What is a Breast Implant Rupture?
A breast implant rupture occurs when the outer shell of the implant tears or breaks. While this can sound alarming, ruptures are not uncommon and can be addressed with surgical intervention. Silicone and saline implants may respond differently to a rupture:
Silicone Implant Rupture
May not show immediate signs, sometimes called a “silent rupture.”
Saline Implant Rupture
Typically leads to a noticeable deflation as the saline is absorbed by the body.
