What's the latest news about Silicon implants?

Silicone implants are filled with a different formulation of the material that makes up the shell. As a polymer, it is thicker and more viscous than salt water, which many women prefer due to the material acting and feeling more like natural breast tissue.

Silicone leaks are not as obvious since silicone does not easily flow like water. In order to detect a possible rupture of a silicone-filled implant, women need to have a special screening that detects problems. I recommend that women get regularly scheduled check-ups throughout the life of their implant in order to ensure its ongoing proper function.
In recent years, a modified version of silicone, known as "form-stable silicone," has become a popular filler. This material has even fewer liquid properties, resembling more of a thick and chewy candy, such as a gummy bear. Nicknamed "gummy bear implants," these are even more likely to stay intact in the case of a rupture – though routine check-ups are still recommended.
