The 2 Main Types Of The Breast Implants

By Scott White


The breast implant is one type of prosthesis process which is being used in order to make some changes on the shape, contour, and size of the breasts. For the reconstructive plastic surgeries, the breast implants are placed in order to do the restoration of breasts, making it look more natural. These are often applied to patients who have undergone mastectomy or for chest walls that have congenital defects or deformities.

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, one type which is used commonly for the prosthesis process by most of the devices is saline solution for a breasts augmentation. It is because a silicone filled type of implant is being restricted now by FDA because of some specific reasons. The technical goal of this is to make a more less invasive type of technique in surgery for emplacement of an empty device by small surgical incisions.

In surgical praxis, whenever the implants will be emplaced already inside pockets, the devices would be filled in by surgeons with saline solutions. Because insertion incisions were being required to become short and small, incision results of scars for sure are shorter and are smaller if compared to those usual scars in surgeries having longer incisions that are required for gel insertion.

Thus, when this is being compared to silicone gel types, it will surely be yielding much acceptable results specifically for an increase in size, and thus, it becomes smoother and also has a hemisphere contour and its texture becomes realistic. However, the patient may also be experiencing the side effects like having cosmetic problems. The problems would include wrinkling and rippling the envelope skins, and the lower pole stretches will be accelerated.

Aside from cosmetic problems, people may also be facing technical problems which include the visibility of implants and this would mean that it can be seen easily and felt if touched. Usually, cosmetic problems may occur only when a particular woman has a lesser number of tissues. Women who have undergone a post mastectomy are suggested to be implanted with silicone gels using prosthetic devices for both reconstruction and augmentation processes.

However, the gels, as one type of a medical device technology, has 5 generations. Each of this generation can be defined by specific techniques in model manufacturing. First generation is made of rubber envelope sac. The shape is the same as to a teardrop and filled in with silicone gels. For a reduction of emplacement rotation on the chest wall, it will be affixed to pockets by using fastener patches.

In second generation, a products functional development and aesthetic improvement are both featured. In third generation and fourth generation, sequential advancements of the manufacturing technology are focused. These would include elastomer coated shells so that gel bleed will decrease and will also have thicker filler gel.

Lastly, the fifth one is made of high cohesive and strength gel. Mostly, the filler leakage occurrence is eliminated by this. And also, silicone filler migration from the pocket is eliminated. Considered to be similar with gummy candies, implants can be called as the gummy bear breasts implant.
