How is breast augmentation / breast enlargement done?
A breast implant used in breast augmentation / breast enlargement is made of an outer layer of silicone and may be filled with silicone gel or salt water. Some breast implants used in breast augmentation / breast enlargement are round and others are shaped. Either breast implant can give excellent results. The manufacturers life expectancy of breast implants is 10 or more years, although breast implants used in breast augmentation / breast enlargement can stay in without problems for much longer. Many studies have been carried out to establish whether silicone breast implants used in breast enlargement / breast augmentation cause certain diseases. At present there is no evidence to suggest that silicone breast implants are associated with an increased incidence of breast cancer. There is also no evidence to suggest that these breast implants cause autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis.
