Can toxic shock develop years after getting breast implants?

Asked By:sparklejumpropekween in Los Angeles, CA

I'm aware that very rarely patients can develop toxic shock in the days following a breast augment. Does the risk completely subside after that period? Is it possible months or even years down the line?
