I wanted to know if anyone has had silicone after 2006 when the FDA approved them for use? I am curious if anyone has new implants and had problems shortly after. I had read that some people with other implants, nose, knees,etc. had problems a few months later. It seems that all the people that reply are people who had them years ago. Now days they say that the silicone won't run out and the platnum level is so low and the implant is three layers thick so you really don't have to worry about gel bleed or it migrating to any part of the body. If these "new" implants are still bad for your health than I would rather not do the surgery. It is just hard to decide because I am hearing what the people with the "old implants" are saying and I hear what people are saying about how great the "new" implants are. I have a allergic reation to something on my hands. Happens mostly in winter. I have to put a steroid cream on it to go away. It doesn't get bad really because I catch it right away. I don't know what I am allergic to. I had a skin biopsy to make sure it wasn't cancer and it was confirmed a reaction. Now if I had implants I probably would have blamed it on them. I think a doctor told me once that I have allergy cells in my blood. So I bet this isn't a good thing for someone considering implants to have.
