We take the time to understand your goals for surgery, help you know what to expect, and use the latest techniques to ensure you get the best possible results.
Implant Safety
Many patients ask about the safety of breast implants, especially silicone implants. There’s a common misconception that silicone implants are potentially harmful, but modern implants are far safer than those used decades ago.
In the past, some implants allowed silicone to leak. The implants we use today are designed so that, even if they rupture, the silicone remains intact within the shell.
Even with silicone implants that leaked decades ago, it’s important to know that they were never shown to be a source of autoimmune illnesses or cancer. That misinformation persists, but it’s simply untrue. The FDA approved silicone implants in 2006. Today, nearly all implants are silicone because they look and feel natural and have a long safety record.
