About this trial

Prospective, randomized, controlled study to assess the safety and effectiveness of GalaFLEX LITE™ Scaffold in revision surgery for reduction of capsular contracture recurrence and/or malposition in implant-based breast augmentation patients versus patients undergoing conventional revision surgery with no supportive matrix or acellular dermal matrix (ADM). Subjects will be randomized 2:1 to receive either GalaFLEX LITE™ Scaffold or standard care (no ADM or matrix placement). This study is designed using an adaptive approach. The number of the treated breasts will range between 250 and 530.
