It is a high-technology biological mesh made of poly-4-hydroxybutyrate. Its purpose is to provide support by reinforcing breast tissue during a breast lift or breast augmentation with implants.
It functions as an internal bra that keeps the breasts in place, providing resistance throughout the healing period. Once fully absorbed after about 14 months, it leaves behind tissue that is 3–4 times stronger than native breast tissue. This adds support and helps keep the breasts beautiful and well-positioned for longer.
GalaFLEX™ mesh is strategically placed during a breast lift surgery to encompass breast tissue and provide better structure and support. During breast augmentation with implants, it supports the implant to reduce load on the tissues and prevent early sagging.
As the body absorbs the GalaFLEX™ mesh, it naturally integrates with the patient's tissue, providing an internal support system that is 3–4 times stronger than the breast’s native tissues.
Patients can enjoy lifted and firm breasts for an extended period. The effect can last for years, depending on individual patient characteristics. However, it is vital to maintain realistic expectations and consider that factors such as aging, gravity, breast weight, and others will continue to affect breast appearance.
