Kansas surgeons may prefer one type of implant over the other, so it's important to learn about all of your options in consultation. Kansas surgeons may offer breast implants from either Allergan, whose saline and silicone breast implants are marketed under the name Natrelle, or Mentor Corporation, whose breast implant products include MemoryGel in a variety of shapes, textures, and sizes.

Silicone Breast Implants

Silicone implants are encased in an outer shell, also comprised 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 only available in fixed sizes.

Saline Breast Implants

Saline implants are encased in 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.
