Surgery: the least convenient way to enlarge the breasts
No matter how much cosmetic surgeons and the breast implant industry spends in advertising and producing reality shows where they show the allegedly great results women can get with breast implants. But if you take a closer look, there is something that you can peep: the pain.
Apart from this relative minor side effect -surely, not for those who suffer it, but let us agree it is something you can overcome eventually- there are other side effects that are not so benign.
If to enlarge the breasts the only available option would be to have silicon objects surgically inserted in the body, then, allow me, I will pass. Thanks, I would rather be flat chested.
Silicone has been suspected responsible of the development of autoimmune diseases, such as lupus, arthritis, and scleroderma, a skin hardening disorder. It makes sense to imagine that the body will develop antibodies to “fight” that foreign object that has been inserted, and that these antibodies might eventually turn against the body’s own cells -disorder that is after all what happens in all autoimmune diseases. Is this the price to pay for enlarging the breasts?
Much has been said referring to the impossibility of the big silicon molecules to break up in smaller molecules, that will be spread throughout the whole body. But when breast implants are removed after a certain number of years to be changed, the silicon was actually found decomposed in silica and smaller silicon molecules soluble in water, hence, spreadable from head to toe.
