Is it time to replace your breast implants? Daisy Brumby
You might be surprised to learn that breast implants are not a get-it-and-forget-it device. They need to be maintained and even replaced. Whether you already have implants for aesthetic or reconstructive reasons or are considering getting them, they need ongoing monitoring for leaks and typically need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years.
