Possible to Have Soft and Bouncy Breasts from Implants?

B
barbiebionda16Feb 10, 2009

Is it possible to have breast implants that feel soft and bouncy, like real breasts? I want them larger, but not if they are going to be too firm or feel totally different from real breasts (I don't care if they LOOK fake, as long as they FEEL nice and like the real thing). I heard that Silicone implants are the better choice for a more natural result.

Let me clarify some terminology that many plastic surgeons themselves misuse. Submuscular = the implant is COMPLETELY under the muscle with no release of the muscle (rarely done). Subpectoral = the implant is placed under the pectoralis major muscle, with the inferior edge of the...

It's a great question. The answer really depends on what type of implants you have. If saline implants leak, they simply deflate, your body absorbs the saline fluid, and there are no issues. It's important to know that the latest generation of silicone implants are made of a solid silicone gel, ...
