Are all breast implants created equal?

Oct 28

Generally speaking, all saline implants are made of a silicone shell with a filling valve, for the injection of the saline solution during your surgery. To better meet each woman’s individual needs, breast implants come in a variety of different shapes and sizes.

Round breast implants are round in design. They enhance breast size, and may produce a more rounded appearance to the upper portion of the breast.

Anatomical or shaped breast implants are designed to reflect the slope of the breast. Because of its upper area gently sloping downward and outward, the shaped breast implant is more likely to shape the upper part of the breast with a gentle slope.

Saline-filled breast implants are available in a wide variety of sizes to specifically match your body type. Depending on the look you desire, you may prefer one type of breast implant over the other. Let Dr. Niessen help you decide which breast implant is appropriate for you.
