From silicone gel bleed chemistry to skeletal muscle and lipid alterations: clinical and in vitro evidence

2026-08-24

Abstract excerpt

Musculoskeletal symptoms are frequently reported following silicone breast implantation. However, the biological mechanisms linking implant-derived silicone exposure to skeletal muscle alterations remain poorly understood, partly because the biological effects of silicone have long been debated in the context of its biocompatibility. Here, we chemically characterized the low-molecular-weight fraction of the breast...
