Silicone Breast Implants and Sizes

Silicone Breast Implants

Are you thinking about silicone breast implants? Now in it's 5th generation, the silicone breast implant has undergone major revisions since the years of lawsuits back in the 80's. While they were out of production in the United States for fourteen years from 1992 to 2006, silicone continued to be the implant of choice around the world. The reported health concerns have been researched thoroughly and dismissed so now the FDA approves. This has been a huge boon for plastic surgeons specializing in breast augmentation. Why are plastic surgeons offering silicone again and what are some of the biggest benefits?



There are plenty of reasons women are opting for silicone these days. The first and most obvious advantage is the natural look and feel of this type of implant. Women around the world report that once implanted, silicone looks more like a natural breast and is softer to the touch. Additionally you won't get the sloshing sounds that can sometimes happen with saline implants. Is silcone right for you?



Cost is a major factor that you need to consider. Silicone breast implants are about a thousand dollars more. You also have to remember that the incisions will be slightly larger, about one inch longer in fact. This happens because the silicone implant arrives from the factory pre-filled with silicone. As a result the plastic surgeon requires a larger opening to slip the implant through. If these issues don't cause a problem for you silicone might be right for you.
