Silicone Cleavage Bounces Back

[AngryAmish]

"Women in the United States may soon have open access once again to silicone breast implants, which were taken off the market in 1992 because of safety concerns.

Canadian regulators cleared the implants for sale and implantation in October. Silicone implant makers -- as well as many women who believe silicone implants look and feel more natural than alternatives such as saline bags -- expect the Food and Drug Administration will soon follow in Canada's footsteps.

"FDA is currently reviewing applications submitted by Inamed and Mentor for cohesive silicone gel breast implants," wrote Heidi Valetkevitch, a press officer at the FDA, in an e-mail. "Canada's decision to approve standard silicone gel breast implants manufactured by Inamed and Mentor is consistent with FDA's determination in 2005 that these devices are 'approvable,' pending resolution of certain issues."
