Synopsis

Between 2001 and 2010 about 80,000 Poly Implant Prothese (PIP) implants representing some 40,000 women were sold in the UK. Implants are usually designed to last a minimum of ten years however, the lifespan of PIP implants was averaging at as little as three years. From about 2006 onwards, concerns began to emerge amongst cosmetic surgeons in the UK regarding the performance of PIP implants. The alarm was originally raised after many patients and surgeons reported premature rupturing. Breast Surgery and PIP Implants: The Essential Guide has been written with the purpose of assisting you and giving you factual advice and information on breast surgery and PIP implants. This book will provide you with reassurance and guidance."
