At age 63 I really didn't think I wanted to have my 25 year old implants replaced even though they had become hardened and did not look natural. Replacing them with the new and improved implants made a huge difference. My breasts are now soft and more natural looking. I have the confidence to show some cleavage again! Don't wait as long as I did to get an "upgrade"! So glad I did it!

25 Year old implant revision

Had major capsular contraction of 350 cc silicone implants which had ruptured. Replaced with new improved silicone 400 cc. Pocket had to be reconstructed due expanded silicone. Drain tubes were necessary due to the amount of reconstruction for 10 days. That was a real pain but I trusted Dr. Hendrick to know what was best - and he was right. There is a loss of sensation, especially around the nipple but the new breasts are soft and more natural.
