New Silicone Breast Implants

As expected, both major makers of the new silicone breast implants have been bombarding us with information and sales pitches for the new silicone implants. I still think that it remains to be seen how successful these will become, given the fact that the companies are requiring so much documentation from the patient as well as the surgeon. Also, the companies want the patients to get regular MRIs, which are very expensive and would have to come out of the patient’s own pocket.
