Breast Augmentation Doctors Views on Silicone Implants

Breast augmentation doctors and others are weighing in on the re-approval of Silicone Breast Implants.

From the Sacramento Bee editorial section: FDA's breast implant warning is inadequate

From the LA Times: Breast implant makers, plastic surgeons expect boost from silicone

And from one surgeon an opposing view in the Twin Cities.com Pioneer Press: A toast to silicone implants? Not from this surgeon

I have enlarged the breasts of thousands of women with silicone implants since they were introduced in the 1960s. I even wrote articles in favor of silicone. Then Paula S. came to see me in 1992. At age 32, she had had at least three breast surgeries, and each time her breasts became rock-hard and painful. She could not lie on her stomach. We replaced the silicone with smooth saline implants. Within a short time these too became hard, as did the next set.

As you can see, even the breast augmentation doctors can't get together on this one.

Interesting developments on the horizon I'm sure!
