Information for women considering polyurethane-coated breast implants…What are polyurethane-coated breast implants?
Micro-Polyurethane Surfaced (MPS) mammary implants, manufactured by Polytech Silimed Europe GmbH, consist of a silicone elastomer shell, filled with silicone gel. This design is similar to other silicone gel breast implants, except that the shell is coated with a polyurethane foam, intended to reduce the rate of capsular contracture.
