Dr Gray attended training in Las Vegas, Nevada for an FDA trial of Mentor adjustable silicone implants, the first adjustable silicone implant to be brought to the market. Dr. Gray was one of 30 plastic surgeons selected across the entire United States to participate. Selection of the surgeons was based on national reputation, certification of the surgeon’s facility and previous participation in 6 other previous trials: 2 with Mentor, 2 with Allergan and 2 with Silimed corporations.
This implant offers better control for breast symmetry and the implant size can be adjusted for up to 6 months after surgery. Participants will be paid $2200 for their involvement. Implants are guaranteed and patients will have MRI’s to check implant integrity at no cost to the patient. Dr. Gray has 10 patient spots available for the core study. Patients who are interested should call as soon as possible. There may be additional patient slots for a continued access study at a later time.
