About Breast Implant Shapes And Textures - Breast Enlargement Overview
If you are considering breast augmentation, the type of breast implant that you choose to use is something that should be considered thoroughly. Before committing to a particular type of breast implant, you should make sure that you are fully informed about the different breast implant shapes and textures, so that you choose an implant that will look and perform the way that you want it to.
Breast Implant Shapes
A commonly used breast implant is the round breast implant. Round breast implants are shaped exactly like you think they would be. Round. Many people often are mistaken by thinking that round breast implants will cause an unnatural-looking breast. This, however, is not always the case. It all depends on how the breast implant is inserted into the breast. A benefit to the round breast implant is that if it turns in the breast it does not distort the shape of the breast, and still remains symmetrical and round.
Anatomical breast implants or contoured breast implants have been designed to look more like a natural-shaped breast. Anatomical breast implants have more volume at the base of the breast implant, making it more conical in shape, similar to a real breast. Unfortunately, if an anatomical breast implant shifts, it can cause a distorted appearance to the breast.
Breast Implant Textures
There are two different types of textures to breast implants: smooth and textured. The round breast implant can be either smooth or textured, however all anatomical breast implants are manufactured textured.
The smooth textured breast implant as the ability to move freely in the pocket it is located in, in the breast. The textured implant stays in place. While the textured implant has a thicker skin to it, it is actually more prone to rupture than a smooth implant. Overall, smooth implants tend to last longer as well.
If you are considering breast augmentation surgery, consult with a qualified plastic surgeon so that they can help you to determine which shape and texture breast implant will work best for you. Breast implants can last for years, so you definitely want to choose an implant that will give the results you are looking for.
