I underwent breast augmentation (BA) four weeks ago, receiving 450 silicone Mentor implants. Overall, the procedure was successful, although I'm experiencing some nerve pain. I'm considering whether I should pay for the extended warranty. While $200 may not seem like much compared to the $8,200 I paid for the procedure, I'm curious if the free warranty provided is sufficient.
I recommend this to my patients as it provides peace of mind over the lifetime of the implants in case of any issues.
Thank you for your question. When my patients inquire about purchasing the warranty through Mentor, my answer is always yes! Cosmetic procedures can be costly, and Mentor is a reputable company that stands behind their products. Although their implants are durable and reliable, unexpected issues can arise after surgery. Having the warranty provides peace of mind, knowing that if the implants need to be replaced or if additional surgery is required, Mentor will offer financial assistance in replacing the implants.
It is generally recommended to purchase implant warranty for future protection against potential problems, including capsular contracture. Some warranties cover implant replacement and may provide additional compensation for the procedure.
