Breast Implants Types
In today’s cosmetic industry, there are two types of breast implants. What type is suitable for you depends on your aesthetic goals, implants cost, and reason to get the implants (cosmetic or breast reconstruction surgery). Dr. Azouz explains the pros and cons of each one, so you know accurately which one can provide the best result for your body structure.
Saline Breast Implant:
- Saline-filled implants are approved for women at least 18 years old.
- They are inserted empty and filled with sterile salt water.
- Saline implants might last from 10 to 15 years.
- The incision site is smaller and less noticeable.
- Some people say that saline implants feel more firm than natural breast tissue.
- In case of rupture, the water is absorbed by the body.
Silicone Breast Implants:
- Silicone implants are approved for women at least 22 years old.
- Silicone texture feels like human fat and feels more natural.
- There are regular silicone implants and more cohesive silicone implants known as gummy bear.
- Regular silicone implants create a fuller look.
- Gummy bear implants can be formed into an anatomical shape.
- Silicone implants’ rupture can go undetected. A MRI is recommended to check for ruptures.
- If ruptures occur, silicone implants need to be removed immediately.
