Default Breast Enhancement Surgery

Breast Enhancement Surgery

Breast enlargement surgery, according to the American Society of
Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), was the fourth most popular invasive surgical
procedure among cosmetic plastic surgeries performed in 2000. In a
press release dated July 12, 2001, the ASPS says that breast
augmentation was performed on 212,500 women last year.

Meanwhile, millions of women have been subjected to the ill effects of
these modern day vanity contraptions that were bought in good faith.

Remember!!

Silicone gel implants were banned in 1992 by FDA.

If you have (or had) a ruptured silicone breast implant, you will be
denied Health Insurance Coverage.

Saline-filled implants tend to have a higher rate of leaking and
deflation than silicone gel implants, which means more frequent
surgery to replace them.

In a study published in the Lancet medical journal, Dr Lori Brown of
the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says: "There is emerging
consensus that both the incidence and prevalence of breast-implant
rupture are much higher than previously suspected."

21% overall increase in cancers for women with implants, compared to
women of the same age in the general population.

Implant patients were three times as likely to die from lung cancer,
emphysema and pneumonia as other plastic surgery patients.The study is
based on medical records and death certificates of almost 8,000 women
with breast implants, including silicone gel implants and saline
implants, and more than 2,000 other plastic surgery patients.

and the Food and Drug Administration, with Dr. Louise Brinton from NCI
as lead author. )
