Mission Statement for Implant Awareness Society (I.A.S.)
Educational: To educate the general public, using information and scientific facts, to help them better understand how the body reacts to saline and silicone implants.
Charitable: To give emotional support and guidance that will help implant patients and their families cope with the complications caused by all indwelling implants. Through our far-reaching network, we are often able to recommend specific doctors and health-care workers who have experience working with patients that have unique health challenges due to their implants.
The society has received many emails of thanks from women and men who have been given support throughout their trials and mishaps due to silicone implants. Some women that were confined to wheelchairs regained their health due to the support and doctor referrals given to them by the I.A.S.
