10-year warranty on all breast implants at Wellness Kliniek.
Every European manufacturer of CE-labelled breast implants provides a 10-year guarantee should a breast implant (prosthesis) rupture (without any external cause). This guarantee therefore ensures that your breast implants are insured against wall damage for 10 years. A crack must be demonstrated with an MRI scan to enjoy the manufacturer's warranty.
It is important to know that the cost of repair surgery to replace the implants at Wellness Kliniek, for 3 years, is also covered under the warranty. It's nice to know that at Wellness Kliniek, you are extra insured for the recovery surgery at the clinic.
