What prostheses can be selected for breast augmentation surgery?

Breast augmentation surgery is a common cosmetic surgery. Breast shape and size can be changed by implanting prosthesis to achieve breast augmentation effect. The success of breast augmentation surgery is closely related to the selection of appropriate prosthesis. For the prosthesis that can be selected for breast augmentation surgery, the following will be detailed from silicone prosthesis, saline prosthesis, saline implant and other aspects.

silicone implant

Silicone prosthesis is a kind of prosthesis filled with silicone, and its shell is made of elastic material. Silicone prosthesis has the characteristics of good morphological stability, natural touch and strong durability. Moreover, the silicone prosthesis is not easy to break or leak, and has a long service life. In addition, silicone prosthesis can provide a full breast shape, making the breast look more natural and beautiful.

However, the disadvantage of silicone prosthesis is that the implantation process is relatively complex. Since the silicone prosthesis is pre injected and filled, a larger incision is required for implantation. In addition, if the silicone prosthesis is broken, it may cause displacement, deformation and other problems of the prosthesis, which needs to be replaced or repaired by a second operation.

Saline prosthesis

The saline prosthesis is a hollow shell filled with saline. The advantage of saline prosthesis is that the implantation process is relatively simple, and since saline can be adjusted according to needs, it is convenient to adjust the size during surgery. In addition, the price of saline prosthesis is relatively low, which is suitable for patients with limited budget.

However, compared with silicone prosthesis, the shape of saline prosthesis is relatively unstable and uneven. The saline prosthesis also has the risk of fracture and leakage, and needs regular inspection and maintenance.

Saline implantation

Saline implantation is a relatively new option for breast augmentation surgery. During the implantation process, the doctor will implant the hollow shell prosthesis, and then inject physiological saline to fill the prosthesis. The prosthesis material can better adapt to the shape of the breast and make the appearance of the breast more natural.

Compared with silicone prosthesis and saline prosthesis, saline implant has smaller surgical incision and less tissue damage. Moreover, the saline implant prosthesis can be adjusted at any time, which is suitable for those patients who want to achieve gradual breast enlargement.

Summary

In conclusion, silicone prosthesis, saline prosthesis and saline implant are common options for breast augmentation surgery. Silicone prosthesis has the advantages of good stability and natural touch, but the implantation process is more complex. The saline prosthesis is simple to implant and relatively inexpensive, but its shape is not stable enough and there is a risk of rupture. The operation incision of saline implantation is small and easy to adjust, which is suitable for patients who need to gradually increase their breasts. When selecting, patients should consider their own conditions, expected effects and economic capacity, fully communicate with doctors and make appropriate decisions.
