If you’re interested in breast augmentation surgery, you’ll have to make the decision between saline and silicone breast implants. These implant types come with their own positive and negative qualities that will depend on the preference
Saline implants can be filled after being inserted empty into the breast pocket. The silicone variety, on the other hand, must be pre-filled, which can limit incision options. Though silicone breast implants do come along with more potential complications, they offer a generally more natural feel and appearance. Aside from those filler options, some implant types can also vary in shape. The gummy bear implant is a form-stable silicone implant designed to better mimic the natural shape of the breast.
