Hi how common is it for breast implant rejection ? is this something to be very worried about ? To even not go through with the surgery ? Feeling very scared .?

Answer: Implant rejection Your body cannot "reject" an implant as it is not living tissue. Rejection is a reaction to something like a kidney transplant where your immune system attacks living tissue because that organ is not labeled with the markers that your body uses to identify you as you. With an implant you can experience an infection that could necessitate removal or you could experience capsular contracture which might call for more surgery. So there are potential problems but rejection is not one of them.

Answer: Implant rejection Your body will not "reject" an breast implant because it is not living tissue. There are complications that sometimes require an implant to be removed such as infection, but these complications are rare.
