Asked By:valerie2365 in new jersey

I have saline now. one ruptured, and i am having them replaced. my doc wants me to go with silicone. Is there really a big difference in look and feel? I've had the saline for 10 years and the right side ruptured 2 times in 3 years. I'm just wondering if they are touched will there be a big difference in feel with the silicone rather then the saline? My husband and I were wondering what the difference would be. Thanks so much!
