Breast Implants are divided most commonly into two types: saline or silicone. Some breast implants are filled with a saline solution and others are filled with a silicone gel solutions. There are pros and cons to each, but at the end of the day, for most women it comes down to a matter of personal preference—which do you like the feel of or the look? There are also other considerations when it comes to implant size, texture, shape, and placement. Do you know all your options when it comes to breast implants?
Breast augmentation is one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures performed today. Many women use breast implants to enhance the fullness of their breasts to achieve the breast size they always wanted, or to restore their breast fullness after losing volume due to weight fluctuations or pregnancy and nursing. Some women may even use breast implants to even out a severe breast asymmetry (where one breast is significantly smaller than the other).
