Additional Manufacturer Narrative
A photo of the device was returned for evaluation.The evaluation was completed on feb 27, 2026.Photo evaluation summary: upon visual evaluation of the images provided in the complaint no apparent damage or visual anomalies were observed.As the product involved in this complaint was discarded, the device could not be analyzed according to our procedures.Some breast ptosis is a normal component of the mature breast.Ptosis becomes undesirable when the breast parenchyma predominates below the areola, droops considerably below the inframammary fold and the nipple points downward.Augmentation alone, without consideration of the ptosis can produce a less than desirable cosmetic result known as a ¿¿rock in sock¿¿ deformity or an increased ptotic appearance.Ptosis is a known complication associated with these devices and is referenced in our current product insert data sheet.As part of mentor¿s quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released according to approved specifications.Based on the results of this investigation, it was determined that the product met the manufacturing release criteria.Manufacturer¿s reference number: (b)(4).
