Breast Implant Warranty Info
When you have surgery, your implants are included as part of the quote we give you. We personally order them in for you once
we have measured you and helped you chose the right implants for you. You will receive, at no additional cost from the implant
company, a lifetime replacement warranty (for the replacement cost of the implant itself) in case of a rupture. You may also
purchase additional coverage with either company.
