11. EXTRUSION Unstable or weakened tissue covering and/or interruption of wound healing may result in extrusion, (when the breast implant comes through the skin). Surgery needed to correct this can result in unacceptable scarring or breast tissue loss. 12. NECROSIS Necrosis, the formation of dead tissue around the implant, may prevent wound healing and require surgical correction and/or implant removal. A permanent scar may form. |
