Do Breast Implants Have Warranties?

When most people think about breast augmentation or breast reconstruction, implant warranty is the last thing on their minds. But considering that breast implants are not lifetime devices and may need to be replaced at some point, implant warranties can be very beneficial if breast revision surgery is needed.

I perform breast augmentation and reconstruction using Allergan’s Natrelle® breast implants, which come in the industry’s widest range of safe and high-quality implant styles. All of the implants consist of an outer silicone shell filled with either a silicone gel or a saline (saltwater) solution, and this outer shell can be either smooth or textured. The implants may be round or teardrop-shaped and come in a variety of projection styles and filler consistencies. For example, the Natrelle® 410 (also known as “gummy bear”) breast implants are filled with a form-stable, highly cohesive silicone gel that are anatomically designed in a teardrop shape to resemble the breasts’ natural curves. During your consultation, I will help determine what would be the best implant to suit your desired outcome.

Allergan offers the following warranties on their (Natrelle®) implants:

Lifetime Product Replacement

In the case of an implant rupture or deflation due to loss of the integrity of the implant shell at any time, breast revision surgery can be performed to correct it and Allergan will provide a new implant to replace the damaged one. You may request any Natrelle® implant size or style for your replacement, although a charge may apply for implants with a higher list price.
