Understanding Breast Implant Options in Dallas

When undergoing breast augmentation in Texas, choosing the correct breast implants is paramount in obtaining an optimal result. Dr. Mohan provides comprehensive breast implant solutions tailored to individual patient anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Types of Breast Implants

Saline Breast Implants

Saline implants are FDA-approved for patients over 18 and consist of a saline solution enclosed in a silicone shell. These implants offer several distinct advantages:

• More affordable compared to silicone options
• Smaller surgical incision required
• Easy rupture detection

Silicone Breast Implants

FDA-approved for patients over 22, silicone implants are increasingly popular due to their natural appearance and feel. The newest generation features highly cohesive silicone gel within a silicone shell.

• More natural look and texture
• Reduced risk of implant rippling

Gummy Bear Breast Implants

These advanced silicone implants feature highly cohesive gel that maintains its shape, similar to a gummy bear's consistency. If cut, the gel remains intact, providing enhanced stability and a more natural feel.

Implant Shapes and Surfaces

Round vs. Anatomic Implants

Round implants provide more upper breast fullness and are most commonly used. Anatomic (shaped) implants offer a more natural contour, ideal for patients with minimal breast tissue seeking subtle enhancement.

Smooth vs. Textured Implants

Implant surface texture varies, with smooth and textured options available. Anatomic implants are typically textured to maintain proper positioning.

Implant Selection Considerations

Dr. Mohan carefully evaluates each patient's unique anatomy, aesthetic goals, and lifestyle to recommend the most suitable breast implant option. Factors considered include body frame, existing breast tissue, and desired outcome.

Implant Longevity and Maintenance

Modern breast implants are designed to be durable, with many patients maintaining their implants for 10-20 years. Regular consultations and monitoring are recommended to ensure ongoing implant integrity.

Cost Considerations

Implant costs vary depending on type and material. Saline implants are typically less expensive, while silicone and gummy bear implants represent a higher investment in aesthetic refinement.
