Cough rupturing breast implants? 390cc on the L breast and 400cc on the R saline implants under the muscle

Thank you for your question. It is extremely unlikely that coughing could rupture your new Breast Implants. If you have continued questions or concerns, please contact your board-certified plastic surgeon's office. 

Implants are exceedingly safe and durable. The newest generation of devices have thicker shells and a more cohesive fill (in the case of silicone gels). We know that they are more durable than previous generations but it is not absolutely clear how that translates into the lifespan of the device. However, it's a safe assumption that they will be longer lasting under normal circumstances.It is highly unlikely that a device would fail (rupture) from the force of a cough. I have never heard of this occurring with prior generation  devices, making it even less likely with the current generation. Generally speaking most early failures can either be attributed to a manufacturing flaw or damage caused upon insertion. Implants will typically fail along ripple lines as these become weak over time. Newer gels are less prone to rippling and this is easily avoided in saline devices by avoiding underfill.Late failures can be blamed on device age/wear, however, as I mentioned above this generation of devices is almost certain to outlive its predecessors.As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon.

I do not believe a cough can rupture your breast implant. Coughing cannot generate the pressure to rupture a device like a breast implant . Warmest regards, Dr. ALDO
