Important Safety Information
Mentor MemoryGel® breast implants are indicated for breast augmentation in women who are at least 22 years old or for breast reconstruction. Breast implant surgery should not be performed in women with active infection anywhere in their body, with existing cancer or pre-cancer of their breast who have not received adequate treatment for those conditions or are pregnant or nursing. There are risks associated with breast implant surgery. Breast implants are not lifetime devices and breast implantation is likely not a one-time surgery. You may need additional unplanned surgeries on your breasts because of complications or unacceptable cosmetic outcomes. Many of the changes to your breast following implantation are irreversible (cannot be undone) and breast implants may affect your ability to breastfeed, either by reducing or eliminating milk production. The most common complications with MemoryGel® breast implants include reoperation, capsular contracture, asymmetry, and breast pain. A lower risk of complication is implant rupture, which is most often silent (meaning neither you nor your doctor will know you have a rupture). The health consequences of a ruptured silicone gel-filled breast implant have not been fully established. MRI screenings are recommended three years after initial implant surgery and then every two years after to detect silent rupture. Detailed information regarding the indications, contraindications, warnings, precautions and the risks and benefits associated with Mentor MemoryGel® breast implants are provided in two brochures available from your surgeon (Important Information for Augmentation Patients about Mentor MemoryGel® Silicone Gel-Filled Breast Implants and Important Information for Reconstruction Patients about Mentor MemoryGel® Silicone Gel-Filled Breast Implants) or on line at www.mentorcorp.com. It is important that you read and understand this information when considering Mentor breast implants prior to deciding on surgery.
