Choosing the Right Type of Breast Implant

Breast augmentation may be a popular procedure, but it is anything but cookie-cutter. Every patient’s results are a little bit different, because every patient requires different results in order to find the right complement to the rest of her body and to achieve her desired look. We can vary the results of breast augmentation not only by the size of the breast implant, but by the type of implant used as well. The two primary types of implants are saline implants and silicone implants. Both have their own strengths, but the chart below provides a simplified guide to understanding your Atlanta breast augmentation options so that you can go into your breast surgery consultation with questions in mind.
