Can any silicone from the shell of a saline implant get into the tissues?

0

Anything that is inserted into the body will degrade or break down to some degree over time. If a biopsy was performed on the scar tissue around a saline implant, chances are that a microscopic amount of silicone would be found. There is no evidence to show that this causes any significant medical problems.
