Breast Implants Are Prostheses Used To Alter The Size, Shape, And Contour Of A Person's Breast

 

Breast Implants

A Breast Implant is a prosthetic substance used to enlarge the breasts of a person. Usually, breast augmentation or reconstruction treatments employ these implants. With over 300,000 breast augmentation procedures carried out annually in the United States, breast implant surgery is currently the most prevalent cosmetic procedure.

Medical devices called breast implants are used to:

·        enlarge the breasts (breast augmentation)

·        modify or improve breast asymmetry or appearance

·        after a surgical procedure, such as a mastectomy, reconstruct the breasts

·        replacement of current implants

There are various implant types of Breast Implants.

You should discuss the following with your doctor or surgeon:

·        which implant kind is ideal for you

·        If you have implants but are unsure about their type

·        Silicone is used for the outer shell of breast implants. These shells might either have a smooth surface or one that is textured. Implants that are textured might have a surface that is either barely textured (micro-textured) or heavily textured (macro-textured).

Saline solution (sterile salt water) or silicone gel can be used to fill breast implants. Saline implants and silicone Breast Implants are the two main types of breast implants available today. Other fillers, such as soy oil, were used in implants in the past, but this type of implant has already been phased out.

Breast Implants known as saline implants are constructed of silicone and filled with a particular saline solution. Saline Implants have the significant benefit of requiring a far smaller incision for insertion than pre-filled silicone implants. The solution is then injected into the pockets that have been formed in the breasts, followed by the placement of the implants. Saline implants also have the benefit of generally being safer in the event of a leak. Saline breast implants, on the other hand, have a tendency to cause more cosmetic problems than silicone implants, specifically, wrinkling and irregularities of the skin over the breast. Saline implants also have a tendency to be more noticeable and palpable than their silicone counterparts, particularly in women with small breasts.

On the other hand, Silicone Implants are breast implants that have a silicone shell and gel inside. The key benefit of these implants over saline implants is that they feel and look more natural. Due to an increase in complaints of silicone gel leaking, the FDA once placed restrictions on the use of silicone implants in medicine. However, this issue has already been reduced thanks to newer generation silicone implants. Today's silicone Breast Implants are known to have minimal risks of implant shell rupture and capsule contracture. Silicone breast implants are currently thought to be both safe and technically simple to implant.
