Not all implants are done for vanity, someone very close to me has had breast cancer 3 times, and had reconstruction done. She was told by her surgeon he did not use imported ones 2 years ago because of these risks. I know they still do not have to have this done but it gives a lot of confidence back after a very harrowing illness.

The NHS was created out of the ideal that good healthcare should be available to all, regardless of wealth.

When it was launched by the then minister of health, Aneurin Bevan, on July 5 1948, it was based on three core principles:

 

* that it meet the needs of everyone

* that it be free at the point of delivery

* that it be based on clinical need, not ability to pay

Women with normal breasts have no clinical need for implants. For their own vanity they want bigger tits, if they pay for it and it goes wrong why should the NHS pay for it. The money will have to come form somewhere probably at the expense of other patients on waiting lists.

Indeed, but if the implants they've had turn out to be a health risk then there is a clinical need to have them removed.

I partly agree BUT...why should we the taxpayer pick up the tab for clinics trying to make a quick ££ but using the imported "boob"??

 

 

As said I have used the NHS from age 5 when I had perthes disease to my jaw broken to my now detacted retina....plus many other stitches etc due to rugby and work...

Serious answer: if they are faulty then whoever put them in, for whatever reason, should be responsible for taking them out. Costs incurred should be reclaimed from the manufacturer's insurance providers. I believe the manufacturers themselves have gone bust, if you will pardon the pun. And whilst we are on the subject of puns I cannot be the only person to have noted that the trade body for these surgeons is called he British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons...BAAPS.

 

Less serious answer: having had a go on both, I can confirm that a real little pair beats a fake big pair, hands down, any day of the week.

I would hazard a guess that most women who have cosmetic surgery are tax payers too? If not, I bet their wealthy husbands are ;)

Glad you got that off your chest ....Agree absolutely ...Any lady who has this operation carried out purely out of vanity also need their heads testing ....personally I think any more than a mouthfull is a waste

just read a statistic saying 95% of these implants were done privately, only 5% done on the nhs.

 

no way should the tax payer be fixing this problem, if you could afford to pay for them then you can afford to have them removed.

 

if someone dyes their hair and the chemicals make it fall out we wouldn't expect to be paying for a wig?

I agree

 

I don't think the NHS should be giving girls breast implants for cosmetic reasons.

If it's due to disfigurement then it's a different story.

As far as repairing the damage done by private clinics, yes, they have a moral

obligation to help anyone in need. It's what they do.

But they should be recouping costs through the courts for the reckless work of others.

Of a french company that has gone bankrupt.....

 

NHS should remove the implants if they leak, and if the NHS fitted them should replace them. PIP duped the industry it wasnt the clinics, the patients or surgeons.
