Lifetime Of Breast Implants
Breast implants will eventually degrade and need to be replaced like any other product. However, they have a substantial life span. However, each material and type of breast implant changes how they need to be cared for and how long they last.
Saline Breast Implants
Saline breast implants are one of the most common and popular forms of breast implants. Saline breast implants can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years with proper care. However, a ruptured implant would likely need to be replaced far sooner. Saline ruptures are rare but become more likely the older the implant. The saline solution will naturally be absorbed into the body, and the implant will deflate.
Silicone Gel Implants
Silicone gel implants are another very common form of breast implant that is often used instead of saline. Silicone Gel Implants also last up to 20 years with proper care. Silicone implants can also rupture but will not deflate the same way saline implants do. Silicone implant ruptures are often gone unnoticed, and thus, some people prefer saline.
