Quick summary
This Natrelle textured silicone gel-filled breast implant (moderate plus profile, BIOCELL) is a breast implant made by Allergan. The 44 reports mostly describe implants that rupture or break inside the body, sometimes with gel leaking out, along with hardening and tightening of the tissue around the implant (capsular contracture) that causes pain and swelling. All 44 reports describe injuries, with no deaths. One recall, still open, began in July 2019 after FDA updated safety information on a rare blood cancer (BIA-ALCL) seen with textured breast implants.
