WIRED: Silicone Cleavage Bounces Back

But some consumer interest groups are not convinced. Public Citizen, a
nonprofit watchdog group focusing on health and safety, released a
petition Thursday urging the FDA not to approve silicone implants.

Women's organizations including the National Organization for Women
are against approval, and several websites, including the Humantics
Foundation and Silicone Holocaust, attest to the dangers of silicone
implants.

Ilena Rose, who runs the Humantics Foundation, said she believes
surgeons who deny that silicone breast implants cause health problems
are simply motivated by money.

"If a plastic surgeon inserts just two pairs of implants a week ...
that's over a half a million dollars annually coming in to their
coffers in implant revenue alone," Rose said on a web page she created
to respond to questions from Wired News.

The FDA says both silicone and saline implants carry risks including
asymmetry, pain, hematoma, inflammation, scarring, rippling and more.
