Comparing Silicone & Saline Breast Implants

Last updated 1 year ago

When you choose to get breast implants, you will have the decision between silicone and saline filled implants. There are advantages and disadvantages to each, including the durability of the implant.

This video shows what happens when implants are punctured. Saline implants will be completely drained over several days, but the product is completely harmless since it is salt water. Past styles of silicone implants are not ideal for use, as the honey-like gel would completely leak out. New silicone implants, however, feature thicker gel so they do not leak.
