Silimed Industria de Implantes Ltda384 enrolled

Overview

The study investigates the safety and performance of Silimed® brand smooth surface breast implants in women born with indication for primary and secondary (revision) augmentation to be followed up for 10 years. The safety of the smooth-surfaced Silimed® implant will be evaluated by estimating known and unexpected short-term and long-term risk/adverse event rates through patient reports of adverse events after implantation. The performance of using Silimed® brand smooth surface breast implants will be evaluated by evaluating satisfaction and quality of life after implantation.
