Gummy Bear Breast Implants for More Appealing Results

Breast augmentation is one of the most popular cosmetic surgical procedures in the U.S. Breast implants have improved over time, allowing women to achieve an attractive, well-shaped bust line safely and effectively. Gummy bear breast implants are the fifth generation in silicone breast implants and widely accepted as a great choice for women looking to attain more fullness in the bottom of the breast and a natural-looking outcome. They are unique in that they maintain their shape even when if the implant shell happens to rupture.

When compared to their saline and silicone counterparts, these highly-cohesive silicone gel implants are more stable and match the shape of the natural breast. Built of high-strength silicone gel, they are a good choice for primary augmentation, breast lifts and revision surgery.

Gummy Bear Implants – Unique Features

These FDA-approved implants are efficient and safe, and maintain their shape. Consistency is improved as they are made of highly cohesive silicone gel and they have reduced chances of leakage, rippling and rupture. These textured implants also come with lower risks of capsular contracture. Their other benefits include

  • Increased longevity
  • Minimal discomfort
  • Best possible proportions
  • Less scar tissue

Gummy bear breast implants come in a variety of sizes and shapes. They are shaped rather than round, with more projection at the bottom and tapered towards the top. The reason why these shaped silicone gel breast implants maintain their shape is that the silicone gel is more firmly bonded in these implants than round breast implants. However, they require a longer incision to place than saline.

3D Imaging for the Desired Breast Enhancement Outcome

Regardless the type of implant chosen, approaching the right surgeon is crucial for an optimal outcome. A reliable plastic surgeon will help patients understand the differences between the different types of implants and how they will affect the final look. Experienced surgeons in established AAAASF-accredited practices use 3D imaging technology to help patients visualize the results. Getting a photographic depiction of what to expect from this breast surgery procedure helps patients take a confident decision and achieve the desired results.

Many practices also offer composite breast augmentation with gummy bear and other types of implants. This procedure combines implants and fat transfer for a natural-looking outcome. This is a great option for women who lack sufficient tissues to cover the implant and have some excess fat to spare for transfer to the breast from other areas of the body.
