There are two types of breast implants available to women: saline filled breast implants and gel filled breast implants.
Dr. Niessen offers a variety of textures, sizes and shapes to provide you the greatest flexibility toward achieving breast enhancement goals.
Saline filled breast implants are filled with a saltwater solution similar to the fluid that makes up most of the human body.
Each breast implant has a self sealing valve used to fill the device during surgery.

There are two types of saline filled breast implants for you to consider when deciding to have breast augmentation surgery:
Round Style Breast Implant
The round shape is available in a wide range of sizes to accommodate various body types. Round breast implant shells come in two textures: smooth and textured.
Smooth surface breast implants have a slightly softer shell and are less likely to be felt through the skin and tissue.
Contour Style Breast Implant
These saline filled breast implants feature a contoured shape that re-creates the more teardrop outline of a natural looking breast. Women who are looking for a gently sloping breast silhouette often prefer these. These implants are used when a patient has her implants placed directly beneath the breast (subglandular). |
