BioElectronics Corporation Begins Shipments of Next-Generation Breast Surgery Recovery Kits

FREDERICK, MD--(Marketwire - February 18, 2009) -

BioElectronics Corp. (PINKSHEETS: BIEL), the maker of inexpensive, disposable drug-free anti-inflammatory devices, today announced significant enhancements to its RecoveryRx™ breast surgery recovery kit. The product has been converted to a more efficient 12 cm loop design, which is even more effective than previous versions in reducing inflammation, bruising and pain following breast augmentation, lift or reduction. The product begins shipping immediately.

“Plastic surgeons are increasingly using our RecoveryRx product to speed healing and reduce pain following breast related cosmetic procedures. The new version of our product offers increased effectiveness in an enhanced form factor. We have received very positive reactions from our plastic surgeon customers who have come to rely on our products to help their patients recover faster with less pain,” commented Andrew Whelan, CEO of BioElectronics, Corp. “We believe the increased popularity of this device can be easily explained by the success of recent clinical trials which showed that 73% of women treated with this therapy reported less pain and discomfort compared to treatment with a placebo device. We cannot imagine any women going through breast surgery without the benefit of RecoveryRx treatment -- Why experience pain when there is an inexpensive and highly effective alternative?”
