Types of Breast Implants
Saline
Saline implants are filled with a sterile salt water solution and offer flexibility in size adjustments during surgery. They tend to be less expensive than silicone implants, but may not feel as natural.
Silicone Gel
In general, silicone gel implants have a more natural look and feel with less wrinkling. If you are very thin and have no breast tissue, you will feel the implant more, so the gel may be a better aesthetic option. The newer gel implants have a thicker, rupture-resistant shell and a more cohesive, almost solid gel inside with a more optimal fill. All gel implants in the United States are cohesive silicone gel, ensuring if they do rupture the gel does not spread into the surrounding tissue. The rupture-related problems we saw with the pre-1992 thin-shelled, wrinkly liquid gel implants are now extremely rare.

Natrelle Silicone Gel Implants
Natrelle breast implants are made with a cohesive gel that holds shape while maintaining a soft feel. Their gel implants contain a patented shell technology and an INTRASHIEL barrier layer designed to keep the gel in place.
Natrelle offers five different profile options, ranging from low to extra full. Different implant profiles offer varying levels of forward projection from your chest for your
desired fullness. It’s not just about the look, but also the feel. Natrelle is the only implant brand that offers three gummy levels for a firmer or softer feel. Both Dr. Bonness and Dr. Rowe prefer the Soft Touch, as it is a nice balance between softness, firmness, and fill.
Motiva Silicone Gel Implants
Motiva is the latest cohesive gel implant to become FDA-approved in the United States. It uses a patented Smooth Silk Ergonomix technology to decrease capsular contracture and implant rupture while also adapting shape as your body changes positions. The true monobloc shell results in a natural feeling and moving implant. Your breast implants can now have a round shape when lying down and a teardrop shape when standing up!
