Deflations can now be corrected with a
saline breast implant of a different
size or style. (Any price differential
is the responsibility of the patient).
|
|
|
Saline breast implant deflations may be
upgraded to silicone-filled breast
implants if patients qualify under a
Inamed Aesthetics clinical study.
(Again, any price differential is the
responsibility of the patient).
|
|
|
Patients who were implanted with
saline-filled breast implants after May
31, 1993 or with silicone-filled breast
implants sold and implanted after
September 30, 1997, are now covered
under this new Improved ConfidencePlus™
Program. |
These exciting changes, combined with these
existing program features, make the
ConfidencePlus™ Program better than ever:
|
|
10 year financial assistance period with
up to $1,200 per surgery for surgical
fees not covered by insurance. |
|
|
10 year financial assistance period
renewed with each implant replacement. |
|
|
Lifetime unlimited free breast implant
replacement for deflations. |
|
|
10 year no charge surgical fee, for Dr.
Scroggins patient's. If you have a
deflation and you come back to Dr.
Scroggins to replace your deflation and
you are not adding to your surgery, the
surgical expense will be covered under
this warranty. |
The Inamed Aesthetics ConfidencePlus™ Program,
the most comprehensive breast implant
replacement program, is now even better!
