Titanium Breast Implants?!

Was there a big market for this?  Who would want to add this kinda weight to their body??  Not to mention the clank sound if you knock on your chest....

Just wanted to once again take the opportunity to declare I hate fake breasts.  Thank you.

[Knightshade Dragon]

They aren't fake breasts....they are simply 'property enhancements'.  

[stiffler]

How do you make a pound of fat look appealing?  Put a nipple on it.

If I buy 'em I want to be able to play with them whenever I like.

There are other uses to this...including breast replacement from cancer or correcting one breast which is radically out of proportion to the other.  To each their own.

I agree, Eric.  I'm no expert on reconstructive breast surgery, but it sounds like that would be a very good thing for women needing an entire breast rebuilt due to a mastectomy.

[Knightshade Dragon]

But they can do that with existing tissue, why would you want to put metal inside your body unless you had to?? (pins)

[stiffler]

It would probably be easier to shape than tissue.  I would have to imagine it keeps its shape better.

I may not typically support cosmetic peripheral enhancement, especially as regards the risk associated with major surgery, however I think everyone here is overlooking that this is a chance to become a cyborg.  A Cyborg.  That's all.

I imagine airport metal detectors become fun, too.
