The Food and Drug Administration approved silicone breast implants for women 22 and older in November, but warned patients probably would need at least one additional operation because the implants don't last a lifetime.

Dr. Ronald C. Barry, a Saginaw Township plastic and reconstructive surgeon, says his patients are requesting silicone again. He put in a set of implants for one woman a week after the FDA announcement, he said. He has two more surgeries scheduled. "There is interest now that this is an option again for augmentation," he said. "Women are excited. "The science has caught up. No medical device is perfect. The FDA has simply allowed women to have a choice." Women who required reconstructive breast surgery after cancer treatment have had the choice of silicone or saline for 10 years. But silicone wasn't available for most women wanting purely cosmetic augmentation since 1992. Three years after the ban, Midland-based Dow Corning Corp., once the major manufacturer of silicone breast and other implants, faced 19,000 lawsuits, pushing it into Chapter 11 in 1995. The company emerged from the lawsuit in 2004, after setting aside $2.35 billion to settle claims. Dow Corning hasn't manufactured breast implants since 1992 and has no intention of re-entering the business, company officials say. |
