What are the benefits of silicone gel-filled breast implants?
While silicone and saline implants look the same, silicone gel-filled implants feel lighter and more natural than saline-filled implants. In addition, due to the more-cohesive quality of the silicone gel, silicone implants are less likely than saline implants to show rippling. The issue of rippling is most important in the case of thin women who have less breast tissue to cover the implants. During your consultation, Dr. Greenwald will allow you to handle both saline and silicone implants to get a sense of their differences and similarities.
