Silicone breast implant rupture study
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study follows women with silicone breast implants for up to five years to see which implant features, like how long they've been in place or their surface type, might be linked to rupture. If you join, you'll have an annual check to monitor your implants.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman aged 18 or older.
- You had breast augmentation for cosmetic reasons (not reconstruction after mastectomy or injury).
- Your implants are permanent silicone ones (not saline or temporary expanders).
- You know the exact date or at least the year your implants were placed, and details like pocket placement, incision type, etc.
- Your implants appear intact at the first imaging check.
- You can commit to annual check-ups for up to five years and sign a consent form.

This study follows women who receive Euromi Biosciences silicone gel breast implants during either breast reconstruction after mastectomy or cosmetic breast surgery. It aims to see how the implants perform over 10 years.
This study follows women with cosmetic breast implants over time to see if certain features (like age of implant or type of surgery) are linked to the implant shell developing tiny cracks or tears. By tracking participants, researchers hope to learn how to predict and prevent these issues.
This study follows women who choose either breast augmentation with silicone implants or other cosmetic breast surgery (without implants) to see whether they develop any long-term symptoms, like fatigue or pain, and how these affect their daily lives over five years. It helps women understand the full picture of possible health effects after these procedures.
This study follows women with breast implants over time to see who develops capsular contracture (hardening of the scar tissue around the implant). It will help doctors understand which implant features matter for long-term results.
This study looks at why breast implants shift or rotate (move from their original position) after cosmetic breast augmentation. It will follow you for 2 years after your surgery to see if the type of implant or how it was placed affects this, which could help you and your doctor choose the best option.
This trial follows women who get their first breast implant surgery or a repeat (primary vs secondary) and records side effects and how satisfied they feel. It aims to better understand safety and satisfaction with smooth-surface silicone implants.
