If you have decided to undergo breast augmentation, one of the biggest choices you’ve likely struggled with is the type of implant to be used – Saline or Silicone. With all of the media attention given to Silicone implants, many women come to their pre-surgery consultation with concerns relating to the safety of Silicone.
In contrast, women are equally as concerned with the lack of a natural feel with Saline.
So which one should you go with? The answer to that question lies in your own expectations for the outcome of your surgery, as well as the money you wish to spend on your breast augmentation procedure. While Saline is often thought to be not as natural feeling as Silicone (with some people comparing it to a water balloon effect), Saline implants are considerably less expensive than Silicone implants.
As for which feels most natural, I often suggest for women to visit my office to find out for themselves. You can’t believe everything you read or hear. We have a wide range of sample implants – varying in size, texture, and fill material.
You will be able to feel for yourself to determine what is most natural, what will look the best on you depending on your size and frame, and what will be the safest choice for you.
