Introducing The Ideal Breast Implant - Natural Feel With The Safety Of Saline

    VIRGINIA BEACH, VA, September 03, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Women wanting a better shape have a new option for breast augmentation. Dr. Matthew Galumbeck, a board certified plastic surgeon, now offers the Ideal Breast Implant, which combines the advantages of both saline and silicone breast implants. The Ideal Breast Implant is a structured double lumen implant filled only with saline. Because of this unique design, this implant has the natural look and feel of a silicone breast implant, but without the concern of silent rupture, occurring in over 17% of silicone implants as reported by the FDA.

Current breast implant options filled with saline have several drawbacks including a high incidence of visible wrinkling and rippling as well as a less natural feel. However, saline filled implants have the advantages of smaller incisions for breast augmentation and adjustability of size for breast asymmetry. In addition if saline breast implants leak, the body harmlessly absorbs the saline and deflation is easily recognized by the patient.

Implants filled with silicone gel have a feel similar to that of natural breast tissue and have a very low incidence of rippling. However, because they are prefilled with silicone, these implants require larger incisions for placement and cannot be adjusted to balance breast size asymmetry. Moreover, if a silicone implant ruptures or leaks, it is not easily detectable. This silent rupture of a silicone breast implant may eventually cause breast pain or changes in the contour or shape of the breast.
For this reason, the FDA recommends that women with silicone implants undergo MRI imaging every two years after breast augmentation for as long as they have the implants.

With its distinctive design, the Ideal Breast Implant has the advantages of:

- All Saline Fill
- Natural Feel
- Low Incidence of Rippling
- No Silent Leak or Need for MRI
- Small Incisions
- Adjustable to Balance Breast Size Asymmetry
