During breast augmentation, we use implants to increase the size and volume of the breasts. The type and shape of your implants will largely impact your final results. When choosing your implants, Dr. Boudana will guide you through a detailed consultation and help determine which implant type and profile will be right for you. Below you can find more information that will help you when choosing your breast implants.

Implant types

There are two main types of breast implants for breast augmentation:

Saline implants: These are filled with sterile saltwater solution and can be adjusted for size during the surgery. If they leak, the body can safely absorb the saline.

Silicone implants: These are filled with a silicone gel that feels more like natural breast tissue. If they leak, the gel can stay in the implant pocket or leak into the breast tissue. Regular monitoring is recommended to detect any potential leaks.

Implant profiles

There are generally three types of implant profiles:

Low-profile implants: Have a wider base and less projection, resulting in a flatter, less dramatic, natural appearance.

Moderate profile implants: Have a slightly narrower base and more projection, resulting in a natural-looking breast shape with enhanced curves to your side profile.

High-profile implants: Have a narrow base and more projection, resulting in a rounder and fuller appearance. They are often chosen by patients who want a more dramatic change in breast size.

Results

Breast implants can increase the size of the breasts, making them appear fuller and more proportionate to the body. The size of your implants can help improve symmetry and restore breast shape in women who have lost volume. After breast augmentation women report having more self-esteem and confidence as a result of feeling more attractive and feminine.
