I want to know if I do get implants will I need to get them redone after so many years? How long can I exspect them to "last" I am a 36A? some of my bras say 32B or 34B The point is they are small and I want to go big like a big B or C. IDK I want to go big but I want to go as big as I can without them looking fake!! I want them to look natural.

Answer: Small implants do very well long term No one can tell you that your implant will last forever. But, I have patients who still have their original silicone implants from the 80's and they look fine! And, they aren't having problems with their mammograms. A modest-sized implant, under the muscle does great. I also prefer silicone because it's like a run-flat tire. It will never deflate. Go get a few consultations with ASAPS member surgeons in your area and see what they recommend for you. Good luck!

Answer: Longevity of Breast Implants All breast implants will eventually fail and need to be replaced over a patient's lifetime. It is not a question of if but when. How long they will last for any patient is not predictable.
