Were my Breast Implants Slowly Killing Me? Destin, FL
ORIGINAL POST
** Each and every one of them will have to be...
WORTH IT$3,900
** Each and every one of them will have to be replaced one day. **
Having talked me up from a breast lift to a breast lift With implants, In November of 2002, Dr. Gregory Roche implanted McGhan (Inamed Aesthetics) breast implants. I am a fairly larger framed woman and already sported a 40D bra. 500+CC implants took me from that to a 40DD. Even at my size they were obnoxious! They were large and heavy and soon you couldn't tell I had had a mastopexy. I was not happy with any of the work he had done that day but was too ashamed of my vanity to speak up.
In 2012 I noticed major changes in the shape of my implants and started to generally not feel well. Auto immune diseases started (Hashimoto's, Vitiligo) and my lymph nodes were swollen. In July of 2015, I finally had the funds to take care of these little monsters. (The cost for the removal alone was $3,900. I also had Mastopexy and standard lipo on the chest wall.) I was so tired of being sick and tired!
It's been 6 months and although i haven't noticed a remarkable change in my health, I have my fingers crossed! I hope that my vanity and ignorance of having to have breast implants will one day not be the cause of my death.
If you are considering breast implants, please remember that they are only temporary and WILL have to be replaced eventually. Sure, you may have the funds right now but do you know where you will be in 10 years?
Please also see the FDA studies. "Breast implants are not lifetime devices. The longer a woman has implants, the more likely it is that she will need to have surgery to remove them. The most frequent complications and adverse outcomes experienced by breast implant patients include capsular contracture, reoperation, and implant removal (with or without replacement). Other common complications include implant rupture with deflation, wrinkling, asymmetry, scarring, pain, and infection. In addition, women with breast implants may have a very low but increased likelihood of being diagnosed with anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL).
There is no apparent association between saline-filled breast implants and connective tissue disease, breast cancer, or reproductive problems. However, in order to rule out these and other rare complications, studies would need to be much larger and longer than those conducted so far."
