Will I be able to take advantage of my Allergen warranty if my surgeon threw away the ruptured implant?

Asked By:maria121110 in Portland, Oregon

I recently had my second lift and replaced my implant with smaller and put from over to under the muscle. I had a hardening at the top of my right breast and that’s what made me make the decision to go back in for this. It turned out to be a ruptured implant. My surgeon threw out the ruptured implant. My question now is I will not be able to get allergen to help with costs now?
