What are Round Saline Breast Implants? Particularly the Smooth Round Moderate Profile Breast Implants, Style 1600 from Mentor? What are their advantages and disadvantages?
As the name suggests the Round Saline Breast Implants are round in shape (not anatomically shaped), have a moderate profile (not too low, and not too perky), and are encased in a smooth silicone elastomer shell. 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 biggest advantage of the round moderate profile breast implants is a compromise between upper pole fullness, cleavage, and projection. It is a sort of “jack-of-all trades, master of none.” Because it does not emphasize one aspect of the implanted breast over another the augmentation takes place throughout, producing a full, rounded appearance. It is touted by Mentor to betheir most popular implant for over 2 decades.
