During Breast Expansion
The proprietary BufferZone™ Self-Sealing Patch and the posterior Dacron Patch focus breast expansion towards the lower pole of the breast.9
The BufferZone™ Self-Sealing Patch surrounds the integral injection dome to protect at least 50% more of the expander surface area (than the injection dome alone) from accidental needle puncture to minimize and/or prevent device leakage and the need for additional surgery.10
