FDA: Stay focused on science, not emotion, physicians urge

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) General and Plastic Surgery Devices Panel recently voted 7-2 in favor of silicone implants for breast augmentation, paving the way for American women considering breast augmentation surgery to have a choice for the first time in 13 years. We encourage the FDA to take the science-based advice of its panel and allow silicone breast implants back on the market.
