Silicone gel, creates feelings similar to the natural breast tissue. In recent years begun to be used "form a stable prosthesis" is less viscous than the silicone gel in the implants. So it is unlikely to leak out of silicone.
Saline breast implants;
During surgery inside of Saline breast implants, is filled with a special sterile saline solution .
Forms of breast implants;
Round breast implants, allow appear fuller the upper portion of breasts. Because the shape ıs equal on each side of the prosthesis; to rotation within the body do not cause any problem.
Contoured breast implants; Contoured prosthesis has a shape similar to the drop and can provide a more natural-looking breast to the patients.
Breast prosthesis surfaces;

- From the darker skin around of the nipple (periareolar)
- In the armpit (transaxillary)
The choice of incision, may vary the type of breast prosthesis, the desired degree of size personal anatomy, and according to surgeon preference.
- BREAST PROSTHESIS PLACEMENT
After incisions breast prosthesis is placed into the pocket created. Breast prosthesis;
- Below the chest muscles (for submüskü)
- Under the breast tissue (subglandular)

Breast implants when placed in the body is created a capsule around the prosthesis by the body. This tissue hardens and becomes painful in some people, and this situation is called capsular contracture. In this situation the capsule is removed and the prosthesis locate or prosthesis need replacing. Prosthesis production technology has improved in recent years.So breast implants with rough surface who reduce the likelihood of capsular contracture development have been used.
While in the breast implants; on the walls of the outer silicone breast prosthesis is an abrasion or puncture a general possibility in the first, today are very rare. There is no connection between silicone breast implants and systemic diseases (affecting the entire body).
