Are titanium-coated breast implants better?

There are several different theories for why capsular contractures form. Obviously if you know the cause then you can prevent it. However, with many different suspected causes, the solution is very difficult to determine.
For example the most popular explanation for the etiology of capsular contracture is the biofilm that forms on the exterior surface of implants. Many scientists believe that the biofilm contains bacteria that may trigger a response that may ultimately result in capsular contracture. These scientists believe that if you prevent a biofilm, you can prevent capsular contracture and that applies to all implants not just breast implants. I have always theorized that if you coated implants with microscopic silver (a natural antibiotic that is used in Microban (R)., it may be possible to limit a biofilm but that is only my theory. I am not aware of titanium possesing microcidal properties. I am also not aware of the implants to which you refer.
However, there are alternative theories for contracture formation. So, even if you eliminate the biofilm, it does not necessarily mean that you can eliminate the formation of a contracture.

I looked at the reports of Dr. Saylan, and although the use of titanium mesh is new, other meshes have been tried. As a matter of fact, tons of things have been tried to try and prevent capsular contracture.
At present, two techniques are being used to diminish the problem of capsular contractures. Neither of the two alternatives is perfect.
The older one is textured implant surface. The textured surface acts as a velcro to adhere the surrounding tissue, but it also creates a much larger surface area capsule. The capsule can contract a lot before it gets tight. Still, it only diminishes the chance of contracture. The downside is textured implants are more prone to visible wrinkling of the skin.
The newer alternative is the "Gummy bear" implant. It is stiffer than the regular implant, and it has the consistency of gummy bear candy, thus its name. It is more resistant to deformation as the capsule tightens, and less prone to visible wrinkling. The downside is that it feels like a gummy bear, not like a soft breast.

Your question is a new one to me. People have tried many different types of breast implants and have varied the outer shell, as well as the filler of the implant.

I have not previously heard of titanium being used, and personally doubt that it would measure up to solving the issues you raised. Having been in practice for over 20 years, I have seen many things come and go. I think that this will not prove to be successful, and would not be too quick to try it.

Sorry but these implants are not available in US. Regardless, the rate of capsular contracture with subpectoral breast augmentation with saline or silicone implants is so low that reinventing the wheel isn't necessary.
The market has been flooded with titanium since the USSR broke up and the republics have been selling off their military equipment, much of it made of titanium, in order to gain capital. So manufacturers have been finding any excuse to use this previously very expensive metal.
Alleragan and Mentor make great implants. Stick with them.

Hi, titanium implants are not available in the US at this time. The good news is that there is a lot of research in the area of prevention of capsular contractures. With each new generation of implants, the risk of contracture seems to go down, but it will probably never be zero. I hope this helps. Best, /nsn.
