This YouTube video (recorded Jan 30, 2023) documents a post-explant inspection of silicone gel breast implants by Dr. Robert Whitfield and an assistant. In this chunk they identify the left implant as an Allergan '304' (style 15/304), note differences in capsule thickness (one thicker, one thinner, prone to tearing), and state the implants are intact.
Hey, it's Dr. Whitfield. We just finished an explant. We're going to open these up and have a look at them. These are silicone gel implants. This is the left side.
Go ahead and open this up. Pull this off. This is a.
Allergan 304.
Style 15. 304.
That one was a little bit thicker.
Capsule. This one's a little bit thinner. Parts of this would tear and come apart when you're doing it. This is a style 15, 3, 4 Allergan implant as well.
Implants intact.
They don't feel like they have any biofilm. Nothing slick. It's not ruptured or leaking any gel. It's not sticky. That's it.
