My breast augmentation was performed in 2007.Information gotten from the operative report indicate the brand of implant to be Inamed McGhan.I have recently had a sudden loss of fullness in the left breast with a deep burning sensation.I was wondering if there was in fact a warranty with this brand that might pay for a portion of replacent cost.
