Silastic Vs Medpor Chin Implant

Having been in practice for over 20 years, I have put in hundreds of chin implants and feel that silastic is superior. The tissue ingrowth in the medpor implant can be problematic if you ever decide to remove it and I think it might have a higher chance of developing an infection.

Unless there is something unique about your situation, which you should discuss with your surgeon, I would tend to go with the silastic implant. Obviously, there will be people with different opinions but this is a frank discussion you should have with your surgeon.

I've been using Silastic Chin Implants (Implantech) for 10 years, and this is my personal preference. Silastic is a silicone elastomer with a track record of safety for over 30 years. These implants feel and look natural, and I haven't had a reason to try another product like Medpore.
I hope this helps, and best regards.
