Re: Opinion: Should I go with saline or sillicon?
I spoke with some friends who had both and think saline is scary and have a harder feeling. It might cause rippling too? How does rippling happen? They said its because I dont have much tissue up there. I am a small B cup on good days but sometimes I feel like I have a large A cup. Does this sound right ladies?

Saline ripples when the bags are not overfilled. Saline gets really hard when the bags are really overfilled. Also, not having a lot of breast tissue makes rippling more prominent if you do ripple.
Re: Opinion: Should I go with saline or sillicon?
I have saline and they are really soft and squishy. I was barely an A cup too. I do have a tiny bit of rippling on the underside of my boob but not anything you can see but you can feel it. I wish I would've paid the extra $1000 and gotten silicone but only because they have a lower chance of deflating. I'm so scared to sleep on my tummy or have anyone hug me too hard, etc.. in fear that they'll pop..lol.

Even textured implants have been proven to often cause a rare form of lymphoma, and that's because the textured pieces of silicone flake off and are absorbed by the body. They've already proven that. But otherwise, solid silicone does not seem to be much of a problem.
Liquid/gel silicone with no shell, on the other hand, is continually absorbed by the body. There is no shell, so it easily gets into the blood stream. It never ends and often builds up. Kind of sucks. Wish I had never gotten lip injections.
Here's the thing. Perhaps this is just a coincidence, but okay. When I was a young toddler, I had (hard) silicone tubes put in my ears. Not many problems. When i was 19, I had (liquid/gel) silicone injected into my lips and was very sick (autoimmune problems) afterward. I'm still sick, but babying my body, not eating gluten, eating little-to-no dairy, and living in a warmer climate does wonders to really minimize the negative.
Silicone implants were taken off the market for most of the 90s because they were thought to induce autoimmune problems (namely in those who are genetically prone to them). It was apparently proven not have no correlation, but the studies were not properly done so I really don't believe it. Without even knowing all that, I got permanent silicone lip injections and its been hell since. My lymph nodes in my throat swelled up to the size of golf balls, I lost my voice for months, I was very very sick. Now, I am not 100% sure this was caused by the silicone, but after years of trying to figure out why/how this happened, that's the only thing that changed for me. I got silicone injected, and the throat is close to the lips. It could have been random chance, but the more I researched, the more I found such similar cases to mine. Coincidence or autoimmune-inducer? So seeing how my body has been affected by the amount equivalent to a teaspoon of silicone, I don't even want to know how my body would react with silicone implants- especially if they leaked. Nothing can 100% detect a leaking silicone implant. Or for all I know, nothing would happen and I'd be fine. But do I want to take that risk all for slightly squishier boobies?
Chances are the silicone would never leak if they were changed often enough, but there's still that risk. Once liquid/gel silicone is in your body without a shell, you can never have 100% of it completely removed. The damage has been done. So I were to get silicone implants and they leaked, not only would I have left over permanent silicone residue in my lips, I'd then have it in my chest as well. That's my personal dilemma.
This is really scary. I know at least 20 girls probably way more that have silicone injections in their booty. BIG. I've considered it myself but thought better of it.
Not silicone implants, actual injections they got done in a hotel room.
