Medical silicone is usually used by professional cosmetic surgeons, but the procedures are often prohibitively expensive, prompting cheaper, unlicensed alternatives.
"It becomes so dire that you want to match your outside with your inside that youre willing to roll the dice and take your chances," Ms Narinesingh said.

I think she's completely at fault for this.
