If a product burst ...guess what? That waiver means nothing. Consumer law is still a practice going strong in winning cases for faulty products.

I had a malformity since childhood. I'll just say ..it wasn't vanity to wear a bathing suit where a concave rib cage wasn't so prevelant. It was socially debilitating...

I had no cartilage left in those joints, so really no choice there. I think the knees were done too soon, though--kind of got talked into it by the surgeon and insurance deadlines loomed. I guess if I want to walk pain-free, that's what it takes. But it is highly abnormal for them to pop out of joint like mine did. SIGH.

I never heard of "rejection issues" with joint implants, but I wonder if the body wants to reject them too?

The replacements are said to have a "life" too, with possible adjustments 10 -20 years down the road. Egads, I dread that!

Breast come in all different shapes and sizes. Plenty of natural breasts have all different kinds of "spacing" There is not necessarily any more fullness at the top with an implant - it depends on the size and placement.
Well, thanks so much for the diagnosis, LOL. My boobs definitely were overweight, hence the reduction. The rest of me is A-OK.

I asked for "fullness" at the top when mine were reduced, but was told that would require an implant, LOL. That "look" is not all that natural, but it sure looks good! oh well....

Re the mammogram, mine were squished horribly to where I could not stand it. I can't sleep on my stomach either.

I find your comments very uneducated.Nothing you say is true and if so, please bring proof. I spoke with several plastic surgeons and your statements are all untrue.

Huh? I know what a waiver is. And I never said it doesn't absolve the medical process.

OMG, don't be ridiculous. Go with 300cc.

i did medical transcription for many years. one group of doctors i worked for, their entire practice was comprised of people with very serious illness and chronic health problems, all of them had implants. ugh.

you are putting foreign materials in your body that are toxic.
of course there are going to be problems.

I love reading about this and all of the success stories. More power to you all. I think I would go with the 300cc. Not too big and more natural.



Has anyone ever had any problems with them while flying, or in high altitude? Do they pressurize?

What city is that?

Well, if you are a doctor in LA probably most patients have implants. Doesn't mean their issues are from implants. But yes, of course you may have issues through implants, or fake hips, or screws in your body. Any foreign body can cause issues.

But if you want them badly enough and have more confidence with them, you don't care. Just like people who are depressed and take antidepressants. Who then may cause high blood pressure. So they take high blood pressure pills. Then they have erection problems and take blue pills. Those blue pills contribute to the high blood pressure. That was my ex.

Of course he could have just worked out, eaten healthy and overall have a healthier lifestyle and he may not have been in that situation.

A woman with small boobs doesn't have that option.

Why is 400cc ridiculous? I think that would give me around a D cup, which would look nice on my frame. I don't think a D cup is as huge as a lot of people think... The women you see with really humongous boobs are probably more of F or G cup..
