What is the McGhan style 410 breast implant, what are its features, and when should it be used?
The Style 410 McGhan Breast Implant is composed of a gel that is considered to be more cohesive than prior silicone breast implant designs. It is engineered to allow simulate the appearance, and tactile sensation of a natural breast. Its BIOCELL® textured surface is said to facilitate a gentle degree of tissue adherence. As explained before, this may keep the implant within the dissected surgical breast pocket, whether submuscular, or subglandular. The texture of the Style 410 breast implants may also serve to diminish the degree of capsular contracture. The fill used to construct the Style 410 implant consists of a more cohesive silicone, which not only more closely approximates the look and feel of natural breast tissue, but is less prone to significant soft tissue spread should a leak occur. The patented barrier within the implant is stated to minimize silicone diffusion out of the implant shell.
