Types of Breast Implants
Explore your options with confidence and discover what’s right for you. Your surgeon is here to guide you every step of the way, so you can make a fully informed decision.
Saline Implants
Saline implants are filled with sterile saltwater after placement, allowing for adjustable volume and a uniform, natural or super round breast shape.
Silicone Implants (Gummy Bear Implants)
Silicone implants are pre-filled with a cohesive gel that closely mimics the look and feel of natural breast tissue.
Motiva Silicone Implants
Motiva Silicone Implants are a next-generation of silicone implants, allowing a choice of more natural (ERSD) or rounder (RSD) devices. These are especially useful when implants are placed subfascial rather than submuscular.
Subfascial Implants
Subfascial implants are very attractive for women who excercise a lot, especially if chest exercises are important. Subfascial implants, unlike subpectoral implants, don't move signficantly with exercise, while subpectoral implants can move, creating an unattractive look.

Frequently Asked Questions
When can I have breast revision after initial augmentation?
We generally recommend waiting at least 6-12 months to allow complete healing before breast revision surgery. However, complications like infection may require earlier intervention. We'll evaluate your specific situation.
What can breast revision surgery fix?
Plastic surgery breast revision addresses implant malposition, capsular contracture, size change desires, asymmetry, rippling, or previous surgical complications. Essentially any concern from initial breast surgery can be corrected.
Is breast revision more painful than initial augmentation?
Revision is often less painful since tissues are already stretched. However, extensive corrections (like capsule removal) may involve more discomfort. Most patients find recovery comparable or easier than their first surgery.

If revision corrects medical complications like contracture or implant rupture, insurance may provide coverage. Revisions for aesthetic preferences are typically not covered. Our team can help verify benefits.
