Professional wrestler Charlotte Flair revealed that she had a medical issue with her implants leaking silicone, which led to her having surgery.
Born to retired professional wrestler Ric Flair, Charlotte Flair took to her Twitter on July 13, 2020, to update about her air conditioning being broken.
In the tweet, she took the opportunity to address the rumors and speculations surrounding her undergoing plastic surgery and her health issues.
Flair clarified that the surgery she underwent was cosmetic to fix a medical issue from her previous surgery and not because of silicone poisoning.
My air conditioning is broken, and we have a little free time. These tweets may be spaced out a bit, but we’re going to talk time off, plastic surgery and boobs.

The WWE star also expressed her frustration with the public’s fixation on her appearance, writing:
The entire world having an opinion on the topic bothers me more than I care to let on, so we are going to discuss it.
Charlotte Flair Opened Up About Breast Implants and the Battle with Silicone Poisoning!
In a series of candid tweets, Charlotte Flair shared her experiences and challenges with breast implants.
Whilst addressing the public’s speculation regarding her plastic surgery, she explained that the constant opinions about her appearance had taken a toll on her, which prompted her to speak out.
Flair recalled an incident in 2018 when she fell ill while visiting her brother’s house.
Eventually, a trip to the doctor revealed that she was suffering from silicone poisoning due to a leaking breast implant, which had been leaking for quite some time.
She disclosed that the severity of her case was alarming to the doctor, writing:
A trip to the doctor tells us the likely culprit is silicone poisoning, and that my implant had been leaking for quite some time. It was one of the worse cases the doctor had seen.
Given a few options to address the issue, Flair chose the one that allowed her to return to the ring quickly despite the recovery time.
Nonetheless, a few months later, she experienced a similar issue again and returned to the doctor. This time, she opted for a longer-term solution, even though it required a longer recovery period.
Fast forward to a few months ago. Something felt off, so I went back to the doctor. Same issue again.
This time, I’m going with an option that I believe will solve the issue long time, even though the recovery period is a little longer than I would like.
Flair later clarified that her recent surgery was cosmetic and not due to silicone poisoning.
To clarify: I do not have silicone poisoning this time. The surgery is cosmetic to fix an issue from a prior surgery

The body will be rested, and the mind still focused on legacy. Focused on this job. Focused on being better. Always being better.“
