Man Rejects Silicone Implants Inserted in His Leg

Filed under: Men and Implants, News, Plastic Surgery — bethtaylor @ 10:45 am

Recently I posted about a man that enhanced his tattoo using a silicone implant. I was curious as to whether he would fair well with this implant and if he had complications, would we hear about it? Little did I know that I would get my answer so quickly. As reported in the metro.co.uk, his body rejected the implants. The article reports that he had alot of fluid around the implants and when he pushed on it, it popped out of the incision that hadn’t healed yet.

As the article reports, the incision site was sewn up again just to have it open up from all the lymphatic fluids. So he now has it wrapped in gauze until it stops oozing.

When will the FDA and the manufacturer’s of these devices admit that they are just not safe????

  1. I bet this stupid antic and its consequences will get far more attention than the many, many women suffering today from their implants.
