Some doctors don't give the complete truth about implants.

My first plastic surgeon did not give me the complete truth.

My second plastic surgeon did. She told me that you usually have to have implants replaced after about 6-10 years. Most implants will rupture or cause scar tissue, and the implants have to be replaced. She told me that I would probably have less nipple sensation. She told me the risks of each implant.

I do know if a doctors says the risks are minimal, than he is lying. If he says they are maintenance free, than he is lying.

I don't go around talking about implants, so I don't know of anyone else that has had them. I have to go by what I have read, and by what my 2nd doctor said.

I think that if women are aware of the real risks, and still want to have the surgery, then they should go for it. I certainly look better, and I have not had any problems with my second set of implants. I have saline implants now, and I like them much better than the silicone ones. I think they are much more realistic feeling (hubby agrees).

I hope you're having the proper tests done to ensure that you're ok..always know that the saline ones have silicone shell and do bleed..I don't have any idea how old you are, but please don't attribute any ache, pain, or whatever, to aging..please have the necessary tests and go to an implant dr who knows what's going on...
