Baltimore Plastic Surgeon Now Offers Recently FDA-approved MemoryShape Breast Implants

    BALTIMORE, MD, April 08, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Adam Basner of The Plastic Surgery Center of Maryland now offers Mentor MemoryShape breast implants, which received approval by the US Food and Drug Administration in June, 2013. MemoryShape breast implants offer the advantage of a natural, teardrop shape combined with an advanced cohesive gel.

"We decided to offer the newly approved styles of MemoryShape because, for certain patients, they offer great advantages," said Dr. Adam Basner. "For women who have a naturally less optimal breast shape before breast augmentation, MemoryShape implants have the ability to augment and improve the shape of the breasts."

The teardrop silhouette of MemoryShape breast implants mimics the natural, tapered contour of a breast. The cohesive gel inside these implants is cross-linked to a greater extent than other silicone implants. This enhanced cross-linking results in firmer, unified silicone chains, which makes the breast implant more cohesive. The cohesive gel will maintain its shape even in the event of rupture, but still looks natural and feels youthfully firm.

The four newly approved MemoryShape styles provide breast reconstruction and augmentation patients with more options for implant width and height, also known as the projection of the implant. FDA approval was supported by a study of 3,637 patients. The study included all 5 styles of MemoryShape breast implants.
