Know more about Gummy Bear Breast Implants

 

Gummy bear implants offer more natural looking breast enhancement

If you seeking a breast implant option that can provide more natural looking results, gummy bear breast implants could be the answer. These cohesive gel implants are filled with high-strength silicone gel and more stable than silicone gel or saline implants, and offer more natural breast contour.

These FDA-approved implants are gaining popularity for the superior results that they offers. Gummy bear implants (also known as anatomically shaped or teardrop-shaped implants) are fuller and rounder towards the bottom part and thinner at the top, giving a natural shape and size to the breasts. They are an ideal option for breast enhancement, breast lift, and revision of breast enhancement surgery. As they are made with high strength silicone gel, they retain their shape even when cut in half and are just like chewy, gummy bear candies. These implants come in different shapes and sizes and can easily fit any specific body contour or type.

Cohesive Gel Implants – Benefits

• More natural looking breasts
• Reduced risk of capsular contracture (buildup of scar tissue around the implant)
• Longer lasting results
• Improved breast shape and size
• Do not leak if ruptured
• Minimal scarring

How Gummy Bear Differ from Other Implants

Unlike saline and silicone implants which are filled with a liquid solution, gummy bear implants are filled with a highly cohesive silicone gel. So even if the gummy bear implant ruptures, there is no chance that the gel would leak into the body. Moreover, in saline and silicone implants, the leakage normally occurs along fold lines and there are no fold lines in gummy bear implants. These implants also retain their shape for a longer period of time and implant shape does not change with positional changes.

The surgical procedure used for gummy bear implants is quite similar to that used for saline and silicone implants. The incisions for insertion of the cohesive gel implants are made in the crease below the breast (also known as inframammary fold) and are a little larger compared to the other options.

Find a Plastic Surgeon with Experience in Cosmetic Breast Surgery

It is important to find a plastic surgeon with experience in breast implant surgery to ensure natural looking results. Choose an AAAASF-accredited plastic surgery center that provides the services of qualified and skilled plastic surgeons. Make sure that the plastic surgeon you choose has experience in performing gummy bear implant surgery. Reliable plastic surgeons use advanced technology such as Axis Three which allows patients to visualize the outcome of the planned procedure. This helps in pre-operative planning for customized results.

 

Gummy Bear Breast Implants for Superior Results

The new FDA-approved gummy bear breast implants are a good solution for women to improve breast size and shape.

Breast augmentation is one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures.  This plastic surgery procedure to enhance breast size and shape is performed using saline and silicone implants as well as fat transfer, which involves using autologous fat or the patient’s own tissue for enhancement. The latest option, FDA-approved gummy bear breast implants, is gaining popularity for the superior results that it provides. These implants are used for breast enhancement as well as for breast lift and revision of breast enhancement.

Gummy bear implants offer many advantages over the other options:

• Firstly, the implants help maintain the breast shape over an extended period of time which is much longer compared to other implant types.

• With these cohesive gel implants, the chances for folds and rippling are quite rare. The filling does not shift around the implants due to its distinct shape.

• Implant leaks are less likely to happen once the gummy bear implants are placed.

• Scarring is minimal.

• As there is only less diffusion of silicone compared to other fillers, only a low capsular contracture rate occurs with this implant type.

• As it is available in a variety of sizes, the appropriate anatomical shape can be selected that matches the natural body characteristics for the desired contour.

• These implants not only enhance breast size but also improve symmetry and provide a more natural appearance

For the best results, it is important to have the procedure performed by a skilled and experienced plastic surgeon. In established AAAASF-accredited plastic surgery practices, plastic surgeons used advanced 3-D technology such as Axis Three to provide customized results. Patients can view 3-D images of their breasts from various angles. The system helps the surgeon in preoperative planning by capturing linear and volumetric measurements, allowing them to provide patients with gummy bear implants that suits overall body proportions.

 

Myths about Breast Augmentation

Women considering breast augmentation surgery need to be aware about the myths propagated about the treatment. Here are some of these myths and clarifications:

– Implants are obvious: This is not true. Silicone gel implants offer a natural look and feel. Proper implant selection and positioning are crucial to achieving natural looking results. An experienced plastic surgeon can provide breast augmentation procedures with the desired outcome.

– There is no rule of thumb for choosing implant size: The size of the implant should be carefully chosen. While women can make the choice, it is important that the surgeon provides them with the guidance to select the option that would suit their physiological considerations. This now easier with advanced 3D technology – results can be visualized with different sizes of implants.

– Implants are the solution to all aesthetic issues related to the breasts: Breast implants resolve issues related to size and volume. However, implants cannot correct breast sag, drooping or size or shape of the areola or nipples.

– Implants restrict the ability to breastfeed:  The implants are placed under the breast gland, whether they are placed above or under the pectoralis muscle. When appropriately placed, they will not affect the ability to breastfeed.

– The presence of implants increases sagging in women who breastfeed: The results of a recent study prove that this is not true. The study included 120 women with implants: one group of 57 women who breastfed for more than six months and the other comprising 62 women who did not breastfeed. When measurements were taken before and after pregnancy and/or breastfeeding, it was found that there were no significant changes in measurements or in sagging between both groups.

– Implants need to be replaced every 5-10 years: Breast implants need to be replaced on when there is a problem such as a rupture or leak.
