Hello, the Allergan Natrelle line is measured in grams but the Mentor line is measured in cc (volume). Their dimensions are different:Mentor 350cc moderate profile = 14.2cm diameter, 3.1cm projectionNatrelle 345g SRM (their moderate profile line) = 12.5cm diameter, 4.2cm projectionEssentially the overall size would be fairly close but in this particular comparison, the Mentor implant is wider, and the Natrelle implant is more projecting. However, each implant company makes high quality implants with many different sizes and shapes, so good outcomes can be achieved with either implant. I hope this helps.
Hello,There are implant size charts provided by manufacterers which indicate the exact diameter and projection of the implant along with the volume in CC's.All the best
The dimensions are nearly the same, but the Allergan implant is from the Inspira line. Those are slightly overfilled with gel and should therefore resist rippling and wrinkling more than the Mentor implant. I was a Mentor implant user for years, but recent data suggests that their implants fail at twice the rate of competitors. I've switched to Sientra, but am using Allergan Inspira until those are again available.
Essentially when you compare implants in this way, you need to look at the manufactures product charts and verify all of the actual dimensions of the implant. Other than the measurements on the implants the only other difference is how they feel. Best wishes,Dr. Marcus Peterson
Selecting the right implant is sometimes confusing for patients because there are so many options and choices to pick from. However, with the assistance of a board certified plastic surgeon, you can narrow down the options quickly to find an implant that will fit your body.The basic...
Assuming that you have enough breast tissue on the right breast, then, yes, you should be able to breastfeed. Unfortunately, the only way to know for sure is to try. Best of luck, Dr. Nazarian
Although their is a slight different is weight versus volume, the end result is so similar that it is negligible. Hope this helps -- Dr. Nazarian
