The Two Main Types Of Breast Implants

By Scott White


A type of process in prosthesis that involves the changing of contour, size, and shape of breasts is called as a breast implant. Fore reconstructive plastic surgeries, these breast implants are being placed to be able to do some restoration in the breasts, thus, will make it look natural. Usually, these are being applied to those patients who previously undergone the process of mastectomy or for people whom the chest walls have some deformities or congenital defects.

The devices being utilized for a breast implant are categorized into 3 different groups which include composite filler, saline solution, and silicone gel. But for the breast implants Michigan, two of these most common types are utilized for procedures done in a breast augmentation, mammoplasty, and breast reconstruction. And these types are the silicone implant, filled with gels, and a saline solution, filled with saline solution.

In Michigan, saline solution is one type that used mostly by surgeons for prosthesis procedures using the devices for breasts augmentation. And the reason for this is due to the restrictions provided by FDA regarding on the usage of silicone filled implants. This process has a technical goal of making a technique which is lesser invasive for a surgery when emplacing empty device with a small surgical incision.

For a surgical praxis, when the implants are already emplaced in the pockets, each device will then be filled by the surgeon with the saline solution. Since the insertion incisions are required to be short and be small, the result of incision scars surely would be shorter and smaller as well compared to the usual surgical scars with long incisions which are required for the insertion of gel.

Thus, if this is to be compared to the silicone gel type, this is going to yield more acceptable results for increasing the size, making it smoother and has hemisphere contour, and also has realistic texture. However, it may also have some side effects such as causing some cosmetic problems. These problems may include rippling and wrinkling of envelope skins, and accelerated lower pole stretch.

Other problems on this are the technical problems that would include the implants presence, thus, making it visible to eyes and can be felt when touched. The cosmetic problems would most likely occur only when a woman has little tissues. For women who have previous experiences on post mastectomy, the use of silicone gels are suggested for the prosthetic devices in both breasts augmentation and reconstruction.

However, being one of the medical device technologies, the gels implant has five generations. Each generation is being defined by some common techniques for model manufacturing. The first one is made from rubber envelope sac. Its shape is similar to a teardrop and is filled with silicone gels. In order to reduce the emplacement rotation on chest wall, this is affixed into the pocket using the fastener patch.

Second one is featuring the aesthetic improvements and the functional developments of the product. The third and the fourth generations are the sequential advances of manufacturing technology. The technologies may include the shells coated with elastomer for the decrease in gel bleed and also a thicker filler gel.

And in fifth generation, a high strength cohesive gel is used. This will eliminate filler leakage occurrences. And also, eliminates silicone filler migrations in pockets. Another term for these implants is gummy bear breasts implant since the features are very similar to gummy bears.
