Silicone Breast Implants Or Saline
saline or silicon what’s better for Breast Implants?
I am going to be having breast implants and I cant decide if I want to have saline or silicon implants. What do you think?
They both have goods points and bad points. A silicone gel-filled breast implant has a silicone rubber shell with the same general composition as shown in the Saline-Filled Breast Implant.
The filler is silicone gel that has the general composition of:
* silicone oil
* cured polymeric (large) silicones
* small amounts of uncured large and smaller silicones
* minute amounts (parts per million) of metals, including a metal catalyst (usually platinum). (A catalyst is something that causes a change in material.)
The silicone rubber shell for a saline-filled breast implant has the following general composition:
* cured polymeric (large) silicones
* approximately 20% of finely powdered silica that is tightly bound to the silicone polymers
* small amounts of smaller silicones
* minute amounts (parts per million) of metals, including a metal catalyst (usually tin, zinc, or platinum) (A catalyst is something that causes a change in material.)
* traces of readily evaporating materials (volatiles), such as xylene and other organic compounds.
