What You Ought to Know About Breast Implant History

Breast implantsBreast enlargement has a history that goes back over 119 years. During the first 65 years or so the enlargement was done primarily by directly injecting substances like paraffin, fat or silicon into the breasts. This method proved to be rather dangerous and led to many ill effects. Before the year 1962 plastic foam materials were used, however these too did not have much success. In 1963 two scientists namely Thomas Cronin and Frank Gerow did a research on breast implants and came up with the idea of implanting silicon bags directly into the breasts of women for breast enlargement. By the year 1972 a lot of women turned to these breast implants but also complained of many problems like leakage and ruptures. The silicon was then replaced with saline bags containing a saline (salt) solution. Even if these bags leaked there was no harm caused to the body as the water was absorbed up by the body.

The silicon breast implants used in present times for breast enlargement have gone over a number of changes from generation to generation. If we look at the history of breast implants, after 1963 there were three major generations of [...]

Breast Enhancement – All About Silicone Breast Implants

Breast Enhancement - All About Silicone Breast ImplantsIt is extremely common for women to be dissatisfied with the size and shape of their breasts. Breast enhancement (known technically as Breast Augmentation Mammoplasty) involves placing an artificial implant into the breast so as to increase the size of the breast and to produce an amount of uplift where necessary. Breast enhancement is by far the most popular cosmetic surgery procedure requested by women.

Why Have Breast Enhancement Surgery?

Whatever you might have heard to the contrary, other than surgery, there is no other method of increasing breast size evenly, safely and permanently.

The only generally accepted method to increase the size of the breast is to insert an implant into a space created behind your own breast. It is the size of this space (determined by your own anatomy) along with your own wishes, that determines the size of breast implant employed.

The Latest Generation of Silicone Breast Implants

Breast implants have come a long way since their inception. Modern implants are extremely safe, and you’ll be surprised at how incredibly strong they are. At many consultations, you will be able to see, feel and even try on recommended implants during initial consultation.

So What Is Silicone?

Silicones are in fact man-made molecules (polymers) that are widely used in numerous skin and hair products; in processed food and food packaging; in most baby foods; in many medicines, syringes and most other types of medical implants. Consequently every day:

  • We absorb silicone into our body through our skin
  • We ingest it in our food~It is fed to children
  • We feed it to our children~We absorb it from the food we consume
  • We may even inject it directly into our blood stream~It might even be injected into our bodies [...]
