See Mentor's new breast implant

Dennis Hammond, MD from Grand Rapids, MI is one of the country's foremost breast implant experts. Below, you can see him showing off Mentor's form stable implant. Officially known as Contour Profile Gel implants, they retain their shape if ruptured.


From Dr. Hammond:

The CPG has been performing very well in both aesthetic and reconstructive breast surgery cases. The shapes satisfy the myriad of needs of a wide group of patients, in a simple and easy to use fashion. The Bodylogic system (Ed. Note: Mentor's breast implant sizing system) is easily applied to the use of these devices. Rotation is rare, rupture nearly unheard, and the results have been outstanding.:

These implants, as well as those from competitor Allergan, have been undergoing FDA testing, so as always, no word on when they will be available for use in the US. We'll be back in a few months with an update on these upcoming technologies.
