++ Silicone was banned by the FDA, and after extensive research no connection between silicone leaks and any other kind of the 'late- stage' complications was proven. +++ Capsular contracture can be prevented if one keeps their check-up appointments BTW! Alot of these late-stage complications happen because people think that once their new boobs are implanted, they don't have to be careful anymore. In the beginning weekly check ups are crucial etc. Plus and implant is not a permantent pleasure, they need to be renewed every 10 years.... I just hope that everybody is told that before they get it done.
They say submuscular implants are better for this and for not interfering with mammograms, but there are other disadvantages (quadruples recovery time, as a matter of course).
(I'd rather look into MRI or ultrasound than get a mammogram, but you know I have a family history of breast cancer, so it is fortunate I'm happy with my minis)
