peachy35 Posted August 5, 2019 Posted August 5, 2019 Hello, just wanna find out how many girls like me had an Allergan breast implant? I am very concerned about it due to recent medical reports of breast cancer causing from the implants. And after research and check on my implant certificate, mine happens to be one of the implants being suspended. *cry*
clowndebrozzo Posted August 7, 2019 Posted August 7, 2019 I'm also searching about breast implants and so far Motiva for me is no1 now
peachy35 Posted August 7, 2019 Author Posted August 7, 2019 Hello! R u having the same problem as me- having Allergan implants now and considering for a revision? Motiva seems like a popular choice but its still very new in the market and its not FDA approved. On the other hand, Mentor is FDA approved and I think they have a new silicone implant which is similar to Motiva. I still cannot decide thou.
cookie132 Posted August 7, 2019 Posted August 7, 2019 Do you have textured implants? Allergan recalled the textured implants only, not the smooth silicone. It's of course good to take precautions, but unless you have issues with the recalled implants (i.e. swelling, tenderness, etc) they are not recommending immediate explantation.
peachy35 Posted August 9, 2019 Author Posted August 9, 2019 Yup, mine is the textured ones. And I’ve checked my implants ID card, its one of the model number suspended. So far, I do not have any symptoms yet. I’ve asked my local doctor and she said its very rare chance but if I am concerned, she suggested to replace another. I am now indecisive on which implant to go for: Mentor or Motiva?
cookie132 Posted August 9, 2019 Posted August 9, 2019 I have Mentor implants, and I've had zero issues My surgeon almost exclusively uses Mentor or Ideal implants.
peachy35 Posted August 10, 2019 Author Posted August 10, 2019 I am most likely to go with Mentor too. Just hoping to hear more Motiva’s reviews because it seems very good.
blueivy31 Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 Motiva give u a hard breast Im an stark example
bonneygirl437 Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 I just found out from my surgeon that I have the dang things and had the tissue expanders. These suckers have been a problem from day 1 as I always felt like a had a metal bra on 24/7. And was told that's normal. WTH? And the dog ears hanging now are just too much.
blueivy31 Posted September 22, 2019 Posted September 22, 2019 What do u mean? Like u having a hard breast now?
cythr Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 I have motiva implants (not a very big size im only a b usually in western sizes now). I don't think they are hard at all and I like the way they look. I didn't really care that they aren't FDA approved because im pretty sure they approved Allergan implants and now look what has happened.
