If the (gummy) silicon implant can get mold on it in the body can you get sick from it ?

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 .
