Recalled French Breast Implants

The French Government has recalled all PIP breast implants. These were only made in France and used in the European Union and some in South America. They were made with “industrial grade” silicone, not “medical grade” silicone. That means they are contaminated with things that were never meant to be placed inside the body. All of thse implants should be removed and replaced with safe implants.

I have already spoken to women who have had these placed in other countries and we are arranging replacements here in Columbus, Ohio. We are inquiring into the possibility of receiving compensation from the French Government for these women to help with the cost. I would be happy to make inquiries on your behalf.

To set up a free consultation to discuss your implants and whether or not they are the recalled type, please call us at (614) 326-4661.  Thank you

Sincerely,

Steven Robinson, M.D., F.A.C.S.

Which Breast Implants Are Best?

I am often asked by patients which breast implants are the best – Silicone gel or saline?  My answer is that they are different products and each has its own advantages.  The saline breast implants are adjustable implants, so if you are uneven, I can make you more symmetric as well as larger with these. The silicone gel implants usually feel softer and in most people look more “natural”.

At the time of the consultation we discuss these issues and many more. We will also go over breast augmentation before/after pictures, talk about recovery after breast surgery, and cost of breast augmentation. To set up your consultation please call us at (614) 326-4661.
