Nowadays already other Hungarian implant distributors provide this service (Natrelle, Nagor, Polytech).
This system has also no guarantee for the rare incidents, if the implant can’t be used because it is defect, gets injured or will be simply dropped on the floor.Įarlier only the Hungarian representative of the MENTOR Company assured it for me with proper versatility and reliability that for each operation a surplus of any possible implant size and type was available all the time. In these times it was common (I never organized it that way) that the majority of plastic surgeons sent the patients to buy the planned implants, and only these two were available for the operation even when it turned out during the surgery, that the ideal size or type was something else.

I had no confidence in a promoter looking for market access for a new French implant, whom I asked for satisfying literature of professional experiences and he could only tell that I should simply “trust him”! It was also a standpoint for my choice, how good the support and information for patients was in comparison to others, and what the distributor service was like, meaning the provision of implant stocks for the plastic surgeon. I had no confidence in implants made of unverifiable Brazilian materials either in Brazil or in Germany, unlicensed sometimes in their own country or in other European countries, and never had confidence in the debated French implants. Their new Natrelle implants already have a lifetime exchange guarantee valid for implant shell rupture. By the summer of 2009 the production of the McGhan-CUI stopped, the Allergan company took over the product, the production of certain models discontinued, the manufacturing itself was placed to Costa Rica (but under the supervision of the FDA, government office of the USA), the guarantee and exchange of the previous implants became impossible. Regarding only the aspects of implant quality, only two brands came into question, the products of Mentor and of McGhan-CUI, which were the leading and competing companies of the US market. I have supposed that a good quality implant, which is safe even on the long run, will help my work. At that time I took the decision based on my previous experiences, on the comparison of the documentation of different products and my studies about the international experiences and publications.
Since 1996 I use exclusively (with rare unique exceptions) the breast implants manufactured by the Mentor Company.
