others have said, if there is no problem with the implants and you like your breast size and shape, then there is no reason to remove them.
