I am 40 and got my implants when i was 23 in Massachusetts by a Doc named wysocki, they are saline and tear drop. I am pretty sure my left one is leaking and getting smaller and its super soft, to soft . I am freaking about this. I now live in Young Harris Ga. Any advice?

Answer: Leaking implant Usually when a saline implant leaks, it loses most of the volume rapidly, and there is no question. Since you are not certain, just make an appointment to see a local Plastic Surgeon, and he should be able to tell you.Good luck,Greg Sexton, M.D.Columbia, S.C.

Answer: One implant may be leaking "Freaking out" won't help. You have no need to worry. Simply find a reputable board certified plastic surgeon in your area and if possible obtain the records of your implant surgery 23 years ago. Be comforted that replacing a ruptured saline implant is a very routine procedure. If one is ruptured I would suggest replacing both implants since they are over 20 years old. Good luck.
