Study Summary

The study investigates the safety and performance of Silimed® silicone gel breast implants with a textured surface and Silimed® silicone gel breast implants with polyurethane coated surface. Female patients who underwent primary or secondary breast augmentation using Silimed® breast implants will be followed-up through 10 years. The safety of each type of Silimed® breast implant is going to be assessed by estimating the known and unexpected short- and long-term risk / adverse event rates. The performance of each type of Silimed® breast implant is going to be assesses by estimating the satisfaction and quality of life after implantation.
