The Importance of Implant Surfaces
One of the most important elements of breast implants lies in the importance of the implants surface. The surface of the implant is important for a variety of reasons. Implants with textured surfaces were designed to reduce the chance of capsular contraction. However, textured implants are more likely to be visible through the skin, depending on the placement of the implant. The shape, profile, and volume of the implant should be selected based on your breast-line goals. These factors are also affected by the implant placement. For example, a contoured breast shape may appear more rounded if the implant is placed in the full submuscular or partial submuscular position. Shell thickness may also be an important consideration depending on placement. It is critical to understand the differences in implants to that patients can choose the right material for them.
