Meaning is it equivalent to a 350cc mentor moderate? I know their sizes are different that's why I ask.
Answer: Natrelle 345g implant vs Mentor 350cc implant 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.

Answer: Implant specs 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

Answer: Close, but there's a key difference 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.

Answer: Review manufacturer charts 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
