About the Breast Implant Follow-up Study (BIFS)
Power of One, Strength of Many
BIFS is an important research study. As a participant in BIFS, you agree to complete a questionnaire once a year. By fulfilling that commitment, you and the other 2,700 women who are a part of the BIFS community are contributing to the health and safety of all women with breast implants.
We’re in this together.
