Implant deflation can occur immediately or slowly over a period of days and is noticed by a loss of size or different shape of your breast. Silicone implant usually leak slower than saline implants and can sometimes go unnoticed for quite some time. Implants can deflate in the first few months, after several years, or at any time in between. If you think you have a deflation, please:
1. Call 911…..NO PLEASE DON’T. Please RELAX. Call your plastic surgeon and schedule an appointment, ideally within a week of the deflation. If you have Saline Implants, the leaking is salt water, which your body will absorb without any issue. There has been no known health risks associated with saline or silicone breast implants deflation.
2. Get your information ready for your doctor, just in case you go with someone new or it’s been a long time since you’ve had surgery. You should have the following information ready, if feasible:

One of the first things that most patients want to know, but are afraid to ask, “When can I have sex?” The answer is going to vary, depending on your procedure and your healing process. Just like exercise, sexual activities increases heart rate. This raises your blood pressure, causing your blood to flow more intensely, which can increase swelling and cause bleeding (Hematoma). Safe guidelines are:
Breast Augmentation: 2 weeks
Lipo: 2 weeks
Abdominoplasty ( Tummy Tuck ): 3 weeks
Labiaplasty: 2 weeks
Just like with any other surgical procedure, follow common sense and your post op instructions. Keep your incision site clean and covered. Do not expose them to bacteria that can be found in bodily fluids. Remember your body is still healing, so please be gentle with it.
