Leak? - Saturday, December 31, 2011 4:51 PM
I have had saline implants since 2003. Today I noticed that my left breast seems smaller than my right. Could my implant be leaking or am I freaking out over nothing?

If your breast appears to be smaller, it is possible that there is a leak in the implant.  I would recommend that you have this evaluated by a plastic surgeon.  Please let me know if you need help finding a plastic surgeon in your area.  I am happy to help.

My implant is definitely leaking. :( My left breast has continued to get smaller and is now about half the size of my right breast. I will call my plastic surgeon tomorrow.
