Did you know? The first breast implant was performed on a dog

In 1962 the first breast implant was successfully performed on a Human.

Timmie Jean Lindsay was the woman in question. A mother and factory worker from Texas, Timmie was after a solution to an unwanted tattoo that she had. (Nothing shocking about that in today’s society, but in the 60’s it was a different story.)

The tattoo was on her breast and the doctor suggested that she might also like ‘bigger’ breasts. So the most common plastic surgery procedure in America was born.

Before Timmie, the procedure needed a ‘Guinea Pig’ and that was a dog named Esmeralda. When Doctor Frank Gerow squeezed on a blood bag, he thought it resembled a woman’s breast so much, that he had the idea for implants. The implants were inserted under the skin of Esmeralda and lasted two weeks before the dog chewed the stiches.
