I am considering breast implants and scared of the possible health risks connected to gummy bear implants. Also, I am concerned about the expenses involved having MRIs done every two years in order to detect a silent rupture. I will greatly appreciate an honest feedback. Thank you!!!

Answer: Form Stable or "Gummy Bear" Implants are the safest silicone breast implants made In my practice, I exclusively use form stable or "gummy bear" implants. They are much safer than previous generations of implants that can leak out their contents if ruptured causing fibrosis and scar contracture. They also allow creating a nice anatomic shape that can develop a more beautiful breast shape. I only use anatomically shaped implants in the "Cold-Subfascial Plane" to deliver safe and beautifully natural appearing breasts. I hope this helps!All the best,Rian A. Maerkcs M.D.

Answer: Risks Silicone filled breast implants are one of the most studied medical devices we have on the market today. We believe they are completely safe and I wouldn't hesitate to use them in a family member. Although the FDA recommends that patients have MRIs every two years, I don't feel this is necessary and most patients do not do this.
