Are high profile silicone implants the same as gummy bear high profile implants?

Thanks for your question. High profile "gummy bear" implants are a type of silicone high profile implant. "Gummy bear" refers to a more cohesive silicone; many of these implants are "tear drop" shaped, however, round "gummy bear" cohesive silicone implants are now also available. The "high profile" refers to the projection of the implant. A "high profile" implant will be narrower and project more than a "moderate plus" or "moderate" profile implant. Hope this helps!

All newer generations silicone implants are "gummy bear" implants, so yes they are the same.  Understand that "gummy bear" isn't an official term - it just refers to the newer generation of cohesive silicone implants that do not leak, which all the manufacturers make at the moment.Best of luck and hope this information helps!

Highly cohesive implants are 'gummy' bear implants. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with.   Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS), a member of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and a fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach TrainedDouble Board-Certified, Double Fellowship-Trained Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon
