What is the lifespan of breast implants?

As seen on plasticsurgery.org: The reality is that breast implants are not considered to be “lifetime devices,” but they are designed to be long lasting and safe. Patients can expect today’s implants—the products of decades of research into stronger shells and more stable fillers—to last more than a decade, with the chance of rupture increasing about one percent each year.

You can go on a diet, you can exercise until you fall over, but those areas just don’t budge.
