  Choosing the Wrong Implant
  Another potential risk is the choice of implants. Implants should be in accordance with the shape and size otherwise entire procedure becomes useless as the satisfactory results can’t be obtained. For example, saline implants may be a choice for some women. But they are likely to cause evident rippling beneath the skin and an unnatural feel of the breast.

  Some women make a mistake of choosing the wrong implant that is way too large for their body frames, often the surgeon fail to recommend the appropriates size. Picking an over-sized implant can cause irregularities in the breast and make them look awkward in future.

  Complicated Mammograms

  The presence of implants can make it more complicated to get the exact pictures of the mammogram. The implants cast shadows, which make it even harder to detect any sort of lumps or cancer. However with the current advancement in technology, one can have a mammography with no interference from the implant.

  If you get regular mammograms, it’s important to let your surgeon know that you have implants. So that he may take all the essential steps in order to ensure proper safety.
