Asked By:SavingGrace60 in Las Vegas, Nevada

I’m in the process of getting my silicone breast implants removed. Both of them have ruptured o intracapsular and the other is a extrcapsular. I’m just going to have them removed and nothing else put in so my question is after I have them explanted should I have a certain test or tests to make sure that all the silicone has been removed?
