Reports that certain breast implants may be linked to a rare cancer called anaplastic large cell lymphoma, may have you concerned. While these concerns are still being investigated, Perry Johnson, MD, plastic and reconstructive surgeon at Village Pointe Aesthetic Surgery | Dreams MedSpa, says it is extremely rare, and his team uses an alternative, a more popular breast implant known as the gummy bear. This is a highly cohesive implant that holds its shape better than the textured surface saline implants that may be linked to the cancer.
