A common concern among women who are considering having breast surgery is to do with the overall result of the procedure. While in one instance the procedure can be considered a success if the patient does receive enhanced breast size or a lift, some women are also concerned with the feel of their breasts once the procedure is done. Most are concerned that the surgery may enhance their breast size, but might also make them look too firm or hard. For the most part, once implants have been introduced into the breasts, expecting the breasts to still feel natural can be challenging. Fortunately, a new generation of implants made of silicone has earned the reputation lending the implanted breasts a feel close to a woman’s natural breast. Thanks to advances in medical technology, not only does this material feel close to natural, it has also been improved to lessen, if not totally eliminate incidences of leakage and bursting, both of which could have lethal implications on the patient. Before looking into which breast surgery facilities offer procedures with this advanced material, it is advised for women interested in undergoing this cosmetic surgery to educate themselves on the procedure. Breast enhancers made of silicone are actually composed of silicone gel enclosed in a silicone sac. The gel’s consistency is made to closely resemble the consistency of the tissue present in the breast so that the implants can have a more natural feel and look. With this feature, silicone implants have an edge over their saline counterparts that have not yet perfected the look and feel of a natural breast. When a silicone implant is placed inside the breast, it tends to cover the entire breast, meaning, the implant does not sit or settle on one side of the breast only. This makes the implant almost undetectable. It is also unlikely that the implant will ripple or make the breast uneven-looking, which is why this type of implant is much more recommended for thin women who are looking to undergo breast surgery. However, not everything about silicone implants is good. This method also has its disadvantages. Despite the earnest efforts of the manufacturers of these implants, many women who have had implants with the silicone material reported their breasts still feeling too firm. A cause of this tightness is capsular contracture, which the silicone material is prone to compared to its saline counterpart. Capsular contracture causes the formation of scar tissue. Those looking for more affordable breast surgery Gold Coast procedures should note that saline implants, although harder, are cheaper compared to silicone implants. Moreover, although silicone leaks are less likely to happen compared to saline leaks, detection of this is more difficult, as silicone leaks more slowly compared to saline.
