IDEAL implant from skilled surgeon who hasn't used IDEAL yet. Is this risky?

sandyjames858
I live in a big metro area with many highly regarded plastic surgeons. But, none of the top ones I contacted have used IDEAL implants. How risky would it be to be a surgeon's first IDEAL implant patient, given that the surgeon is otherwise highly skilled in breast surgeries. Is the installation of the IDEAL so unique or different from saline implants that a surgeon who hasn't used them before could easily make a mistake or run into issues that might later lead to complications or deflation of the implant?
