The Benefits of Saline Implants

    KIRKLAND, WA, August 22, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Over the past few years, there has been an increase in breast augmentation patients considering having their breast enhancement surgery performed with alternative breast implant options. The truth is, however, there are many benefits of having breast enhancement surgery performed with saline breast implants.

Saline breast implants have been used to perform breast enhancement surgery since the 1960s, and doctors all over the world have chosen to use them in their practices because of their safety, appearance, and their ability to conceal the evidence that an implant has been placed.

Safety

Women choosing to have breast augmentation surgery should be aware of all the risks associated with their procedure. In addition to the risks of surgery in general, breast implants filled with solutions other than sterile saltwater can increase the chances of health complications.

The sterile saltwater solution that saline breast implants are filled with is completely harmless to the body. In the unlikely event that the breast implant should rupture or deflate, the body quickly and easily absorbs the saline solution.

Incision Size

One of the other benefits that saline breast implants provide patients is that the incision required to place a saline breast implant is smaller than incision required for other forms of breast implants. Saline breast implants are deflated when they are placed beneath the breasts and filled by the cosmetic surgeon with the sterile saline solution.

By placing the implants when they are deflated, breast surgeons can make the incision much smaller and place it in a much less conspicuous place than other types of breast implant incision locations.

Appearance

After the safety of the breast enhancement patients, the appearance of the breast implants is the second most important thing cosmetic surgeons are concerned with. Saline breast implants have been used by thousands of breast surgeons worldwide because once they have been placed, they provide a very life-like look and feel.

Breast enhancement surgery with saline breast implants can help women regain their youthful breast and body contour as well as increase their self confidence. Breast surgeons such as Dr. Pratt in Kirkland, Washington are proud to provide their patients with the opportunity to improve their breast appearance with saline breast implants.
