History of Silicone Breast Implant Regulation (Part 1) –

Most board certified plastic surgeons, like Detroit’s Dr. Ali, now prefer silicone breast implants for their patients because of their natural look and feel, and excellent safety record.

In this two part article Detroit area breast implant surgeon Dr. Ali discusses the regulations that have affected silicone breast implants over the years – ensuring patient safety.

Silicone Breast Implant Regulation: 1960s

Gel-filled silicone breast implants were introduced to the U.S. in 1962, and in common use by 1964.

This new technology was imperfect at first. In large part this was due to lack of study or regulation on this new technology.

But thanks to advancements in technology, rigorous scientific testing, and intensive regulation by the FDA, silicone breast implants are now very safe.

Silicone Breast Implant Regulation: 1970s

Before 1976 breast implants were not highly regulated. In 1976 the U.S. Congress passed the Medical Device Amendments to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Under this law, breast implants were considered “Class II” (moderate risk) medical devices – and as such they had to comply with general controls and performance standards.

At that time the FDA reviewed new breast implants through a process called the 510(k) Premarket Notification process, like any other Class II products.

Silicone Breast Implant Regulation: 1980s

In the early 1980s, the FDA began to identify certain local complications and adverse outcomes of these older silicone breast implants. Some reports even described cancer and connective tissue disease in a small number of women with breast implants.

As concerns arose about the safety of silicone breast implants rose, the FDA reclassified breast implant into “Class III” (higher-risk), which requires premarket approval. Breast implant manufacturers now had to provide data demonstrating the breast implants were safe and effective BEFORE they could be sold.

Silicone Breast Implant Regulation: 1990s

In 1992, the FDA still had concerns that the breast implant manufacturers were not adequately addressing public concerns about certain complications. At that time a higher incidence of implant rupture and silicone leakage was being seen.

So, the FDA removed all silicone breast implants from sale in the US, and required all manufacturers to submit premarket approval applications that contained detailed data on safety and effectiveness.

However, in the meantime, the FDA did allow manufacturers to provide silicone breast implants for reconstruction after mastectomy, correction of congenital deformities, or replacement of existing implants. So, the manufacturers enrolled women who received silicone breast implants for medical (not cosmetic) purposes in performance and safety studies.

Then in 1999, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) released a detailed report compiling the results of all of these published and ongoing studies on breast implants, called Safety of Silicone Breast Implants.

This report concluded that there was no evidence that silicone breast implants caused systemic health effects such as cancer or autoimmune disease. And while it did identify rare local complications (which included rupture, pain, capsular contracture, disfigurement, infection, and repeat surgeries) silicone breast implants were now recognized as generally safe.

Silicone Breast Implant Regulation: 2000s

After years of studies and technological improvements, the FDA approved silicone gel-filled breast implants in November 2006.

As with any surgery, there is always a small number of possible local complications and adverse outcomes. However, the FDA concluded that the benefits and risks of breast implants were sufficiently well understood for women to make informed decisions about their use.

Initially, in 2006, the FDA only approved Mentor’s MemoryGel Silicone Gel-Filled Breast Implants and Allergan’s∗ Natrelle Silicone Gel-Filled Breast Implants – followed six years later by Sientra’s Silicone Gel Breast Implants.

Silicone Breast Implant Regulation: 2010s

Advanced technologies in breast implant look, feel and safety continued to be developed. And in 2013 Mentor’s MemoryShape and Allergan Natrelle 410 Highly Cohesive Breast Implants were approved.

Today these five breast implants remain the only 5 breast implants that are FDA approved for use in the US.

Caring for Your Breast Implants (Part 1) –

As with any part of your body, proper care and health monitoring of your breast implants is important to ensure they remain healthy.

Dr. Ali is Detroit area board certified plastic surgeon who has performed breast implant surgery on thousands of women in Birmingham, Troy, Rochester Hills, West Bloomfield, and across Southeast Michigan. In this two part article he offers suggestions for the care and protection

Protecting Your Breast Implants

After you have healed from breast implant surgery, normal activity, exercise and sexual intimacy is not only recommended, but encouraged, as part of a healthy lifestyle!

You will want to guard your implants against any kind of intense or repetitious pressure on your breasts. While you should be able to engage in normal physical activities such as sports or exercise, you will need to avoid any kind of situation that could result in any kind of trauma to your breast. Detroit Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Ali will gladly advise you of any activites he believes you should avoid following your breast implant surgery.

Following breast implant surgery, make sure to let all healthcare practitioners (doctors, mammogram technicians, massage therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, physical therapists, nursis, etc.) treating you know that you have undergone silicone gel breast implant surgery.

Failure to do so could result in accidental damage or rupturing of your breast implants. All Detroit area patients who undergo breast implant surgery should carry their Device Identification Card with them at all times to show to healthcare practitioners prior to proceeding with treatment.

When to Suspect a Breast Implant Problem

If you experience any of the following symptoms after breast implant surgery, contact Detroit Board Certified Plastic Surgeon immediately:

  • Signs of infection
  • A lump ion the breast
  • Nipple dimpling, drawn in, sunken or inversion
  • Nipple discharge
  • Change in the position of your breast implant
  • Change in the shape of your breast implant
  • Any injury to your breast(s)
  • Sudden change in size or shape of your breast(s)
  • Sudden asymmetry in your breasts(s)

While damage to breast implants is a rare occurrence, if your breast implant becomes ruptured it will have to be removed. In Part 2 of this article, Detroit area board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ali explains how to monitor and detect breast implant rupture.

Caring for Your Breast Implants (Part 2) –

While damage to breast implants is a rare occurrence, if your breast implant becomes ruptured it will have to be removed. In part 2 of this article Oakland County board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ali explains how to monitor and detect breast implant rupture.

Monitoring Your Breast Implants for Rupture

There are numerous factors that can result in your breast implants developing a hole or tear in their shell. For the most part, these holes are referred to by breast implant surgeons as ruptures because they allow for silicone gel from inside the implant to secrete out of the implant.

If one or both of your implants rupture, you may find yourself experiencing a variety of symptoms. Talk to Detroit Board Certified Breast Implant Surgeon if you experience any of the following symptoms, as they may be a result of your implant(s) having ruptured: changes in breast size or shape, tingling, pain, numbness, swelling, hardness of the breast, or if you notice lumps or hard knots surrounding the implant or in the armpit.

It is possible, however, that you may experience an implant rupture without experiencing any symptoms at all. In such cases (what are known as “silent ruptures,”) it can be more difficult to determine if you have experienced a rupture. Talk to Detroit Board Certified Breast Implant Surgeon Dr. Ali if you notice anything that feels out of place about your breast implants.

Detroit Board Certified Breast Implant Surgeon Dr. Ali will most likely prescribe an MRI examination to determine if a silent rupture has occurred. As MRI’s are the best identifier of silent ruptures, it is strongly recommended that you arrange for an MRI with your breast implant surgeon in the third year following your surgery, then once more every two years for as long as you have your breast implants.

It is the opinion of Detroit Board Certified Breast Implant Surgeon that patients with both saline filled and silicone gel-filled breast implants should arrange for routine mammography for breast cancer screening, based on age and risk factors.

What to do if you Suspect Breast Implant Rupture

If you believe that the silicone gel has moved out of your breast implant or that your implant has ruptured, call Detroit Board Certified Breast Implant Surgeon Dr. Ali right away to schedule an exam. The best way to diagnose a rupture is through an MRI.

If Detroit Board Certified Breast Implant Surgeon Dr. Ali confirms that your implant has leaked or ruptured, he will consult you on all of your options, which may involve the removal and replacement of your breast implant, depending on your medical needs.

What to Expect with General Anesthesia in Breast Augmentation Surgery (Pt 2)

In this two part article, double board certified Breast Augmentation surgeon Doctor Ali explains general anesthesia – to help you understand the anesthesia process and reduce your concerns.

Click Here for Part One of General Anesthetic in Breast Augmentation Surgery

Board certified Breast Augmentation Surgeon Doctor Ali will decide which type of anesthesia is right for you, based on your current and past health, relevant test results, and the type of Breast Augmentation surgery being performed. He will discuss all of this with you during your consultation. It is our goal to answer every one of our patients’ questions to ensure that all of our patients are well-informed and worry-free on the day of their Breast Augmentation surgery.

The Day of Breast Augmentation Surgery

You will meet your anesthesiologist on the day of your Breast Augmentation surgery. He or she will constantly monitor your vital signs (heart rate, breathing, blood pressure) before, during, and after the surgery – and will also continuously adjust the levels of anesthesia you’re given. If there are any issues related to anesthetic during the Breast Augmentation surgery, they will correct them by giving additional fluids or medications.

Your anesthesia medications may be given intravenously (IV) or inhaled through a mask or both.

You will be free of pain, consciousness, movement, and memory during the time you’re under general anesthesia. Many people describe their experience as a “time warp,” where they aren’t sure how much time has passed when they wake up after surgery.

How quickly you wake up afterward depends on multiple factors: the type of anesthetics and other medications used, how you responded to them, and what amounts were given.

After your Breast Augmentation surgery, you will go to a recovery room where you’ll continue to be monitored. Your vital signs and bandages will be checked, and you’ll be asked how you’re feeling. If you experience any pain, be sure to tell your medical team so they can help you.

Side Effects of General Anesthesia After Breast Augmentation Surgery

There may be some side effects of anesthesia. These are temporary, but can last for several hours after surgery.

Some common effects of General Anesthesia after Breast Augmentation Surgery are:

  • Weakness or changes in muscle control
  • Altered coordination
  • Nausea and/or vomiting
  • Dry mouth
  • Sore throat/mild hoarseness
  • Sleepiness
  • Feeling cold and/or shivering

Depending on what type of procedure(s) you had done, you will either be able to go home the same day or will stay in a hospital to continue your recovery. If you need to stay, Doctor Ali and your nurse will visit you to see how you’re doing and whether you have any more questions.

If you still have questions about what general anesthesia during Breast Augmentation Surgery entails, please talk about it during your consultation with award-winning Detroit area plastic surgeon Dr. Ali. He has safely performed Breast Augmentation Surgery on hundreds of patients using General Anesthetic, and it is his goal to ensure that you are 100% comfortable and worry-free.

Pregnancy, Breast Feeding and Breast Implants

/in , , /by

Pregnancy, Breast Feeding and Breast Implants –

Detroit area board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ali has performed thousands of breast implant surgeries on women before and after pregnancy. Many women wonder the effect of breast implants, if any, on pregnancy and breastfeeding. about In this article Doctor Ali answers your questions about breast implants and pregnancy or breastfeeding.

No Breast Implants for Women who are Pregnant or Nursing

While it seems like “common sense” it is important to note that breast implant surgery should not be performed on a woman who is pregnant or nursing. However, women may get breast augmentation surgery before or after becoming pregnant and/or nursing.

Always ensure you are not pregnant before undergoing breast implants, taking a pregnancy test if there is any doubt or possibility that you may be carrying a child.

Breast Implants Before Becoming Pregnant

Some patients have asked us if having silicone gel breast implants could harm babies whose mothers became pregnant after getting breast augmentation.

We understand that nothing is more important to you than the health of your children! There is no evidence to shows that silicone breast implants have any harmful effects on children born to women with implants.

Two clinical studies in humans have found that there is NO increase in the risk of birth defects in children conceived and born after a women has had breast implant surgery.

Breast Implants Effect on Breast Feeding

In some women, there is a very small possibility that breast implant surgery might interfere with the ability to breastfeed. A very small percentage of women who have had breast augmentation surgery produce less milk, or are note able to produce milk at all. Some women with breast implants have also reported that breastfeeding is somewhat more painful after having breast implants.

In a study conducted on MemoryShape™ Breast Implants (the type of implant Dr. Ali uses), only four of the 44 breast augmentation patients who attempted to breast feed following breast implant surgery experienced difficulty. This means that 91% of the women in the study who attempted to breast feed after receiving breast implants had no difficulty.

The type of surgical technique used seems to have some effect on the likelihood of breastfeeding difficulties. For example, peri-areolar surgical approach (in which the surgeon uses an incision around the areola/nipple) has a slightly higher incidence of breastfeeding difficulties than other techniques.

Studies have also measured silicon levels in breast milk. Those studies did not indicate higher levels of silicon in breast milk from women with silicone gel breast implants when compared to women who did not have implants.

In fact, The Institute of Medicine (IOM) and The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) both have issued statements encouraging women with breast implants to breastfeed, stating that “Breastfeeding should be encouraged in all mothers when possible, including those with silicone breast implants.”

Decision Checklist for Getting Breast Implants

/in , , /by

Breast Implants: Decision Checklist – 

The surgical procedure for breast implants consists of choices you and your plastic surgeon need to make to ensure the best possible outcome and the highest degree of satisfaction with your new breasts.

In this article, Detroit area board certified plastic surgeon Doctor Ali has put together a “checklist” of the decisions you will need to make when deciding upon breast implantsurgery.

☐ Plastic Surgeon

Your surgical team – including your plastic surgeon, nurses, and anesthetist – is the most important decision you need to make.

Make sure to inquire about the number of breast implant surgeries your plastic surgeon has performed, as well as whether he or she is board certified.

Detroit area plastic surgeon Doctor Ali is double board certified, and has performed thousands of breast implants. In addition to being voted one of Hour Detroit’s “Top Docs” – many doctors seek out Doctor Ali when they need plastic surgery for themselves and their families.

☐ Type of Breast Implant

Silicone breast implants are filled with silicone gel, which feels remarkably like natural breast tissue. Saline breast implants are filled with sterile salt water. While they do provide a uniform shape, firmness and feel, they are less popular than silicone implants because they do not feel as “natural”.

☐ Size and Shape of Implant

In addition to the size that will look best on your body and achieve your appearance goals, the profile, or projection (height of the top of the breast implant from your chest) must be chosen.

Learn more about choosing your breast implant size HERE.

Learn more about choosing your breast implant shape HERE.

☐ The location of the incisions

The location of the incisions made to insert the breast implants result in different recovery times, as well as varying amounts of scarring.  There are 3 standard types of breast implant incisions:

1: Transaxillary Breast Implant Incision, in which an incision is made through a canal placed in the natural fold of the armpit tissue;

2: Periareolar Breast Implant Incision, which involves making the incision around the circumference of the areola (the pink or brown skin around the nipple);

3: Inframammary Breast Implant Incision, made underneath the breast, in the fold where the breast and skin attach. – is not recommended for silicone gel implants such as MemoryShape.

Read More About Breast Implant Incisions HERE 

☐ Where the implants will be placed in your breasts

Breast implants may be placed either:

1:  Subglandular – putting the breast implant directly behind the mammary gland, but in front of the muscle; or

2: Submuscular – breast implant is positioned completely behind the chest muscle wall.

Submuscular vs Subglandular Breast Implants

/in , , /by

Pros and Cons of Submuscular vs Subglandular Breast Implants – 

In addition to choosing the size, shape, material, size and “projection” of your breast implants – the placement of your implant must be considered. Breast implants can be placed over or under (or in some cases between) the muscles in your chest.

Subglandular breast implants put the breast implant directly behind the mammary gland, but in front of the muscle.  Submuscular breast implants are positioned completely behind the chest muscle wall.

Choosing the right breast implant placement is an important decision made by you and your breast augmentation surgeon. Many factors come into play in making this decision, including: the type of implant; the increase in size; the amount of available breast tissue; your skin and muscle tone; your size; lifestyle; and your appearance goals.

Detroit are plastic surgeon Dr. Ali has helped thousands of women achieve the look and feel they desire with perfectly chosen and expertly “placed” breast implants. In this article we explain the pros and cons of Submuscular vs Subglandular breast implant placement.

Caring for Your Breast Implants

/in , , /by

Breast Implants: Mammograms & Long Term Care – 

Just as there are some things you should do to make sure your breasts stay healthy, there are also steps you should follow to care of your breast implants over time. Mammograms, breast exams, protecting your implants from certain types of damage, and regularly monitoring for breast implants for rupture are all very important.

Mammograms and Breast Implants

Whether or not a woman has breast implants, having a mammogram is the best way to detect breast cancer. However, there are some unique mammogram considerations for women with breast implants.

Breast implants can make it harder for the technician to perform a mammogram. Breast implants can also make it harder to identify breast cancer on a mammogram.

As every woman knows, the mammogram machine squeezes the breast to make it flat while taking a picture. The pressure from this squeezing could make your implant rupture or cause gel bleed.

Be sure to tell the mammogram technologist that you have breast implants before the procedure, so she can use special techniques to get the best possible views of your breast tissue, taking steps to ensure that your breast implants will not rupture due to the mammogram. Show your Device Identification Card (that you will receive after surgery) to the mammography technician.

Breast surgeons recommend having a mammogram before your breast implant surgery to establish a “baseline” for comparison in the future. Then women are encouraged to have another mammogram 6 months to 1 year after your implant surgery to establish another ”baseline” with the breast implant present.

After that women with breast implants should have a mammogram every 1 to 2 years, or as advised by their doctor, just as women without breast implants should do.

Other Breast Exams with Breast Implants

You should also perform self-breast exams once a month. After your period ends, is a good time to examine your breasts. Your doctor can show you how to do a self-breast exam, and teach you to tell the difference between your breast implant and breast tissue. If you see or feel that something has changed, talk to your doctor promptly.

It can sometimes be hard for you to feel changes in your breast when the implant is there, so it is important to have regular breast exams by a doctor, as well.

Preventing Breast Implant Rupture

Breast implant are quite durable, and are built to handle day to day bumps, hugs, and other everyday activities. Most surgeons indicate that you can even continue to participate in sports without restrictions. So it is not necessary to be overly concerned about rupture. However, physical trauma (e.g. an auto accident or fall), excessive repetitive wear and tear, can lead to a rupture in some cases.

A medical condition called capsular contracture can also cause rupture in a very small percentage of breast implants. Massaging your breasts regularly can help keep the surrounding soft and malleable, and prevent capsular contracture. Always alert your plastic surgeon if you notice the formation of any hardened scar tissue so that he can intervene before a rupture occurs.

If you or your doctor suspect a rupture or “gel bleed” of your breast implants, an MRI should be taken as soon as possible. An MRI is the best way to detect breast implant ruptures or leaks.
