Are Polytech implants safe?
Are Polytech implants safe?
Recent studies have shown that POLYTECH Microthane® implants are a safe choice for both primary breast augmentation and 2-stage breast reconstruction, and have lower complications even in case of radiation treatment, which is known to dramatically increase the risk of capsular contracture.
Who manufactures gummy bear breast implants?
Allergan
There are three breast implant companies—Sientra, Mentor and Allergan—who all manufacture FDA-approved gummy bear breast implants.
Can smooth implants cause BIA-ALCL?
The risk of BIA-ALCL is higher for textured surface implants versus smooth surface implants. Certain other textured breast products, specifically certain textured tissue expanders, should not be used, and we have issued new recommendations for patients who have or have had these products.
Are Nagor implants FDA approved?

Where does protease occur in the natural world?
Protease occurs throughout the natural world, but extraction from plants and animals is the primary method of obtaining protease commercially; fermentation typically produces bacterial and fungal proteases. [7]
What does protease do in our products?
What Does Protease Do in Our products? Protease is often used as a skin conditioner to remove dry skin flakes, which is why it can be found in personal care products such as facial cleanser or makeup remover, but it is also common in laundry detergents and presoak products because it helps remove protein stains. [3,4,5,6]
How are plant proteases different from bacterial peptidases?
However, the finding and use of plant proteases have several advantages compared to bacterial and fungal peptidases; they are natural components of harmless food and, unlike the fungal proteases, their safety must not be proven with potential benefits for both therapeutics and food processing ( Comino et al., 2013 ).
Why are plant proteases important to seed germination?
Moreover, plant proteases play a crucial role in the plant seed germination, through the mobilization of other proteins accumulated in seeds and cereal grains ( Grudkowska and Zagdańska, 2004; Cambra et al., 2012; Diaz-Mendoza et al., 2016; Szewinska et al., 2016; Liu et al., 2018; Radchuk et al., 2018 ).
