EP:9 Should You Replace Your Breast Implants Every 10 Years?

Body By Poly Podcast with Dr. Alain Polynice

Dr. Alain Polynice discusses the common question of whether breast implants need to be exchanged every 10 years. He explains that while implants are designed to be sturdy and many patients have had them for decades without issues, they are not lifetime devices. Potential concerns such as displacement, rupture, or capsular contracture often arise around the 10 to 12-year mark. Dr. Polynice advises patients to consult their surgeons regularly and consider an implant evaluation, including an MRI, around this timeframe. This proactive approach helps to mitigate any significant problems before they occur.

Whether you’re considering your first procedure or revisiting one that didn’t go as planned, Dr. Polynice brings you real talk about what works, what doesn’t, and what it actually takes to sculpt the body you want.

Expect short, info-packed solo episodes that break down the details of procedures like breast augmentation, tummy tucks, and body lifts—plus longer interviews with anesthesiologists, recovery experts, and top surgeons in the field.
