Introduction

When considering breast augmentation, one of the most important decisions you'll make is choosing the right breast implant material. The type of material you select not only influences the final look and feel of your breasts but also plays a significant role in the safety, longevity, and comfort of your results. From silicone to saline and gummy bear implants, understanding the pros and cons of each material is key to making an informed choice that aligns with your body type and aesthetic goals.

At Human PS Clinic, located in the heart of Gangnam, Seoul, we specialize in providing personalized care and advanced breast augmentation procedures. Led by the highly regarded Dr. Kim Kook Hyun, we offer a range of FDA-approved implants designed to meet the unique needs of each patient. This guide will explore the different breast implant materials, their benefits, and how we ensure the best outcomes for you.

Overview of Common Breast Implant Types

Breast implants come in various types, with the three most common being silicone, saline, and gummy bear implants. Each has distinct features that make it more suitable for different body types, goals, and medical histories.

  • Silicone Implants: Filled with a cohesive silicone gel that closely mimics natural breast tissue, silicone implants are favored for their soft feel and natural appearance.

  • Saline Implants: These are filled with sterile saline after insertion, providing more flexibility in terms of size adjustments. They are inserted empty and filled once in place.

  • Gummy Bear Implants: Made from a thick, cohesive silicone gel, gummy bear implants hold their shape even if the shell ruptures, providing a stable, contoured look.

The best type of implant depends on various factors, including your body type, aesthetic goals, and personal preferences. At Human PS Clinic, we work closely with each patient to determine the ideal implant material through thorough consultations and 3D imaging, ensuring a personalized approach to breast augmentation.
