Everything you need to know about Natrelle Breast Implants
If you’re thinking about Breast Augmentation, one of the first questions that usually comes up is: which implant should I choose? Natrelle Breast Implants are one of the options available for increasing volume and improving the shape of the breasts, with different choices in size, profile, and gel characteristics.
But choosing an implant shouldn’t be just about picking how many cubic centimeters you want: your anatomy, your expectations, and your surgeon’s recommendation are also part of the decision.
What is Breast Augmentation?
This surgery is also known as augmentation mammoplasty, a surgical procedure designed to increase breast volume and improve their shape or proportion through the placement of breast implants.
Implants can be placed in different positions and using different surgical techniques. The decision will depend on factors such as the available breast tissue, chest anatomy, the type of implant chosen, and the desired outcome.
That’s why, even if you already have an idea of the size you want, the final choice should be made together with your plastic surgeon during a consultation.
Natrelle Breast Implants
Natrelle® is a breast implant brand from Allergan Aesthetics that offers different options for augmentation and breast reconstruction surgery.
There’s a wide variety of saline implants and different lines of silicone implants, including the Natrelle INSPIRA® collection, which incorporates different cohesive gel technologies.
One of the standout features of Natrelle silicone implants is precisely the variety of options available. This gives your surgeon plenty of choices to select the one that best fits your goals and your body’s physical anatomy.
What are Natrelle implants made of?
Silicone breast implants have an outer silicone shell and are filled with silicone gel. The FDA explains that silicone gel implants available in the United States can vary in size, shell thickness, surface texture, and shape.
In the Natrelle INSPIRA® collection, the gel can have different levels of cohesiveness. Cohesiveness refers to the gel’s consistency and its ability to hold together. In simple terms, there are options with different firmness and behavior characteristics, allowing the surgeon to choose based on the result the patient is looking for.
Sizes, shapes, and profiles of Natrelle implants
One of the most common questions is: what implant size should I choose? The answer isn’t as simple as picking out a bra.
Implants are measured mainly by their volume, expressed in cc, but it’s also important to consider their width, height, and projection. Natrelle offers different profiles that let you adjust how far the implant projects forward and how its volume is distributed.
Beyond size, there are also different shape and design features. The Natrelle INSPIRA® collection includes round implant options in different profiles, which can help create anything from a fuller look to a result with less volume in the upper pole.
That’s why two patients can choose the same volume in cc and end up with completely different results.
How to choose the ideal Natrelle breast implants?
This is where the consultation with your surgeon becomes essential.
During the evaluation, several factors are considered, such as:
- The width and shape of your chest.
- The amount and quality of your breast tissue.
- The elasticity of your skin.
- The current position of your breasts.
- Your body proportions.
- The volume you want to achieve.
- The type of result you’re looking for.
- The profile and characteristics of the implant that best suits you.
At Ideal Plastic Surgery, choosing your implant starts with an evaluation of your anatomy and your goals.
Does a bigger implant mean a better result?
An implant needs to be proportional to your body’s characteristics and to the amount of tissue you have available to cover it. Choosing an implant just because you want to go up several cup sizes may not be the best decision for your anatomy.
Your surgeon can help you understand which size, profile, and features can bring you closer to the result you’re picturing, always keeping in mind what’s best for your body.
Why is it important to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon?
Searching for information online can help you learn about your options, but it shouldn’t replace a medical evaluation.
During your consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon, you can talk about your expectations, learn about the different implant options, and understand the benefits, risks, and possible outcomes of each one. It’s also the time to ask about the surgical technique, implant placement, recovery, and aftercare.
At Ideal Plastic Surgery, you’ll find Dr. Pirko, a certified surgeon with more than 18 years of experience and a specialist in breast surgery, along with an entire professional medical team experienced in guiding you through this process.
