The mum of two, 53, got it checked by her GP and was diagnosed with cancer in December.
Surgeons removed the half-inch lump and told Rebecca the cancer had not spread.
She was then given the all-clear after some radiotherapy.
The former marketing executive, of Birmingham, said: “I’m just counting my lucky stars I had the boob job.
“It was the implants that pushed the lump forward.
“I could have been wandering around not knowing I had it thinking that 15 months ago my mammogram was clear and I wasn’t due another one for another two years.
“It definitely could have saved my life.
“It saved it from progressing to further stages and ending up in my lungs, liver or whatever.”
