I had a saline breast implants 16 years ago. Since then, I have had two kids and my breast really sag. I am happy with the way they current look. I occasionally get discomfort on both breast but they both look even and they have not deflated. Should I get new implants before they deflate? Or should I wait? I was told to replace them after 10 years. What's your advice?

Answer: I had a saline breast implants 16 years ago. Should I get new implants before they deflate? Or should I wait? Usually, unless there's a medical problem or aesthetic problem- as deflation for example-- which according to you --you do not have-- there's no need to exchnage the implants. But generally speaking, if you feel that your breasts sag and you're unhappy with they way they look--- you might be a candidate for a lift with a possible augmention with silicone implants. Seek an experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for in person consultation.

Answer: When to Replace Saline Implants Two choices: if they don't bother you and you like the appearance there is no problem in waiting until one ruptures as the saline will simply be absorbed.On the other hand it is more than likely that one will rupture soon and you may want to plan the replacement electively that fits the best time in your schedule. Both reasonable choices.
