I can't believe she still has the first pair in... Surely she'd want them replaced, I can't imagine the silicone used 50 years ago is quite upto recent standards Shocked X

I should imagine aesthetically they won't look very pretty anymore as they've sagged with age... ball in a sock springs to mind LOL.

And I also can't imagine they'd have withstood 50 years of wear when findings have told us that most of us with breast implants will need a re-op within ten years of being implanted.

There's no mention of her having the implants checked and confirmed they are intact. Maybe at her age she's not bothered anyway now and doesn't want to go through any further surgery so will just leave them be. xx

Yup, some do last a lifetime Story of first woman to get silicone implants. 1978086825

Ideally you should have a scan every 3 years to check for silent ruptures, but I don't suppose everyone would do that, but for me, I'll definately scan every 5 years.

The FDA confirmed that most of us will have to have our implants removed within 10 years of implantation. See HERE. So at the very least, you should scan your implants 10 years after implantation. xx

Does anyone know how to go about arranging a private scan? And cost?
I'd like to have mine checked. x

LOL. You could have an ultrasound, but ruptures have been known to get missed this way. An MRI would be the best way to detect ruptures Story of first woman to get silicone implants. 1978086825
