Implants exchange
Mamma enlargements with different implants are already carried out for decades. Many women still have their first implants. One cannot say with a more exact certainty how long silicone implants hold. Some implants, such as the soya implants, were withdrawn from the market meanwhile since sufficient studies of the interactions didn't exist it with silicone envelopes.
The quality of the implants shows a positive development. The newer silicone implants must, as long as woman doesn't have any problems with these be not exchanged any more and be supposed to hold a life lasting. The older implants or which one, these to problems lead, must be exchanged. To state problems at full term, the patients should regularly go to their physician to the after-control after a mamma extension.
The older silicone implants should be exchanged after about 10 years to prevent a phasedown of the silicone.
A frequent problem is the capsule fibrosis. In this case thick connective tissue around the foreign body which contracts and shrinks develops. The capsule presses the implant together and also can move it. The patient also notices this process since the mamma is deformed increasingly. A capsule fibrosis is often connected to pains. To avoid this, the newer silicone envelopes are made with a rough surface.
Exchange is carried out the implants into general anesthesia. The old scars opened, the old implant remotely and the new one used. Depending on mamma results the new implants can be used to the old places or new put. The capsule also can in addition get reduced or remote.
In front of the operation should a thorough advice conversation take place with the surgeon, in which all questions and expectations of the patients be discussed. A serious physician informs the patients about possible risks and the limits of the medical treatment. One can state the definite result only after six months.
