Breast Procedure

Pre Operative Question Answer

Can a saline implant deflation cause an allergic reaction?

I want to assure you that while saline implant deflation can cause discomfort and changes in breast appearance, it is highly unlikely to trigger an allergic reaction. Saline implants are composed of a sterile saltwater solution, which is biocompatible and widely used in medical procedures. Allergic reactions typically occur in response to substances such as certain medications, foods, or environmental triggers, rather than saline. However, it’s important to discuss any specific allergies or sensitivities you have with your plastic surgeon during your consultation, as they will consider your medical history to ensure the best possible outcome for your procedure.
