My breast implants are 24 years old. I know they are saline but that is all I can remember about the procedure. My left breast has deflated or ruptured. Anyway, it is half the size of the other. I want them out of my body. How long can I go before getting them removed without complication? Does every plastic surgeon do this kind of removal?

Answer: Illness after ruptured implant It is very unlike that you sayImplants will make you sick if they ruptured. The saline will be soaked up by your body and removed. I would recommend getting these implants out within the next month or two.

Answer: Can Saline Implant Rupture Make You Sick Saline implant rupture rates increase with implant age. I have seen some that lasted 30 years. When saline implants leak, your breast volume will diminish, but there is no health risk associated with leakage. Some women do feel the implant rubbing against their tissue, but the saline is just absorbed by your tissues and your breast goes flat. If you are not having other problems with them, you don't have to change them until they leak.
