Small breasted women are usually too embarrassed when people tease them by using various names, such as Flat-chest, board chest, raisin breasts, or even LCD chest!! Therefore many small breasted women wear breast enhancing pads, breast enlargement bras, etc. to make their breasts look bigger and fuller. But regular mocking by people using terms as "fried egg chest" might make these women consider having “Breast augmentation surgery”. Financial status is the most important factor for people to concern about choosing a clinic to carry out “Breast augmentation surgery”.
There is interesting information from SLC about Not standardized breast implant silicone!! How does it look? This is the main factor to make a decision for the best to your body.
Breast augmentation silicone types:
Currently, there are 2 types of breast implant silicone that have been approved by U.S. FDA: saline and silicone. Both consist of a silicone outer shell; the difference is what's inside the implants. Silicone implants are more popular, because they provide a better sensation, are more flexible, and look like real breasts.
There are two types of breast implant shapes. 1. Round breast implants 2. Tear drop breast implants. You can choose breast implants according to your preference.

What to make sure of in terms of the quality and safety of silicone breast implants?
There are several silicone implants brands in the general market, and these are made by various manufacturers from several countries, but only the Allergan and Mentor brands are approved by the U.S.FDA, with clinical studies of a long period ( >10 years) staying inside human bodies. The studies were carried out by following a large group of patients for long term and also auditing the manufacture procedure and quality control. The breast augmentation guidelines provided by FDA in 2011 is as follows:
-
Patients have to be at least 22 years old.
-
Risk of complication will depend on the duration of breast implantation, as there is a high risk of requirement to remove or replace the implants if people have implants for a long period. Regular breast check-ups along life are required for people with breast implantations.
-
Capsular contracture (hardening of the breast area around the implant) is the most common complication of breast implantation, along with ruptured and leaking silicone implants, creased implants, asymmetry (when breasts are uneven in appearance in terms of size, shape, or breast level), scars and infection. There is a 20% risk that at least one complication will occur in 10 years.
-
There are no clinical studies showing that breast implants can cause breast cancer, connective tissue disorder, or rheumatoid arthritis. However, various studies still don’t have enough patients and have not tracked patients long enough to assure that these conditions will not occur.
-
The U.S.FDA recommends that women with silicone implants get an MRI after implantation every two years.
