Guest guest Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 My concern with the gummy bear implants is, not that they rupture, but what condition the implant is in after years of being exposed to body fluids. The thin shells they have now deteriorate measurably resulting in a leak or rupture. By then, who knows how much silicone has been distributed throughout the body? With the gummy bear implants, as the implant deteriorates, there won't be the rupture signal . . . As I see it, women will slowly become sicker and sicker without having a clue.
