Can Breast Implants Look Supple and Not Stiff? The answer is yes! However, this is most likely in patients who already have adequate breast tissues who undergo modest augmentation.

Answer: Breast implants should look and feel supple Implants that feel supple will look more natural too. With saline implants, fill volume is important; at the low end, they will be soft but prone to ripples, and at the high end they will be too firm. Smooth round silicone implants usually offer a natural feel and look when the size is right. The new form-stable implants (also called "gummy bear") are firmer and may not move in a natural way with activity as much as round.

Answer: Can the Result of Breast Augmentation Appear Soft and Natural? Hi there- Breast implants don't have to look stiff and tight... some women may want this appearance and ask their surgeon for this particular outcome, but it certainly is not something you would have to expect from the procedure. Any individual patient's outcome will depend on many variables, including your goals, the type and size of the implant chosen, the technique at surgery, and the quality of the postoperative care you receive. The best way to maximize your chances of achieving the outcome you want, and having an experience you can look back on positively, is to choose a surgeon wisely. Here is some advice on how best to do that:

Answer: Softness of breast implants Yes, breast implants can and should look natural and feel soft. I recommend silicone gel implants which feel much softer than saline implants. The amount of breast tissue you have overlying the implant will also affect how soft they feel. In general, if you have more tissue, the implants will feel softer and look more natural. Good luck, /nsn.

Answer: Supple breast augmentation The important thing to understand is that the breast implants themselves do not change. A patient's tissues (skin and muscle) change over time around the implant. In general, silicone implants tend to feel softer and more supple compared with saline implants. After surgery, augmented breasts tend to be quite firm before the tissues stretch and over the next several weeks, the body tissues stretch and accomodate the implants resulting in a more supple, natural feel. Of course the size of the implants and the quality of the surrounding tissues has a lot to do with the final feel of the breasts after surgery. Sean Simon MD
