This trial follows women who get their first breast implant surgery or a repeat (primary vs secondary) and records side effects and how satisfied they feel. It aims to better understand safety and satisfaction with smooth-surface silicone implants.
This study looks at side effects and satisfaction after breast implant surgery. It may help by sharing what problems happen most and how satisfied people feel after getting a Silimed® textured or Silimed foam-coated implant.
This study looks at a problem called seroma, which is fluid buildup, after certain breast surgeries. It compares different situations where implants or tissue expanders are used, to better understand what to expect and how to manage it.
This study follows women who receive Euromi Biosciences silicone gel breast implants during either breast reconstruction after mastectomy or cosmetic breast surgery. It aims to see how the implants perform over 10 years.
This Phase 2 study looks at whether changes in the body’s “microbiome” (the normal germs in and on the body) are linked to infections after breast surgery with implants. It may help doctors better predict and prevent implant infections in people undergoing mastectomy with immediate implant placement.
This study looks at whether a specific way of caring for surgical drains can lower infection rates and improve quality of life after breast reconstruction with a tissue expander. You may be asked to follow the study’s drain-care steps during recovery.
