Recently, the term “breast implant disease” has become popular on social media to describe a series of symptoms that have been attributed to a patient’s breast implants. These symptoms include fatigue, chest pain, hair loss, headaches, chills, light sensitivity, rashes, and chronic pain, among others<\/strong>. While physicians seek to treat these physical symptoms, evidence currently supports the safety of silicone breast implants.<\/p>\n

This article presents an updated review focused on the safety of silicone breast implants. Patients retain the right to decide whether to keep or remove their breast implants and for those who choose removal, they should be advised to seek the care of a board-certified plastic surgeon.<\/p>\n

As a scientific community, it is our duty to continue to conduct well-designed scientific studies to obtain more information about the safety of breast implants in relation to cancer screening, autoimmune disease and other health concerns in order to improve patient safety, awareness and education.<\/p>\n
