Prior to your initial consultation, it helps to do your research on what options may be available regarding Breast Implants and prepare questions for your Cosmetic surgeon.

Saline vs Silicone Breast Implants

Saline Breast Implants consist of an outer silicone shell filled with the saline solution, typically filled in surgery once the Implant shell has been placed in the breast. Some types of saline Breast Implants allow for the volume to be adjusted after surgery through a valve in the Implant. The advantage of inserting an empty Implant and filling during surgery is that the surgeon can use a smaller incision when inserting only the shell. A disadvantage of saline Breast Implants is that they feel more like a bag of water than natural breast tissue.

Silicone Breast Implants consist of an outer silicone shell filled with cohesive silicone gel. The newer generations of silicone Implants use a silicone gel that is designed to stay intact in the case of the outer shell rupturing. The main advantage of silicone Breast Implants and the reason they are more commonly chosen by women is their natural look and feel.

Breast Lift, Breast Reduction or Breast Implants – Whats the right option ?

Breast Lift & Breast Reduction Surgery: Sydney and Adelaide Clinics

How many jokes do we hear or see about women’s breasts as we get older? Whilst some people may find them amusing, for some women they represent a harsh and embarrassing personal reality they face everyday. There is only so much a bra can do to support breasts that become saggy and lengthen with age exacerbated with pregnancy and breast feeding.

Cosmetic Surgery can offer a resolution to the problem of sagging and droopy breasts in the form of breast lift. A breast lift involves removal of excess skin and tissue from the breast and reshaping of the breast, to lift the breast to its correct position and restore shape. In some cases, restoring shape and volume also requires insertion of a breast implant. In other cases, a breast reduction may be combined with a breast lift to achieve a natural shape, size and proportion.

Does a breast lift result in smaller breasts? It is possible that your breasts may become smaller, remembering that the excess skin and tissue that is removed is what was causing the sagging. However, usually changes are seen in shape and not cup size. If size is an issue, there is the option of inserting breast implants.

More about Polyurethane Breast Implants – The “Furry Brazilian” Revisited

What women need to know about Polyurethane Breast Implants (“Furry Brazilian”)

Polyurethane Breast Implants are a reconstructive type of silicone Breast Implant. It has an outer polyurethane foam coating which is “stuck” to a smooth silicone style Breast Implant.

Breast Implants Cosmetic Surgery: Sydney & Adelaide

Many women in Australia are familiar with the concept of Breast Implants and Breast Augmentation surgery. The procedure is becoming increasingly common and sought by a wide range of women.

Breast Augmentation is a cosmetic surgery procedure that involves the insertion of Breast Implants to improve and enhance the appearance of a woman’s breasts. The operation begins with the cosmetic surgeon drawing markings on the woman’s chest to facilitate the incisions and Breast Implant placement. These incisions are made for the insertion of the Breast Implant; the cosmetic surgeon uses surgical instruments to create a pocket in the chest behind the breast to hold the Breast Implant. Cosmetic Surgeons usually choose the location of the incision in order to hide or minimise the eventual scar, typically in the crease under the breast (Inframammary fold). Less common locations of incisions are around the areola and nipple, under the armpit and through the belly button.
