Replacement of pipo implants!

Hiya ladies, i one of the 43 people who got the PIP implants so MYA are very kindly replacing them. But my dilemma is i dont kno what to change to! When i had mine done, profile wasnt mentioned to me and i had high ones apparently, but the surgeon i saw recently suggested goin from high to low profile with uplift, anyne else out there had same or similar surgery carried out? Any feedback wud be appreciated!x

Watch that tonight you never know may get some luck! X

Added u btw x

Beaky, the government are now paying if private practices won’t do it for free – you shouldnt still have to pay half with transform? Was all over the news yesterday. But from what i heard, in england they are only removing, in wales they are removing and replacing xx

Yeah I had heard they too chick but I want them replaced otherwise I’m left with another problem. Then still have to pay to get new ones.

I’m in a no win situation as are many others. Yet we are victims of fraud and negligence! It’s disgusting the way this is being handled x

Come and live with me for a month, register with a gp here and youll get them replaced too lol x

Hahaha I would ask where u live but it’s anywhere other than England that ate doing it! Haha x

Lol Cardiff x

the girls who had pip inplants wen did u have them done?? i dont remeber what type of inplants i had, but mys said they havnt used them since early 2009, just wondering if this was true as i had myn jan 2011

Yeah urs will be fine hun. But if u want to check either look at your paperwork or ring ur clinic and ask. But I’m 99% certain you won’t have them x

Had mine in 2005 x

Hi terri

I can confirm that MYA did not use PIP breast implants in January 2011. Please see our official statement below and please don’t hesitate to call your PC if you need further reassurance.

Thank you x

“MYA Cosmetic Surgery launched in the UK in June 2007. Since 2007 our principal implant provider has been the American company Allergan who have an excellent clinical record. Our records show that of over 12,500 implants used only 6 have ruptured.

On rare occasions we have used other implant providers but this has been in less than 1% of the surgical procedures that we have carried out. We only ever used a very small number of PIP implants and so our data is not statistically meaningful. We last used the implants in 2009. Of the 48 patients that have had PIP implants 4 implants have ruptured (4 of 96 implants). On each occasion we have replaced the implants free of charge and we will continue to do so.

We take patient care very seriously and so if any of our patients have any concerns then we will continue to quickly offer them the support and reassurance that they need. If a MYA patient has a ruptured PIP implant or they are distressed by the presence of a PIP implant then we will remove and replace the implants free of charge.

If any MYA patients are concerned we would ask them to contact us directly so that we can arrange for one of our highly experienced surgeons to explain all of their options to them. This will of course also be free of charge”.

thankyou
