Like so many other women, you too will have questions about the prostheses that were placed years ago. Many different types of implants used over the years.

BREAST PROSTHESIS CONTROL

We recommend that you have your breast prostheses checked on a regular basis and have them replaced if necessary.

Unfortunately, we cannot provide an unambiguous answer about the period within which breast prostheses should be replaced.

We currently recommend having breast implants older than 10 years old replaced.

Of course, there is a chance that your breast prostheses are intact after 10 years, but because the prostheses subject to wear and tear, it recommended to have the implants replaced.

The manufacturer of breast prostheses gives a 10-year warranty on the implants.

DIFFERENCES FROM YOUR FIRST BREAST AUGMENTATION

Replacing your breast implants may be slightly different from your initial breast augmentation:

INCISION

In principle, our plastic surgeon will take the place of your old scar to replace your breast prostheses.

IMPLANT POSITION

Also regarding the position of the implant, our surgeon prefers not to change anything. If you placed breast prostheses above the muscle for the first time, this will also be the case with your second procedure.

BREAST IMPLANT SIZE

If you have your breast prostheses replaced, it is easy to keep the same size.

Of course, you can choose to have larger prostheses placed during your second procedure. If larger prostheses used, you will again experience some inconvenience in the first days after your operation.

If you also need to have capsular contracture removed in addition to your prostheses, we recommend that you go for slightly larger prostheses. The hairstyle will have slightly enlarged the pocket created, so that extra space needs to be filled.
