GC Aesthetics Ltd, one of the world’s leading producers of silicone implants has announced a brand new lifetime warranty on all GC Aesthetics’ breast implants¹.

With more than 3 million implants sold in the last 10 years² and long-term market experience and expertise, GC Aesthetics (GCA) is introducing a brand new lifetime warranty which provides additional coverage to show their commitment to patients and their wellbeing.

The previous GCA Comfort Guarantee provided free of charge implant replacements in the event of rupture or capsular contracture (Baker grade III or IV) post implantation surgery. This coverage will now be enhanced with the new GCA Comfort Plus warranty. 

The new warranty continues to provide free of charge implant replacements in the event of rupture or capsular contracture (Baker grade III or IV) post implantation surgery, and also now provides free, automatic and retrospective cover for BIA-ALCL (Breast Implant Associated-Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma) when clinically diagnosed by surgeons or other medically qualified professionals for products implanted since 1^st of January 2009.

In addition, in the case of a confirmed BIA-ALCL the new warranty could provide reimbursement of up to $3,000 towards the cost of necessary medical scan(s) and the cost of necessary surgery to remove the GC Aesthetics breast implant(s) and replace them with a more suitable GCA solution.

GC Aesthetics will replace breast implants with any model, size, or style from the significant range of GCA breast implants currently featured in their catalogue.

This warranty improvement is a significant additional benefit and provides additional coverage for patients with GC Aesthetics’ (Nagor or Eurosilicone) silicone gel-filled breast implants. Furthermore, the upgraded warranty is also key for plastic surgeons when deciding on the choice of implant to use based on a recent Global Market Research study³. 

During the last 10 years, there have been no cases of BIA-ALCL with GC Aesthetics’ smooth breast implants and a rate of less than 0.0007% with GC Aesthetics’ textured breast implants.⁴

The risk of developing BIA-ALCL in patients with breast implants is extremely rare, GCA recognises the need for patients and surgeons to have peace of mind and feel safe with their chosen products, which have been carefully developed by experts and are backed up by long-term clinical data⁵ . 

Manuela Schneider-Höfferer, PhD Chief Marketing Officer (CMO), said:

“Our employees are proud about the quality of our implants, our strong clinical data and long-term relationships with our customers and patients. Upgrading our warranty to a Comfort Plus Warranty is our way to continue to be a real for life partner for all our customers. Safety always comes first and providing confidence to our patients is essential”.

Regarding the importance of the GCA Comfort Plus warranty for both patients and physicians, who will both find reassurance from this update, Manuela commented: 

“For more than 40 years, GC Aesthetics through its Nagor and Eurosilicone brands has been a reliable partner in the Women Healthcare Aesthetic surgery domain. Every day we work closely with recognized surgeons and understand that the dialogue with their patients regarding BIA-ALCL is not always easy. The Comfort Plus Warranty will help both surgeons and patients to facilitate this communication by providing even more security, reliability and giving patients peace of mind.”

For more information regarding the GCA Comfort Plus warranty, both existing patients, physicians and those considering silicone implants can visit the GC Aesthetics website for the latest information and updates.

The Australian Therapeutic Good Administration (TGA) has released a public statement of the preliminary outcomes from its review of textured implants on July 11, 2019. The notice proposes certain actions the TGA may take in relation to textured implants used in Australia. GC Aesthetics is surprised about this public statement, given the overall very low occurrence rate of BIA-ALCL compared to other medical conditions. It is important to notice that no final decision has been taken at this stage. GCA, as well as other responsible manufacturers, are transparently communicating with TGA and stand by our robust data and clinically proven safety

GC Aesthetics’ implant safety has been proven through a number of large scale, long term prospective clinical studies in over 1000 patients, including the only two large scale prospective European study of breast implants with 10-year patient follow up. With over 3 million implants sold over the last 10 years across 70 countries GCA’s safety record is quite clear:

•   The global rate of BIA-ALCL associated with GCA textured implants is <0.0007%
•   The global rate of BIA-ALCL associated with GCA smooth implants is 0%

GCA is at the forefront of the industry with a prominent and permanent focus on patient safety. We will continue to closely monitor the incidence of BIA- ALCL and participate in collaborative global research. We also remain committed to transparency with our doctors and patients about this and any other safety concerns.

Yours sincerely,

Dublin, Ireland – June 20, 2019 – GC Aesthetics, Inc. (GCA), a privately-held medical technology company providing aesthetic solutions for global healthcare markets, announced today that the Company will be launching two new products.

The first product, Eve 4.0, will be launched at the 39 th Paulista Plastic Surgery Journey Conference that is taking place from June 19-22, 2019 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Eve 4.0 is a proprietary Digital Consultation Solution (DCS) allowing augmented reality visualization that offers a unique experience for patients who are considering either breast augmentation or reconstruction. The Eve 4.0 uses the latest software technologies available to the medical technology industry to do a breast simulation, allowing physicians and their patients to see how they will look after surgery, thus reducing patient uncertainty and making breast surgery an easier decision between physician and patient. GCA can be found at Booth 46 at the 39th Paulista Plastic Surgery Journey Conference at the Hyatt Hotel convention center in Sao Paulo. On June 20 at 10:30 local time, a live demonstration of Eve 4.0 is planned to take place at the booth and will also be livestreamed on GCA’s social media channels. Following the conference, Eve 4.0 will be rolled out in Europe and Brazil.

In parallel with the launch of Eve 4.0, GCA will also be launching the Noa recovery compression solutions in Europe. Noa is a FDA- approved, medical-grade compression solution that incorporates a patented 3D compression system. The healing process after procedures that cause trauma to the body has been shown to last on average 12 weeks, during which the body requires proper support to heal. The GCA Noa product family are easy to get on, are designed for comfort and healing immediately following surgery and have been shown to help reduce swelling and pain, to control moisture in order to prevent infection, and to allow the patient to move easily and to also sleep comfortably. The initial roll out of the Noa product will be in Germany, the United Kingdom, Spain, and Italy and progressively will be extended into additional geographies where GCA has a presence.

“As a global market leader with over 30 years of experience in medical aesthetics, GCA is passionate about moving the industry forward through innovation and extraordinary customer experiences,”

commented Carlos Reis Pinto, Chief Executive Officer at GC Aesthetics.

“These products represent the evolution of GCA to expanding beyond being only an implant manufacturer and to becoming a true partner to our surgeon and their patients providing solutions throughout their journey.”

GC Aesthetics (GCA) announced today that data from a European clinical study of over 500 women implanted with the GC Aesthetics’ Eurosilicone breast implants was published online on the April 27, 2019 in Aesthetic Surgery Journal Open Forum. The study, titled “Ten-Year Safety Data for Eurosilicone’s Round and Anatomical Silicone Gel Breast Implants,” looked at Eurosilicone’s Cristalline Paragel gel-filled mammary implants when used in breast augmentation and reconstructive surgery and is the largest long-term European study conducted to date on breast implants.

“The results of this long-term study are among the best in the industry,” said Professor Franck Duteille, MD, Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery at University Hospital in Nantes and Principle Investigator of the study. “The endpoints were achieved and can be observed through the low complication rates for capsular contracture and rupture, as well as through the low number of patients who experienced local complications such as haematoma, seroma and infection.”

Study participants received GC Aesthetics’ Eurosilicone textured mammary implants for primary (423 women) and revision (103 women) surgeries in 17 centers throughout France. Complications were recorded at 3 months and annually thereafter for 10 years.

The 10-year outcomes show Kaplan-Meier risk estimates for patients in the primary augmentation cohort as:

• 4.9% rupture
• 13.8% capsular contracture (Baker Grade III & IV)

“The results obtained from this large scale European clinical study of our textured breast implants confirms GC Aesthetics’ 30-year commitment to continually delivering safe, innovative technologies to our customers, demonstrated through independent clinical research and daily support provided by our dedicated employees,” commented Carlos Reis Pinto, Chief Executive Officer of GC Aesthetics. “In addition to this exciting data, we are awaiting approval to start another long-term European clinical study on our smooth breast implants. We are working collaboratively with partners across the industry as we remain focused on patient safety and care.”

Breast Augmentation is the most popular cosmetic surgery treatment in the world. As the number of augmentations continues to rise, safety has never been more important. With a strong commitment to setting the ‘Gold Standard’ in care, quality and safety for patients and surgeons alike, GC Aesthetics, a global leader in the medical aesthetics space, is conducting a 10-year long-term clinical study into the safety of the implants expertly produced by one of their brands, Eurosilicone.

This is the eight-year interim results update of this ten-year prospective clinical study which reviewed the safety and performance of Eurosilicone’s breast implants at 17 private and university hospitals in France. In total, 526 women were involved in the study, in a total of 995 implants. This study was recently published in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal. Eurosilicone’s results demonstrated a very high safety rate. With a rupture rate of less than 2% and a reoperation rate of 3.6%, the findings were shown to be lower than the nine-year study reported by other breast implant manufacturers. 

Ayse Kocak, CEO of GC Aesthetics comments,

“As a global leader in the breast implant space, GC Aesthetics is committed to defining and upholding the ‘Gold Standard’ when it comes to safety, care and quality. I believe this study is the largest prospective study of breast implants in Europe. We thrive on delivering the best possible products, and the results of the eight-year study further demonstrate our very high safety rate which should give our surgeons and their patients further peace of mind.Whilst we are delighted to see these results, we will continue to use these findings to help further enhance our services and products to ensure we offer the very best to both surgeons and patients.”
