Our Breast Implant Ultrasound offers a precise and comfortable way to monitor implant health without radiation.
Performed by experienced Breast Imaging Specialists, it provides high-resolution, real-time insight into both implants and surrounding tissue.
Your Ultrasound Checks For:
Ultrasound allows early detection of issues — even silent ruptures — before they cause visible changes or discomfort.
Every scan is performed by a Specialist Breast Doctor, who reviews your history, conducts your scan, and explains findings during your appointment.
Book directly with Sono Clinic — no GP referral needed.
Take control of your health and get fast, expert-led reassurance.
Results are shared immediately after your scan, with a complete report securely emailed the same day.
A detailed medical report summarising implant integrity and breast tissue findings will be sent for your records or to share with your GP or surgeon.
You’ll receive clear digital scan images, accessible on your device or easily shareable with your healthcare provider.

Absolutely. Ultrasound is completely safe and does not affect implants.
It’s ideal for examining breast tissue and implant surfaces without compression or radiation exposure.
Yes. Ultrasound can visualise tissue around and in front of implants, helping detect:
Minimal preparation is required.
You’ll lie comfortably while a clear ultrasound gel is applied to your chest.
The specialist glides a small handheld probe over your breasts to capture images of both implants and surrounding tissue.
The scan takes 20–30 minutes and is completely painless. You may only feel light pressure during the procedure.
Your specialist will review and discuss your results immediately after the scan.
A full digital report and images will be securely emailed to you later that day.
