Deadly~Beauty~Secrets

The deadly disfiguring history behind the detrimental body modification process of Silicone.

Silicone injections are a dangerous beauty secret for those whom seek inexpensive cosmetic surgery alternatives. It is a dangerous service of body modification proliferating illegally amongst non-medical persons, unlicensed ‘cosmetic surgeons’ and licensed physicians  all of whom are servicing and profiteering off of vulnerable populations of transgender and other actively targeted populations including Asian females and various populations of men who seek male enhancement.

Increasingly at risk for under going this dangerous body modification process are ” desperate housewives” and the like who want an immediate cosmetic surgery alternative.

History for the dangerous art of illusion

It is reported that the search for injectable soft tissue substitutes began almost 100 years ago with the injection of paraffin into the scrotum to replace missing testicles by Gersuny. In the first two decades of this century, mineral oil, paraffin and similar oils, or waxes were used for a variety of purposes. Other soft tissue substitutes including bovine collagen, silicone fluid, autologous fat, or fibrel (a mixture of gelatin powder and the patient ‘ s own plasma) are in current use to varying degrees (1).http://www.med.gazi.edu.tr/gmj/1997_2_93_95.html

Since the turn of the century, substances have been injected into women’s breasts to enlarge them. Silicone injections were first used among Japanese women in the late 1940’s and Las Vegas showgirls in the 1950’s.The silicone was modified by adding cottonseed oil or other types of oil, which was intended to cause scarring and thus prevent migration of the silicone to other parts of the body.

According to Dr. Norman Anderson, associate professor of medicine and surgery at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, approximately 50,000 American women had their breasts injected with liquid silicone. There were serious medical problems, resulting from these injections, including deaths.

In 1965, the FDA classified silicone injections as a drug under the FDA’s jurisdiction, and began to regulate the device. Dow Corning Corporation applied for a Notice of Claimed Investigational Exemption for a New Drug IND for the use of silicone as  facial augmentation device in 1965; though breast augmentation by silicone injection was not permitted in the study because of the known medical risks.

The FDA has never approved silicone injections for sale for human use.

Because of the recognized dangers of liquid silicone injections, silicone gel breast prostheses were made available in the early 1960’s. It was believed that the replacement of liquid silicone with silicone gel in a silicone envelope would prevent the silicone from migrating to other parts of the body. ”

The FDA’s authority to regulate breast implants is based on the 1976 Medical Device Amendments Public Law 94-295 to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act 21 USC 360 c.9. This law required FDA to issue regulations classifying all medical devices into one three classes; only the highest risk device Class III would require proof of safety and effectiveness.

Prior to 1976, a small number of devices, including liquid injectable silicone, were regulated as drugs; silicone injections were immediately reclassified as a Class III medical device as a result of the 1976 law.
