The RealSelf.com Maryland breast implants doctor directory is a free and unbiased resource for locating Maryland plastic surgeons' offices where breast enhancement surgery is performed.

Plastic surgery statistics reported in 2007 by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons revealed that breast implants were the most popular surgical procedure in America. Breast implants are a popular choice for younger women and new moms, who may feel that their size is too small, or that they have lost too much volume after having children.
Plastic surgeons in Maryland typically provide the option of either saline and silicone breast implants. Some Maryland plastic surgeons may prefer one type of implant over the other, so it's important to ask questions and learn about the differences at your consultation. Maryland surgeons may offer breast implant products 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 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 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.
The RealSelf.com cost map for breast implants in Maryland can give you a snapshot of what other people paid for breast augmentation in your area. Silicone breast implants tend to cost slightly more than saline implants, but recent data suggests that women may prefer the new silicone implants.
Be are honest with your plastic surgeon about your medical history and your goals for the surgery, and choose a surgeon who is experienced and qualified to perform breast implants in Maryland. No surgery is without some level of risk, and your surgeon should explain all of the side effects and possible risks prior to surgery.
The Institute of Medicine has concluded that there is "no definitive evidence linking breast implants to cancer, neurological diseases, neurological problems or other systemic diseases." In 2006, the FDA approved the use of silicone breast implants after the single largest patient study ever conducted, in cooperation with Mentor Corporation.
