Breast Implant Dangers And Natural Breast Enlargement

Some women who want bigger breasts opt for breast implant surgery. Often women decide it is right for them without looking at the unsettling facts about breast implant surgery. They also do not realize that there are all natural treatments to achieve the same effect they want, without having surgery.

Did you know that about 3% of all breast implant surgery patients experience at least one of their implants being deflated within three years of the surgery?

The main problem with breast implants (gel implants or the newest saline implants) is that they can break, or leak. Now this is not a problem with the newer saline implant because the salt water will just be absorbed by the body. It will still need to be replaced however.

Older gel implant breakage can cause one of two problems. If enough time has passed since the surgery for a contracture scar to develop around the implant (a normal healing process) then there won’t seem to be any problems. However if the contracture scar is not completely developed, or not in the right area, then the gel from the implant can seep into other parts of the body.

In this case, the woman will feel as if her breast implant is actually leaking. If the gel has leaked to other areas of the body, it may be impossible to remove all of the leaked gel. This leakage can stay in the body for years and is thought to be the cause of joint problems later in life. Again, in either case here, the implant must be removed permanently or replaced.

What causes a breast implant to break or leak?

Many things can cause a sensitive gel or saline breast implant to break or leak. These include overfilling or underfilling the implant with saline solution (only for saline implants), capsular contracture (tightening of the implant from body’s natural healing process), the doctor squeezing too hard in a mammography exam, normal aging of the implant (normally it will have to be replaced at some future time), injury to the breast, and other unknown or unexplainable reasons.

Women interested in breast enlargement should consider all natural options before choosing surgery. Some women may not be able to afford a $5,000 surgery.

There are now herbal breat enhancement supplements and exercise programs to enlarge, enhance, and lift up a woman’s breasts to the desired effect.

All natural herbal ingredients in products like Breast Gain Plus have been used for centuries to give women the necessary nutrients for healthy lactaction and breast milk, a more attractive and satisfying bustline.

The dangers of breast implant surgery are becoming the number one reason why more and more women are turning to natural breast enhancement products to achieve the same or even better results.
