Inamed Breast Implants Information
The Inamed Company has a long history or manufacturing silicone products for a variety of industries. Formerly known as McGhan Medical, the company changed names in 1986, after having an association with 3M Corp.
Allergan now owns the company completely, after a purchase in March of 2006. Supported by its large new parent corporation, the innovation, variety and quality of the breast implants produced by Inamed continues to grow year by year.

Round and anatomically shaped implants are available; as are smooth and BioCell textured outer shell surfaces.
Many implant varieties are offered in a full range of profiles, which make the implant truly customizable for each individual patient’s needs.
In addition, every augmentation recipient is granted a terrific benefit package called the ConfidencePlus breast implant warranty. This program guarantees that the implant will be replaced if it fails at any time and the surgical fees will be reimbursed up to $1200 for a period of 10 years following breast enlargement surgery.
For a small one time fee of $100, patients can upgrade to the ConfidencePlus Platinum Warranty, which increases the surgical benefit covered up to $2400.
Complimentary contralateral implants are available upon surgeon’s request, through both programs.
