I want a BA but freakin out because I was referred to a site that showed proof of the implants with mold on them and many many illness linked to implants , however I have heard no scientific evidence to corroborate that . But the"Mold" could cause a problem for me . Someone please help me here . I've already had a consult and paid my down payment .

Answer: Mold in implants I am aware of concern over mold forming in implants, primarily saline implants. However I have never actually seen it even heard of a case where this actually happened. To me that means it is a very rare occurrence.

Answer: If the (gummy) silicon implant can get mold on it in the body can you get sick from it ? I have not seen an implant or implant pocket culture fungus, but it is possible. Fungal infections tend to be more common in immunocompromised patients, like those with diabetes or HIV. In general, infections are very rare. I have not gone back in to remove implants after about 1000 or so breast augmentations. So to go back in for a fungal infection in an immunocompetent individual would be even more rare. But, if you are considering SALINE implants, ask your surgeon whether he or she uses a closed technique to fill the implants.
