With the "potential" of silicone particulates being in the product, these silicone particulates could cause serious health issues if the "foreign material" reaches the person's blood vessels.

Officials also stated that "if the particulate matter reaches the blood vessels it can travel to various organs and block blood vessels in the heart, lungs or brain which can cause stroke and even lead to death."
