At Northwood Hospital, our specialist surgeons will discuss and guide you through the best possible procedures that address your specific breast condition.

Concerns about Old Breast Implants

If you have had breast implant surgery in the past and have noticed a fairly quick, but painless increase in the size of your breast, or breasts over a few weeks then it is important to get this checked out. Most cases have happened years after surgery. If possible you should ask the surgeon that put the implants in for advice. You will also need to speak to your GP who may need to refer you to your local NHS breast care service.

If you are considering having breast implants it is important that you know about the risks. Your surgeon should talk to you about the benefits and risks as part of a shared decision making process. You should also be given written information about breast implant surgery and its complications before you make a decision to proceed with surgery.

The current estimated incidence of BIA-ALCL based on confirmed cases where surgery occurred in the UK is 1 per 14,200 implants sold.
