Woman sells her used breast implants for £500 on eBay after getting new ones to celebrate turning 25
‘I am trying to earn a bit of money from my old belongings and why not?’
Horrified cosmetic surgery insiders warned second-hand implants posed a serious health risk.

‘Patient safety is paramount and the PIP Breast implant scandal should act as an omen to anyone even contemplating cutting corners.
‘Implants themselves are sterile medical devices and no manufacturer recommends their reuse, even for the same patient.”
