New information about the rare blood cancer ALCL assoicated with textured breast implants

Helpful video explaining ALCL risk associated with breast implants
Home take messages:
1. so far no risk for smooth implants
2. very small risk for textured implants
3. contact your plastic surgeon if if symptoms develop - swelling of the breasts
4. no indication of implants removal/exchange unless there are symptoms or confirmed case of ALCL
