This information is dedicated to PIP victims and is not meant to apply to other types of cosmetic surgery of which there are many and each has its own associated complexity. It would be reasonable to assume that the breast implant scandal with PIP is straight forward considering that the information widely publicized about the toxic silicone.

What makes these claims different is that the manufacturers of PIP are a company that was registered in France and is no longer trading, it bedriuw regisseur hat kriminele oanklachten tsjin him, en de fersekering dat er hie foar it bedriuw is net beskikber as gefolch fan de ynbreuk op de betingsten fan it belied. Sa op it mêd fan wa't is by skuld it dúdlik mooglik earste kar wêzen de fabrikant is gjin opsje.

De ferantwurdlikheid foar it brûken fan dizze boarstfergruttings liicht net allinne by de fabrikant as se wiene wichtige mar net wurkje allinne. Dêr binne ek de distributeurs wa't wy witte wurde in bedriuw neamd Cloverleaf, and the clinics and the surgeons all of whom played a part in this. It is the level of involvement and responsibility that they each had which is the subject of debate and legal investigations and this is what distinguishes this from other claims for cosmetic surgery.

It would also be reasonable for you to assume these claims are medical or clinical negligence due to the procedure but that is not the legal case.

Eftergrûnynformaasje

De siliconenkit boarstymplantaten nei boarstfergruttings waarden makke troch it Frânske bedriuw Poly Implant Prothese (PIP) en ferbea yn 2010. We are not certain of the date when they were first manufactured but this was around 2000-2003.

The product was banned due to the identification that the implants were not the safe medical silicone but rather industrial grade.

What is silicone implant rupture?

This is when the implant splits and releases the silicone gel. The split can either be a large tear or a small split which would be hardly noticeable and this is the main problem for most women. If the split was obvious they would have known there was a problem sooner but because many have a small tear where the silicone is seeping out it is not obvious.

The result of the split can cause many problems such as scar tissue, wrinkling of the skin, change of shape, pine, numbness to name but a few.

What is the global scale?

Recent estimates put the total at 300,000 implants in 65 countries to give you an indication of the massive scale of this problem with approximately 40,000 women in the UK. Allinnich 5% or so of the implants were used by the NHS.

Advice about removal?

There is no consensus and it appears to be where you live that is the answer. So if you reside in Wales, France, Germany, it is yes.

If you live in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland the answer is that it is not necessary unless you have confirmation that you have a rupture.

What is Compensation?

Compensation usually falls under two categories: 1) the pain, suffering and loss of amenity which means the physical and psychological injury; en 2) gjin finansjele ferliezen dy't soe wêze de kosten fan 'e earste sjirurgy en alle fierdere behanneling kostet, reiskosten, time off wurk, medikaasje, etc ....
