Considering Breast Implants

Recently there are more and more women who want to use Breast Implants for enhancing their breast size. There is nothing wrong with small breast of course but many women want to enhance their appearance and self confidence by having bigger breast. There are even women with large enough breast who are not satisfied with their breast so they take the surgery procedure for breast enhancement. There are many things which should be considered about Breast Implants before they take this big decision.


The very first thing which should be considered is about the option of Breast Implants. Nowadays, people will be offered with two options of implants. There are implants which are filled with silicone gel and saline. Both have the same function for enhancing the breast size but there are some different specifications which can be found from both options. It is necessary to understand about the difference of both Breast Implants before making decision to choose one.

Breast Implants which are filled with saline and silicone gel basically comes with outer shell which is made from silicone. However, the difference can be found in the material as well as consistency. Saline implants are implants which are filled with salt water in sterile condition. The shell is inserted in empty condition and the saline will be filled once the shells are in the correct place. This option of Breast Implants is available for breast reconstruction for women above 19 and breast augmentation.

The next option of Breast Implants is the silicone one. The shell is pre-filled with the thick and sticky fluid called silicone gel. It mimics the human fat feel so this implant option is considered as the implant which has the feel and look which is more similar with the natural tissue of breast. Besides for breast augmentation for 22 years old women and older, this Breast Implants option is also used for breast reconstruction.

Of course women do not only need to consider about their purpose to improving their breast size when considering Breast Implants. They must not forget that there are some risks which can be found from taking this procedure for enhancing the breast size. Both Breast Implants options have similar risk including the scar tissue which can distort the breast implant shape. There are still other risks which can be experienced by women including the infection, breast pain, and temporary change in breast and nipple sensation. Women should also be aware about the biggest risk, rupture or implant leakage.
