Confirmation Signs, Symptoms & Indicators of Silicone Breast Implant Problems - Gross Photos Caution
The top left photo shows an implant removed with the capsule still around it. The top right photo is similar, with a portion of the implant protruding out of the capsule. The bottom left photo shows how the capsule looks almost like a "pocket" formed by the body to contain the implant. The bottom right photo shows another capsule that has been removed.
NOTE: The capsule is the living tissue lining that normally forms around every breast implant. In some women, for reasons that are incompletely understood, the capsule has a tendency to shrink, which we refer to as capsular contracture. The more it shrinks the more it compresses the implant, making the breast feel hard. The implant itself does not get hard no matter how firm the breast may feel -- it is the way that the implant interacts with the body that causes capsular contracture. Capsular contracture does not cause implants to rupture because pressure is being evenly exerted on all sides of the implant. Under these conditions the implant will take the shape which has the least surface area, a round sphere, like a ball or globe. Not all capsules look as thick as the ones in these photos; some are as thin and filmy as gossamer. It is because of the fact that these capsules were thick that allowed these representative photos to be taken. I am not crediting this plastic surgeon because he promotes replacing implants even after photos like this!
More and more information is now coming out, I am receiving a greater increase in emails from women who are realizing they have been suffering from Silicone Poisoning from both Silicone and Saline Implants. I suggest you print this out and take it to your treating physician or to your plastic surgeon if you are seeking explantation.

GLOSSARY
Arthralgia
Severe throbbing or stabbing pain along a nerve in one or more joints.
Collagen
The primary protein within white fibers of connective tissue and the organic substance found in tendons, ligaments, cartilage, skin, teeth and bone.
Contracture (Contractures)
An abnormal, often permanent shortening, as of muscle or scar tissue, that results in distortion or deformity, especially of a joint of the body.
Dermatitis
A general term used to refer to eruptions or rashes on the skin.
Immune System (Immune Response, Immunity)
A complex that protects the body from disease organisms and other foreign bodies. The system includes the humoral immune response and the cell-mediated response. The immune system also protects the body from invasion by making local barriers and inflammation. The process may involve acquired immunity (the ability to learn and remember a specific infectious agent), or innate immunity (the genetically programmed system of responses that attack, digest, remove, and initiate inflammation and tissue healing).
Myalgia
Diffuse muscle pain.
Paresthesia
A skin sensation, such as burning, prickling, itching, or tingling, with no apparent physical cause.
Protein (Proteins)
Compounds composed of hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen present in the body and in foods that form complex combinations of amino acids. Protein is essential for life and is used for growth and repair. Foods that supply the body with protein include animal products, grains, legumes, and vegetables. Proteins from animal sources contain the essential amino acids. Proteins are changed to amino acids in the body.
Raynaud's Phenomenon (Raynaud's, Raynauds Disease, Raynaud's Disease, Raynauds Phenomenon, Raynauds Syndrome, Raynaud's Syndrome)
Raynaud's disease or syndrome is a disorder of blood circulation, mainly in the fingers and toes. It is of unknown cause and characterized by changes of the skin that are aggravated by exposure to cold: first, becoming white with numbness and pain as a result of inadequate oxygenation of the blood, then red/purple with a burning sensation. The sudden constriction of blood vessels causes decreased blood flow to the extremities and can, in extreme cases, lead to gangrene. Also called "white finger", "wax finger" or "dead finger".
Short-Term Memory (Short Term Memory)
Also known as immediate memory or working memory, this is a phase of memory in which a limited amount of information may be held for several seconds to minutes. In general, up to 7 'chunks' of information are stored for about 20 seconds.
Syndrome
A medical condition characterized by a collection of related symptoms (what the patient feels) and signs (what a doctor can observe or measure).
