HOW DR. LOWNEY PERFORMS A BREAST AUGMENTATION
BREAST AUGMENTATION BEFORE AND AFTERS*
SALINE BREAST IMPLANTS VS. SILICONE BREAST IMPLANTS
Silicone Gel Implants
Advantages of Silicone Breast Implants
- The most popular implant choice
- Compared to saline implants, silicone implants are lighter, softer, and smoother.
- Silicone implants better mimic the feel and appearance of natural breast tissue
Disadvantages of Silicone Breast Implants
- In compliance with FDA regulations, women must be 22 years or older to get silicone implants.
- Compared to breast augmentation with saline implants, silicone implants typically require a slightly larger incision
- Silicone implants typically cost more than saline implants.
Saline Breast Implants
Advantages of Saline Implants
- Saline implants are typically easier to place and adjust during the surgery.
- In the rare case of rupture, saline is easily and safely absorbed by the body
- Typically saline implants are less expensive than silicone implants
- Because they are filled once inserted into the body, saline implants typically require smaller incisions
- Saline implants are approved by the FDA for patients 18 and older.
Disadvantages of Saline Implants
- Compared to silicone implants, saline implants are more susceptible to wrinkling (especially when the patient does not have very much natural breast tissue.)
- Saline implants are firmer and heavier than silicone implants
BREAST AUGMENTATION RISK AND SIDE EFFECTS
UNDERSTANDING IMPLANT PLACEMENT: OVER VS UNDER THE MUSCLE
When getting breast implants, there are two placement options: subglandular (over the muscle) or submuscular (under the muscle). When the breast implant is placed over the pectoralis muscle of the chest, the implant is covered by the soft tissue and skin of the breast. This technique is less invasive and has a quicker recovery time. Additionally, it can create a more prominent and rounder look to the breast. Lastly, it is ideal for those who already have a substantial amount of breast tissue. In contrast, this technique may look less natural, especially if there is not enough existing breast tissue. Additionally, there is an increased risk of capsular contracture (scar tissue that forms around the implant, causing it to harden)
When the breast implant is placed underneath the pectoralis muscles of the chest, this creates more natural-looking results since the muscle covers the implant and creates a gradual slope to the breast. Additionally, there is a reduced risk of rippling as well as capsular contracture when placing implants underneath the muscle. This method is ideal for those who have a small amount of natural breast tissue. However, this technique is more invasive and carries a longer recovery time.
BREAST IMPLANTS vs. FAT TRANSFER
A fat transfer is an alternative method for breast enhancement. However, there are a few cons to consider. Fat transfer relies on the amount of fat available in your body to increase your breast size. Therefore, there is a limit to how much fat the surgeon can transfer. This may result in your breasts not being as big or shapely as you hoped for. With breast implants, you can choose the size and shape of your breasts.
Another downside with a fat transfer is that the fat might not stay in your breasts permanently. Some of the transferred fat can be reabsorbed by your body over time, which means your breast size could decrease. This may require additional procedures to maintain the desired size.
Additionally, gaining or losing weight can affect the results of a fat transfer. Since the fat used for the transfer is from your own body, changes in weight could affect the size and shape of your breasts. Lastly, implants can be easily removed while it is difficult to remove fat once it is injected.
