I have 3 doctors I plan to meet with for a MR and TT and I was possibly looking to get a BA as well and after doing a lot of research the Ideal Implant really got my attention but didn’t see any of the surgeons I want to meet with listed on the website for carrying them. These surgeons I’m choosing are all board certified and really like their after photos of those who got both TT and BA done however I don’t want silicone/gummy
Answer: Not as many Plastic surgeons with the Ideal implant? The Ideal implant is relatively new in our practices. Except for the small group of plastic surgeons that were part of the initial study group, they have only been in general release to plastic surgeons around the country since October/November 2017. They are not difficult to learn how to use, however, and any board certified plastic surgeon that is experienced in breast augmentation should be able to use these. The ideal implant is a great choice for many women who want the peace of mind of saline but more of the feel of a silicone gel device. As more women hear about the Ideal implant and more surgeons are asked about it, I think you will see an increase in the number of practices offering them.

Answer: Using the Ideal implant I think is just a matter of getting more patients informed about this great implant. If they know about it and are interested to hear about it at their consultation, then more will eventually be used in augmentation. It's difficult when I bring this up to my patients and they have not even heard of it. They naturally would choose in the direction of silicone or traditional saline implants.

Answer: Hard to get they are a great Implant. It’s your whole life hopefully that you will have these implants so take your time and get what you want. Ask you doctor to get these for you. If it is the first time they use them the Ideal company may give a break to your surgeon to get them to try the implant. Doesn’t hurt to ask. If they are the only surgeon around trying the Ideal then other patients like you will seek them out. Good luck

Answer: Idea Implants Thank you for your question. The Ideal structured saline implants are available to any plastic surgeon who wants to use them. Many surgeons continue to offer only gel implants for financial reasons and it is what they are accustomed to using. I have been using Ideal implants for several years, and my patients have been very happy with them. They are an excellent choice for women who choose not to have gel implants. Ideal implants have all of the advantages and safety of a saline implant without the risks of a gel or gummy bear implant.. Sizing is done the same way as for gel implants. I also find the shape of the Ideal implants to be much better in many patients than what they might get with a round or shaped gel implant.

Answer: Availability of Ideal Structured Saline Implants Ideal multi-chambered, structured saline implants are available to any plastic surgeon who wants to use them. I have been using them for several years, and my patients have been very happy with them. They are an alternate choice for women who choose not to have gel implants, and they feel quite similar to gel implants. Sizing is done the same way as for gel implants. There is about 30-50 cc fill range that can be used to make the implants feel a little firmer or softer.
