Silicone Breast Implant Scar - Removal in Orange County Ca

[megrudanj]

This is an idiotic reason for saline being "better" than silicon" both types of implants have a silicon shell anyway so what you have actually touching you is silicone no matter what the fill...The saline only makes a difference if the implant leaks, and modern day silicon implants are much more cohesive than they were 20 years, or course you should expect to see some bad stuff when removing a 20 years old implant, they ware a totally different type of implant back then.

@megrudanj It is not that simple.

That piano music is totally unnecessary.

[drdisaia]

@durgaaa The music needed to be made lower in volume. Sorry.

[drdisaia]

@durgaaa Agreed. I made videos this way a while ago.

the body creates a capsule when you pierce your ears or whatever too. thats the way the body reacts to having a foregin object in it. When you get a splinter of wood same thing happens. the problem is only when the capsule hardens and that is somewhat rare. with old silicone it was much more common, the new cohesive gel implants are safer but ofcourse not safe. Saline isnt safe either. Have you seen the water in the implant after 20 years. its full of mold.

[drdisaia]

The mold thing is a myth. I have taken out plenty of saline implants and never seen it. Otherwise you aren't too far off base.

[humlanknatte]

ofcourse not all saline implants. I guess that happens when the water isnt completely sterile perhaps?

My point was just that Saline implants have their flaws too. The new gel implants arent supposed to rupture either and they rarely do (compared to the old style silicone) But I know this girl who had 2 pairs after eachother rupturing within a year of implantation. The brand wasnt mentor or Mcghan but "eurosilicone" which is approved in the UK.

[drdisaia]

@humlanknatte Saline implants can rupture. My point is that they do not encourage the formation of rock hard calcified scar capsules. Frequent ruptures like you describe are pretty rare though.

dnguyen520 -

The capsule is the body's reaction to the gel. The shell is the container. The old shells disintegrated after 10-20 years. We do not know how the new generation shells will do with time but the gel seems to "seep" out of them into the tissues to a lesser extent.

We don't know how the tissues will react to less gel "bleeding" into them. Only time will tell this.

[dnguyen520]

This could be true but then the implants were from 20yrs ago. Could this be because the capsule of the implant 20 yrs ago were just bad?

[drdisaia]

@dnguyen520 Probably not because saline filled implants have the same type of shell and they do not form rocky capsules like the gel implants do. It is the gel.
