SILICONE IMPLANTS: SAFETY AND FDA APPROVAL

After a 14-year restriction, silicone breast implants received FDA
approval in December 2006. Initially removed from the market in 1992
due to health concerns, extensive scientific studies revealed no
significant association between silicone implants and alleged adverse
health claims.

COMPREHENSIVE IMPLANT RESEARCH

Multiple scientific investigations conclusively demonstrated:

 	* No significant increase in cancer or auto-immune diseases
	* No evidence of toxic reactions to silicone
	* Invalidation of the "silicone poisoning" concept

SILICONE VS. SALINE: UNDERSTANDING YOUR OPTIONS

Many plastic surgeons prefer silicone breast implants for their
superior aesthetics and natural appearance. The carefully scrutinized
medical devices offer women expanded choices in breast augmentation
with enhanced peace of mind.

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

Patients should understand that implants carry weight and can impact
skin elasticity over time. Factors such as genetics and individual
breast quality influence long-term outcomes.

SURGICAL PROCEDURE AND RECOVERY

Breast augmentation is typically a day surgery lasting 30 minutes to
an hour. Implants can be placed sub-muscularly or sub-mammarily, with
recovery generally allowing patients to resume normal activities
within 2 to 7 days.

POTENTIAL COMPLICATIONS

 	* Implant rupture or failure
	* Implant migration or malposition
	* Abnormal scarring
	* Aesthetic healing challenges

LONG-TERM IMPLANT MANAGEMENT

Similar to maintaining a vehicle, breast implants require periodic
assessment. Typically, implants last 10 to 15 years before potential
replacement might be necessary due to shell weakening or aesthetic
changes.

BREAST IMPLANTS IN PLANO | ALFRED R. ANTONETTI, M.D.

UNDERSTANDING BREAST IMPLANT OPTIONS IN PLANO

Since the FDA approved silicone breast implants in 2006, women have
gained greater freedom in breast augmentation and reconstruction
choices. Dr. Alfred Antonetti helps patients understand the nuanced
differences between saline and silicone implants, considering each
patient's unique body type and aesthetic goals.

SALINE BREAST IMPLANTS: VERSATILE AND PRECISE

Saline breast implants feature a silicone shell filled with sterile
saltwater solution. These implants offer multiple placement
advantages:

 	* Multiple insertion locations (armpit, belly button, breast crease,
areola)
	* Smaller surgical incisions
	* Flexible filling technique

SILICONE BREAST IMPLANTS: NATURAL LOOK AND FEEL

Pre-filled silicone implants provide a more natural appearance and
sensation. While placement options are more limited, many patients
prefer their realistic aesthetic and texture.

HISTORICAL CONTEXT OF BREAST IMPLANT DEVELOPMENT

Breast augmentation techniques have evolved significantly over
decades:

 	* 1800s: Experimental paraffin injections
	* 1920s: Fat transplantation attempts
	* 1963: First silicone gel-filled implants
	* 2006: FDA reapproval of silicone implants for patients 22 and older

CHOOSING THE RIGHT BREAST IMPLANT IN PLANO

Selecting the appropriate breast implant requires careful consultation
with an experienced plastic surgeon. Dr. Antonetti works closely with
patients to determine the most suitable implant type based on
individual anatomy, aesthetic preferences, and surgical objectives.
