Kristin Cavallari discovers ruptured breast implant during surgery
Reality star discovered the issue during consultation to have her implants redone ahead of a photoshoot
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Kristin Cavallari wanted to change the appearance of her breast implants and learned that one had ruptured, leading to surgery to fix it.
During a recent episode of her "Let's Be Honest" podcast, Cavallari opened up about her right breast implant not "laying properly," which prompted her to get a consultation to have her implants redone.
"Things happen so gradually. There wasn't a moment where I was like, ‘My boobs look different,’ or, like, ‘My boobs aren't laying right.’ I knew that my boobs were not laying how I wanted them to lay," she said, initially believing gravity was the reason she was unhappy with her breasts.

The "Laguna Beach" alum continued, "Particularly, the right one was not... and I thought like maybe gravity over time had taken hold, but it just wasn't how I wanted it, right? It just wasn't ideal."
Ahead of a photoshoot for her Uncommon James brand, Cavallari decided to get her breasts redone. It wasn't until after her surgery that she learned of her ruptured implant.

"There is no way of knowing how long this implant was ruptured for. My body then formed a huge piece of scar tissue around it... that's why my right boob was definitely not laying right, and it was f----- up.
"I had a ruptured implant, which is crazy to think about," she said on her podcast.
