Silicone Breast Implants by Mentor Back on the Market

Since 1994, silicone breast implants have been banned in Canada, but in the last year, Health Canada has allowed the silicone breast implants made by Mentor back onto the market.

Why has Mentor had such an impact on the market with their silicone implant?

Mentor spent a great deal of money on studies and clinical research. Their studies were extensive in nature and far beyond what was required. As a result, their data confirmed that silicone implants could be considered relatively safe.

Although Mentor has gained significant ground in the Canadian market, it is important to know that this license is conditional, leaving Mentor responsible for providing further data and evidence that their product is in fact safe.

In the US, the FDA wants this information to be obtained from clinical studies that are long term, and Mentor is required to include information on the labeling of the product and the advertising.

Mentor silicone breast implants are considered superior around the world. Cosmetic surgeons recognize them for their superior construction with no compromise to the natural look and feel of the implant.

The Mentor Memory Gel is very popular choice for silicone implants. Made from a cohesive gel, they sustain the natural feel and shape of the breast because of the wide range of firmness choices.

Many woman and surgeons prefer this implant because it has a superior aesthetic appearance compared to saline.

The key to choosing the right implant for your breast enhancement lies with you and your surgeon. Together you will discover the right choice for you. But the good news is, for those women who want silicone, it’s once again available.
