There have been several recent reports and within these
findings there has been one specific observation that most
implant surgeons will choose to follow. It is with respect
to synthetic breast implants and the texture of the
silicone implant.
Most breast enlargements are performed for cosmetic
reasons, the US and UK markets estimate the ratio is 80%
cosmetic and 20% reconstruction after varying operational
procedures; one such operation is cancer removal.
Breast implants can be made of natural body tissue or
synthetic (man-made) materials. There are two popular
choices of insertion; one is of a silicone bag (prosthesis)
under the breast (submammary) or under the breast and chest
muscle (subpectoral). This prosthesis expands the breast
area to give a fuller breast (increased cup size), give a
better contour, and give more cleavage.
Natural Tissue implants are for those who need
reconstruction surgery, as opposed to the Synthetic Breast
Implant. Natural Tissue Implants are aided by taking tissue
from either the back or stomach and then moulded to suit
the need. The Synthetic however is a firm silicone shell,
with more and more offering the textured surface to lessen
the risk of hardening, deforming and rejection.
There are several new forms of silicone implants. There are
those that consider the new forms of a jelly like silicone
as opposed to the original styles of the fluid silicone;
often just salt-water. There has been much speculation
recently about the occasional wrinkle caused by the firmer
silicone implant. So the jelly like and saline implants are
most preferred.
In 1998, the UK government commissioned an Independent
Review Group to look at the available evidence about the
risks of silicone breast implants and publish a report
based on its findings. The group found no evidence that
silicone implants pose a risk to women.
The purpose of the jelly and salt-water is because of their
likeness to the normal breast tissue feel. As with all
implants the result is of the supreme importance. The
surgeon will suggest what type and what type would be
suitable. Although... There are an increasing quantity
seeking other choices.
The eventual size of the breast is mainly a personal
decision by the patient. Cup size is an inexact estimate of
the final size since cup sizes vary with the bra
manufacturer and how tight or loose the patient wears her
bra as well as how much breast tissue is already present.
Describing the preferred cup size does aid the surgeon, but
it also helps to look at pictures or photos to show the
physician the needed final look.
You may not be able to have breast implant surgery if:
1. you are under 18 years old,
2. you are pregnant,
3. you are breastfeeding,
4. you have malignant or pre-malignant breast cancer that
has not been fully treated, or
5. you have an active infection anywhere in your body.
To conclude our brief study, it is clear most breast
implants are performed to make the breasts larger. However,
implants can also be used to make drooping breasts firmer
and to even out unequal size or unevenly shaped breasts.
Yet there is no specific medical advantage of breast
implants, they can have great psychological benefits and
help to improve self-esteem and confidence.
