Urban Legend

Just a quick note in regard to a vicious rumor that has been spread as truth by lay and medical people alike. There is the mistaken perception that breast implants have to be exchanged after 10 years. Nothing can be further from the truth. If there is nothing wrong with the implants they never have to be touched. 80% of patients never need more surgery after their first procedure. This is one urban legend that serves no worthwhile purpose.
