The History of Breast Enhancement Surgery
You might be very much excited to know how the breast enhancement surgery happened
and when?
Here are some importance exciting stories!
1. The fake-boob trend started in 1890, when Austrian doctor Robert Gersuny started
injecting paraffin into women’s chests. The fake breasts looked fine for a while but
eventually grew hard and lumpy, which wasn’t desirable. Plus, infection rates were
ridiculously high, so the procedure had been abandoned by the 1920s.
2. In the 1950s, surgeons implanted everything from ivory balls and wool to ox cartilage—
eek!—but none of it really worked.
3. During World War II, Japanese prostitutes reportedly injected themselves with silicone
to attract American GIs, which quickly made silicone a hot commodity. Topless dancers in
the US soon followed suit.
4. In 1961, the first silicone breast prosthetic was created, and the rubber sac filled with
viscous silicone gel remained virtually unchanged for 30 years, until…
5. The FDA announced in the early ‘90s that silicone breast implants could break down
into the body and form a carcinogen. U.S. surgeons turned to safer, though less natural
feeling, saline implants. And men everywhere had to decide whether they prefer small,
natural boobs or large, hard ones. Decisions, decisions!
The modern world has more to say on other breast enhancement methods. The most recent
and successful development is Zoft Gum, an easy to use chewing gum. This is a natural
supplement that promises breast enhancement using herbal ingredients.
