Mentor Announces U.S. Availability For MemoryGel Xtra Breast Implants

October 19, 2017 By Mentor Worldwide LLC

Mentor Worldwide LLC, a global leader in breast aesthetics, today announced the availability of its MemoryGel Xtra Breast Implants in the United States. MENTOR MemoryGel Xtra is the only breast implant on the market which allows for increased projection, fullness and firmness without losing the soft, natural feel patients desire.

“I’m excited to provide my patients with the latest breast implant option from MENTOR,” said Dr. Louis Strock, American Board of Plastic Surgery, Diplomate. “MemoryGel Xtra Breast Implants offer a rare combination of a more tight feel while maintaining an overall natural softness.”

In a recent blinded brand comparison, nine out of 10 consumers chose MemoryGel Xtra implants as feeling more like natural (or real) breasts. Surgeons also chose MemoryGel Xtra implants as a product they would use more often at their practice.

“For more than 30 years, approximately 5 million women have chosen MENTOR breast implants as a safe and reliable option to achieve their desired outcome,” says Dr. John Canady, Franchise Medical Leader, Johnson & Johnson Medical Devices. “We’re always looking for ways to advance our products and meet the ever-evolving needs of our patients. The meaningful innovation of MemoryGel Xtra not only increases options for patients but also reinforces the MENTOR global leadership position in breast aesthetics.”

MENTOR MemoryGel Xtra breast implants were approved by the FDA in April 2017.

MENTOR also recently launched the ARTOURA Breast Tissue Expander line with a smooth shell in July 2017 throughout the U.S. This new option provides an alternative for surgeons who may prefer a smooth tissue expander.
