Hi Christine,

I am not very good at physiology, but I don't think that using ones own tissue for breast implants would not have any more chance of becoming cancerous than normal. In fact it could probably be screened to make the chances less. Jack would know more about this.

Someone said that the body produces silicone. I have been thinking about that, and I doubt it, but I would like to know more about that if true. I do know that our bodies produce bleach in small amounts. Yep, the same stuff that Chlorox makes. I found that hard to believe at first, but it has been proven. Also Hydrogen Peroxide! Following that lead has led to a novel antibiotic that may be important in the future.
