Thank you for your question. No, the IDEAL implant is filled at the time of surgery, usually after it is placed in the proper space behind the breast and usually under the muscle. I use the trans-axillary approach, so there is no scar on the breast after surgery. I would definitely recommend the IDEAL implant. The new IDEAL implant has 2 chambers of saline and internal baffles that allow it to maintain its contour very well, with good projection, and has less chance off rippling. In the original clinical trail of over 500 patients, with a followup of over 5 years, the patient satisfaction rate is near 95% with deflation and capsular contracture rates lower than that of other implant makers. It was FDA approved in 2014 and became commercially available in September of 2015. I have an extensive clinical experience with saline implants and believe the new IDEAL Implant to be the first major advancement in implants during my career. The patients I have treated with the IDEAL implants have all been very satisfied. I hope this was helpful, good luck.
Good day! For your guidance, the Ideal Implant™ is created for women who are not comfortable having silicone implants in their body, but desire a more natural feeling implant than traditional saline implants on the market. The unique structure of the Ideal Implant allows for a similar look and feel as silicone with the safety of saline. It is best to have an in-person examination to a board-certified plastic surgeon that has extensive experience with this kind of implant and discuss realistic goals and expectations. Best of luck! #RealSelf100
No the ideal implant is filled once it is in the pocket. This has the advantage of being able to titrate just the right size as well as being able to make a smaller incision for insertion. They are now FDA approved and available and a great choice if you want the softness of silicone and the peace of mind of Saline implants.
Hello,Like all saline implants, it needs to be filled by the surgeon at the time of surgery, which means it has a filling valve in the shell. This is a potential area of failure and deflation. Best of luck!
Saline implants come empty and e surgeon fills them at the time of surgery. Pre-filled implants were once available but the company that makes them no longer does business the US.
