Are there any implants that don’t have a silicone shell?

AT69
I am considering a breast lift with augmentation, however, I have a sensitivity to silicone had to stop wearing contact lenses due to this sensitivity and had an issue after sinus surgery when silicone nasal stent caused a bad reaction and had to be removed prematurely. Any suggestions?
