Can I prevent saline implant deflations?

While it’s not possible to completely prevent saline implant deflations, there are measures you can take to minimize the risk. Firstly, choosing a reputable and experienced surgeon is crucial as their expertise can greatly reduce the chances of complications. Secondly, following post-operative care instructions meticulously, such as avoiding trauma or excessive pressure on the implants, can help maintain their integrity. Regular check-ups with your surgeon are also important, as they can detect any early signs of deflation and address them promptly. Lastly, considering silicone implants as an alternative may be worth discussing with your surgeon, as they tend to have a lower deflation rate compared to saline implants.
