Posted in Media, News, Press Release at 2:48 pm by admin

BreastImplantsUSA.com conducts exclusive interviews with highly respected plastic surgeons on the recent FDA approval of silicone implants for use in breast augmentation.

CULVER CITY, Calif – BreastImplantsUSA.com conducted exclusive phone interviews with industry recognized board certified plastic surgeons from around the country regarding the FDA approval of silicone implants. The doctors voice the benefits of using silicone implants as opposed to the saline implants that have been in use for years as well as the impact this change will have on the industry and the women who are considering breast augmentation.

“Breast augmentation is an important decision and our patients must have all possible educational resources. Patient education is the core of our website.” said David Phillips, CEO and founder of Breast Implants USA. “The audio interviews allow our patients to hear unrehearsed, real opinions from board certified plastic surgeons. The surgeons have very professional and diverse opinions in reference to the recent approval of silicone implants.” Vice President Adam Lilly adds, “The goal of the audio interviews is to provide patients with the latest information pertaining to the newest developments about silicone breast implants. By conducting these interviews, we hope to equip patients to find a board certified plastic surgeon that best fits their personal desires.”

The articles and interviews found at BreastImplantsUSA.com offer women an invaluable resource in making that critical decision for their breast augmentation surgery. The women will get a better idea if silicone implants are right for them. Dr. Peter J. Capizzi who has been in an ongoing study of silicone implants since 1997, comments in an interview, “Silicone implants are softer, ripple less, and tend to give a more natural result, as patients have commented.”

The all-star breast enhancement surgeons of BreastImplantsUSA.com will continue to offer saline as well as the newly approved silicone implants in their practices. The articles and interviews will educate women on the history and further development of silicone implants and why the FDA banned silicone implants in the first place. In another part of the interview with Dr. Capizzi, he goes on to say that, “…the pre-market analysis and most recent studies have shown that some of the silicone implant models have a less rupture risk than saline” — information that is very important for women who are considering breast augmentation options.

Interview with Dr. Peter Capizzi, Board Certified Plastic surgeon serving Charlotte, NC in reference to the recent approval of silicone implants:

Breast Implants USA: What is your viewpoint of the recent approval of silicone implants?

Peter Capizzi MD: This is a giant step for most cosmetic breast surgeons. For 14 years silicone implants have had restricted use and in some respects stifled breast surgery. The silicone implant approval last Friday is a fantastic advancement for cosmetic breast surgery. There are multiple silicone models that are excellent, give a natural shape, and provide a natural feel which for our reconstructive patients was wonderful, and now for our augmentation patients, is excellent.
