SANTA BARBARA, Calif.– Establishment Labs Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: ESTA), a medical technology company focused on women’s health, initially in the breast aesthetics and reconstruction market, today announced that it has entered into a $225 million term loan financing facility with funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management, L.P.
