What are the general recommendations for women with breast implants?

All women with breast implants should have routine check-ups and breast MRIs as recommended. These follow-ups are usually recommended at 1-2 years to verify the integrity of the implants. Women should do their monthly self-examinations.

Women who have implants after undergoing reconstructive surgery should be examined yearly to monitor for breast cancer and for implant issues. Imaging tests may be recommended if indicated.
