My how you are jumping the gun on Dow and how they get there money back. First of all no implants have been proven safe not even Inameds or Mentors. They got the go ahead from the FDA to use more women as guinea pigs in a 10 year study because if you read there core studies right from Inamed (allergan) they did not submit any data on neuro diseases, connective tissue etc. Lets not forget either how the plastic surgeons tout these as the new and improved implants not like Dows.

Dow has been cleared of nothing, Dow like Inamed and Mentor only submits data that is favorable to themselves.

Ask your self why the FDA officals or the plastic surgeons not to mention the manufacturers why they won't sign a document claiming they are safe.

If you were to do your research you would find there is already deaths documented from the new and improved implants from toxic shock. There has been implant removals due to complications need I go on.

Why did Dow have internal documents sealed by the courts? you make me laugh when people like you make such idiotic comments it shows the real ignorance of people on this issue.
