It was an honor to be asked by my colleagues to write the foreward to their textbook on pre pectoral breast reconstruction📝.

Writing has always been a part of my life✍🏻:

A reflection of a love of reading and books 📚 early on... then as a college and grad student studying modern poetry and English literature ... and now as an academic engaged in scientific discourse🩺.

I think in this age of blurringly fast back-and-forth of online information 💻(and the stoking of instant gratification) we need to stay loyal to the basic principles of reading and writing. We need to slow down our lives now and then and pick up a book 📖and open ourselves into worlds of words and wonder...✨💗

Is it easy to rupture implants? The short answer is “No.” ❌

✅While silicone implant ruptures are rare they can occur at a rate of approximately 9-24% at 10 years. ⏭️🗓️

✅Wear and tear on the shell due to pressure points is the most common cause. This is hidden within your unique anatomy internally and variable from patient to patient.

✅Sudden blunt impact from falls and car accidents has not been shown to consistently cause rupture.

✅MRI or high definition ultrasound is the gold standard diagnostic tool recommended by the FDA to assess implant rupture. This is done 5-6 years after implantation and then every 2-3 years thereafter.
