Connecticut plastic surgeons typically offer both saline and silicone breast implants for women interested in increasing or balancing breast size. Some Connecticut surgeons prefer one type of implant over the other, so it's important to ask the right questions at consultation. Connecticut surgeons may offer breast implants from either Mentor Corporation, whose breast implant products include MemoryGel in a variety of shapes, textures, and sizes, or Allergan, whose saline and silicone breast implants are marketed under the name Natrelle.

Saline Breast Implants

Saline implants consist of a silicone rubber shell that is either pre-filled or inflated to the desired size with sterile saline during surgery. Most saline breast implants have a valve that is sealable by the surgeon.

Silicone Breast Implants

Silicone implants have an outer shell, also made of silicone, that is filled with a fixed amount of silicone gel. Silicone implants vary in shell surface (smooth/textured), shape, profile, volume, shell thickness, and number of shell lumens. Silicone gel-filled implants are not adjustable for size.
