Will OHIP cover needed explant surgery?

July 24, 2020

I have 15 year old gel breast implants. I noticed one was deformed, literally overnight. An ultrasound was ordered by my gp and the report stated probable rupture of implant.When I had a mammogram prior to this there was a spot they need to monitor.Went to see the original cosmetic surgeon and he measured the breast and said it wasn't ruptured, he was 80% sure it was capsular contracture.One pandemic and 6 months later it's causing great distress.I have a burning sensation in my nipple and more.
