Breast Mesh Lawsuit
At Flint Cooper, we are committed to upholding the rights of individuals who have suffered unexpected and serious complications following breast surgery involving mesh or “internal bra” devices. A growing number of patients who underwent reconstruction, augmentation or lift procedures have reported severe outcomes linked to these materials, including infections, tissue damage, implant loss and long-term deformities.
If you have suffered unexpected pain, complications or revision surgeries after a breast procedure, you may qualify for financial compensation.
Mesh used in breast reconstruction and augmentation surgeries is marketed as a safe, long-term solution, yet many patients are never fully informed of the risks. When these products lead to complications requiring revision surgeries, that failure in patient safety cannot be ignored.

What Is Breast Mesh?
Breast mesh is a surgical material implanted inside the chest to reinforce breast tissue, support implants or stabilize the breast shape during reconstruction or cosmetic procedures. Surgeons have used two main types:
- Biologic Mesh – Made from processed human or animal tissue. Designed to permanently integrate into the body.
- Synthetic Mesh – Made from dissolvable polymers. Intended to provide early strength and gradually absorb.
These devices were marketed as a long-term internal support system, sometimes as an “internal bra.” But many patients experienced the opposite, including: worsening symptoms, infections, deformities and reconstruction failure.
Who May Qualify for a Breast Mesh Lawsuit
You may qualify for a claim if:
Qualifications:
- You had an implant of mesh product in “internal bra” surgery:
- Reconstruction (due to mastectomy);
- Augmentation or reduction (cosmetic); or
- Breast lift (cosmetic).
- Revision surgery is done, scheduled or being discussed with your doctor due to complications from the mesh (or the implants, if unknown that mesh is the cause or was implanted).
- If you are unsure if breast mesh was used but have had a revision surgery, the have a revision surgery scheduled or have been discussing a revision surgery with your doctor.
- You have suffered from complications such as:
- Nerve damage
- Infection/abscess
- Seroma
- Migration/displacement
- Explant
- Reconstruction Failure
- Implant Rupture
- Interference with breast imaging
Many people learn they have a case only after requesting their operative reports and discovering mesh was used without their knowledge or without being told the risks.
You may still qualify even if your surgeon never told you mesh was implanted.
