Saline Breast Implants|Compare Profiles, Shapes and Textures

Updated on: July 13, 2018

Choosing between saline and silicone breast implants may be one of the harder decisions you’ll have to make on your breast augmentation journey. Here are a few basic facts about saline implants that may help you make your decision:

  • Saline implants are made of a silicone shell that is filled during surgery with sterile salt water until your desired size is achieved.
  • Because they're filled at the time of surgery, saline implants require a smaller incision than silicone implants.
  • The variety of size is viewed by many as one of the chief benefits of choosing a saline-filled implant.
  • In the event of a rupture, the natural saline solution will be absorbed by the body without any negative side effects.
  • Saline-filled implants are available in a wide variety of profiles, shell textures and shapes.
  • You can get both the natural and fake look with saline implants.
