Breast implants causing hair loss?

June 2, 2016
Asked By:mlyn726 in Memphis, TN

I've had saline implants for about 8 yrs. for the last year my scalp has been burning and my hair has been thinning. I'm wondering if I should consider the possibility or hair loss being related to my implants and some type of toxicity reaction? How could I find out?
