1 year of TIGR® Matrix in the breast – on show at “Beauty Through Science”

Beauty through Science is an established international annual meeting for aesthetic medicine, with a growing number of participants year on year for eleven consecutive years. The BTS meeting is again being held at the Stockholm Waterfront Conference Center and will attract more than 700 plastic surgeons from around the globe.

“Our participation at Beauty through Science was never in question”, says Henrik Hjort, Product Manager and co-inventor of TIGR® Matrix. “This is an exceptionally well organized event with many attendees who are at the forefront of plastic surgery. It is scientific, it is innovative and it is international - the perfect stage for TIGR® Matrix and Novus Scientific”.

Novus Scientific are currently involved in a clinical collaboration on aesthetic breast revision surgery, with BTS host Akademikliniken, and will be showcasing TIGR® Matrix, the world’s first long-term resorbable synthetic surgical mesh alongside other exciting 1 year data from the United States. TIGR® Matrix is the premiere choice when it comes to soft tissue reinforcement in plastic aesthetic and reconstructive surgery. Being used extensively in breast revision surgery, breast reconstruction and post bariatric body contouring, TIGR® Matrix gives surgeons an alternative to expensive biologic matrices or permanent plastic materials and its value has been realized by private and public plastic surgeons world-wide.
