You can't have breast enlargement on the NHS for purely selfish reasons, only medical grounds and they're medically assessed, usually including psychiatric assessment as well as physical considerations. Therefore this whole debate seems silly to me. I already said that if it is the case that someone has had private treatment to have their breast enlargement then the private clinic should rectify the problem anyway, not the NHS. Though to be honest just because someone does something out of vanity doesn't necessarily mean they shouldn't have their health problems seen to. Some people suffer severe allergic reactions from hair dye, should we not bother ringing for the ambulance if we see them suffocating just because it happened to be caused by someone seeking to change the way they look? I'm not convinced.

I personally wouldn't have a breast enlargement because I'm happy with them but I can understand why women and men choose to use plastic surgery to enhance the way they feel about themselves. Things go wrong and normally if they've paid a private clinic for that treatment then it is the private clinic who fixes it. But who is at fault if the UK has allowed these implants into the country in the first place? If you are blaming the government for lax regulations in terms of immigration then why are you blaming ordinary people for the government's inability to keep faulty illegal produce out of the country and out of use? I don't really understand the logic. I'd rather that money I contribute to be paid to fix the problems these women might face than pay for the PM's holidays, put it that way!
