My surgeon doesn't want to do lift implant when he changes the ruptured implant because I told him that I am considering get pregnant in a couple years. Now the question is how long can I be with the ruptured implant cuz I am thinking that may be would be good if I wait to removed the implant until I have a baby

Answer: Ruptured breast implant: How long can I be with it? Thank you for your question. If the implant is ruptured, then it would be advised to take it out and have it replaced. As to whether you heed that advice or not, that is up to you. If it is saline, it poses very little threat and you could choose to leave it in place. Discuss your options in detail with your PS.Good luck!

Answer: Ruptured breast implant: How long can I be with it? Assuming that you have saline implants, then you can leave the implant ruptured for as long as you would like. You could consider exchanging your implant now or waiting until you finish childbearing to have additional surgery. A third option would be to rupture your other side to improve your symmetry and then undergo a revision surgery when you have finished having children.
