I have only flown once since my implant, but I had no issue here in the USA.

They give you a wallet card explaining that you have an implant.

If there is no metal it should not trip any thing. I get the body scan anytime I go thru Security because of the metal in the hip

It does in deed have that but, it also explains why it looks like you are trying to hide something in your undies ;)

I fly 3 weeks a month and have never been questioned. You don't need to carry an implant card.
Good luck and safe travels.
