Over the last 100 years, numerous types of implants (i.e. ivory, glass, wool) and injections (i.e. epoxy resin, beeswax, paraffin) have been used in an attempt for breast augmentation but the results were poor. In 1962, the first operation using silicone implants was performed and it revolutionised breast surgery. Breast augmentation surgery (cosmetic and reconstructive) is one of the most common cosmetic surgeries in Australia, United States, and the United Kingdom.
As one of the most common cosmetic surgeries, it is important for doctors and patients to know about the risks and myths of this procedure. In this episode, we discuss breast augmentation surgery and our discussion includes common complications, risks, and breast implantation illness.
This is the story of breast augmentation
