What are Contour Profile® High Breast Implants Style 2900? What are their advantages and disadvantages?
As the name suggests the Contour Profile® Moderate Breast Implants are contoured to resemble the slope of a natural breast (a subject of debate), have a high (perky) profile, and are encased in a textured silicone elastomer shell, to aid in maintaining their position. The advantages of using textured versus smooth breast implants are discussed in another section of this text, but are more related to physician preference, and beliefs regarding skin palpability than scientific data. The use of a textured in shell in an anatomic or teardrop implant is absolute. This is because textured implants adhere more intimately to the implant capsule, and have less of a tendency to move. When placing shaped breast implants it is very important to achieve correct positioning, as there is a definite orientation to the implants, hence textured shells are used with contoured breast implants exclusively.
