Suicides linked to cosmetic surgery
Women who have received breast implants are up to three times more likely to commit suicide. One theory that has been put forward for the statistic is that leaks from breast implants could alter the patient's brain chemistry thereby making them more vulnerable to suicide or self harm. However surgeons and psychological experts suggests that while there may be a statistical link between having cosmetic surgery and committing suicide, the relationship between the two is not causal, i.e. the suicide is not caused by the cosmetic surgery, and that a third factor actually links the two issues.
