France recalling breast implants .

But have you heard of a faulty breast implant epidemic? Well that seems to be a case sweeping France. That's because French authorities are now asking 30,000 women to have their breast implants removed because of unauthorised silicone gel that is potentially subject to rupture.

These faulty breast implants, provided by a French company have proven to have a higher rupture rate than other types of implants. Already 2,000 women in France have complained to the police about them. Meanwhile, a criminal investigation into these potentially dangerous implants and their provider has been launched.
