Nagor breast implants are a brand of silicone and saline-filled implants used in the E.U. for breast augmentation and reconstruction. They haven’t been approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, so they’re not yet available in this country, but they do bear the CE mark, the equivalent of FDA approval in the European Union.Â
They come in a variety of sizes, shapes (teardrop or round), projections (how far out and wide they extend from the chest), and materials (textured or smooth). Each of the core lines includes up to 90 options for customized fit.Â
Nagor breast implants come with a lifetime guarantee that provides free replacement implants in the event of capsular contracture or a confirmed rupture. (The cost of replacement surgery isn’t covered.)
Your plastic surgeon may recommend one of these Nagor implant types, based on your anatomy and goals.Â
CoGel implants are teardrop-shaped, meaning that they’re thin at the top and gently curve to a fuller base. They feature a Nagotex surface, a textured outer shell that the manufacturer says makes the implant more resistant to ruptures, deformation, or capsular contracture.
It’s worth noting that sales of textured implants, including Nagor’s CoGel, IMPLEO, and GFX lines, have been suspended in Australia and France following the discovery of a link between textured implants and breast implant–associated anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL), a rare form of cancer.
IMPLEO round implants come in 38 sizes with the Nagotex textured surface, while IMPLEO Smooth round implants in the same sizes have a smooth surface. Their cohesive silicone gel helps the implants maintain their shape and offers a natural look.
GFX implants also contain cohesive silicone gel. They all have the Nagotex textured surface and come in 56 sizes.
RGI implants are round, with a smooth surface and cohesive silicone gel. They come in 48 variations.
Nagor’s saline implants are filled with a sterile saltwater solution that’s similar to fluid naturally found in the body. They have a slightly firmer feel than gel implants, but some patients are more comfortable with saline because it’s easier to detect ruptures in them and there isn’t the risk of silicone leakage. These round implants are available in a range of profiles and sizes, with either a smooth or textured surface, for a total of 64 different options. They’re made to order and customized to suit your body and goals.
