Breast implants

About the right choice of breast implants

Different implants for breast augmentation are made using different materials and different shapes.

Shapes

The available shapes are round and contoured (drop-shaped).

Cover and interior

The cover and the interior of the implant are composed of slightly different materials; the cover is made from a particularly resistant silicon. After decades of use, silicone filled implants have proven to be the best and by far the most used implants worldwide. Some refinements such as to the textured surface and the new cohesive silicon have contributed to this development.

Surface

The textured surface represents an important factor of quality. It improves the stability of the implant (reducing the risk of complications) and leads to better comfort and higher safety for the woman.

Frequent question: How dangerous is a Capsule Contracture ?

A mild capsule contracture occurs fairly frequently with breast implants. Depending upon the individual, the probability of a mild CC with modern implants is between 5-10%. A corrective operation is needed only in exceptional cases (in 1-2% of patients).
