From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

MyFreeImplants is a crowdfunding website that provides a platform for women to raise funds for cosmetic surgery procedures, specifically breast augmentation. The site was launched in 2005 by Jay Moore and Jason Grunstra. The website has been the subject of controversy and criticism, with some arguing that it exploits women, while others maintain that it provides a valuable service.

History[edit | edit source]

Jay Moore and Jason Grunstra launched MyFreeImplants in 2005. The idea for the site came about after Grunstra's girlfriend expressed a desire for breast augmentation but could not afford the procedure. The two men decided to create a website where women could raise the funds needed for such surgeries.

Operation[edit | edit source]

Women who wish to raise funds on MyFreeImplants create a profile on the site and interact with donors. Donors purchase "chat credits" which they can use to communicate with the women. The women then receive a portion of the money spent on these credits, which they can put towards their surgery. The website also offers a "wish list" feature, where women can list specific items they would like to receive as gifts.

Criticism and controversy[edit | edit source]

MyFreeImplants has been criticized for exploiting women and for promoting a narrow and potentially harmful ideal of beauty. Critics argue that the site encourages women to alter their bodies in order to appeal to men, and that it commodifies women's bodies. The site has also been accused of being a thinly veiled escort service.

Despite these criticisms, the site's founders maintain that MyFreeImplants provides a valuable service. They argue that the site gives women who cannot afford cosmetic surgery the opportunity to achieve their desired appearance, and that it provides a safe and supportive community for women seeking breast augmentation.
