Are teardrop implants available in a smooth surface?

September 12, 2017
Asked By:kellyab in Sydney, AU

My PS advised me to use the teardrop implants as I am slightly saggy due to breastfeeding and the teardrops will lift the nipple slightly however I am concerned with the higher risk of ALCL with textured implants so my question is can I get teardrop implants with a smooth surface and would there be a greater risk of capsular contracture with this type of implant?
