Is there a way to determine if the implants are slowly disintegrating?

Asked By:becur in Corsicana, TX

I had augmentation mammoplasty in January 1986 implanted with Dow Corning polyurethane coated (fuzzy) silicon gel implants. My breasts seem to be smaller than they were in the past. I only weighed about 100 lbs. when I had the surgery, I weigh approximately 125 lbs. now. I have been having routine mammograms for at least 15+ years so I have those records for a comparison if it would be of any help. Any advice?
