Answer: Will silicone implants make my osteoarthritis worse? Rumours is the right word since there is absolutely no evidence to support the claims that breast implants cause inflammatory diseases. The weight of large implants could impact hip or knee osteoarthritis depending on how bad it already is. Book a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon near you to discuss your specific situation and see if breast implants are right for you. Hope that helps!

Answer: Will silicone implants make my osteoarthritis worse? Leaking silicone gel isn't thought to cause health problems, such as breast cancer, reproductive problems or rheumatoid arthritis. Still, a ruptured silicone breast implant might eventually cause breast pain, breast thickening, or changes in the contour or shape of the breast.Most data suggest that BIA-ALCL occurs more frequently following implantation of breast implants with textured surfaces rather than those with smooth surfaces.

Answer: Silicone implants Thank you for your question.There is not any evidence that silicone implants can increase the risk for arthritis or make it worse. Osteoarthritis is arthritis that is due to aging and damage to joints. This is a progressive disease than worsens over the years. Implant placement is not going to do anything to speed this process up for you.
