The IDEAL IMPLANT

The IDEAL IMPLANT is the newest implant to approach the market of cosmetic surgery and is raising the bar for natural looking breast implants. Patient satisfaction is high when it comes to this implant because it has a natural look and feel with a very low risk of rupture and capsular contracture. However, in the rare case that it does rupture, women can instantly detect it just by looking in the mirror and no harm is caused to their body. This allows them to safely seek implant replacement without the need for an MRI or ultrasound imaging. In a recent ten-year study, the IDEAL IMPLANT proved to have the lowest risk of rupture and capsular contracture rates among breast implant options. This implant provides the priceless peace of mind that all breast implant patients are looking for. The natural looking breast implants shown in the before and after photos below, as well as those on Sound Plastic Surgery’s website, will show you how the IDEAL IMPLANT combines the best of all breast implant features in one.

How Much Does Breast Surgery Cost?

/in /by

There are many factors that go into play when determining the cost of breast implants. Some of these variables include location, surgery, hospital costs, anesthesiology, brand of implants chosen, and type of implants. Dr. Robert Kachenmeister is an Ideal Implant Preferred Surgeon and practices out of Orange County, California. Dr. Kachenmeister is a board certified specialist with over two-decades of experience in plastic surgery. His specialties include breast implants, mommy make-overs, and tummy tucks. In this article, we will discuss breast surgery cost and recovery from breast augmentations.

About Dr. Robert Kachenmeister, MD

Dr. Kachenmeister attended the Loma Linda University School of Medicine and received his MD in 1988. He is a board-certified plastic surgeon and is affiliated with Mission Hospital in Mission Viejo, California. He holds consultations in Mission Viejo and Newport Beach, California, but is also known for serving residents as far south as San Diego. Dr. Kachenmeister is a clinical instructor at Loma Linda University Medical Center, graduated cum laude, received the Surgery Resident of the Yard award in 1990, and the Who’s Who in American College and University in 1987. He has over 35 five-star reviews on RealSelf and is a highly trusted plastic surgeon. His online reviews boast of his impressive bed-side manner, making patients feel comfortable, minimal pain and scaring, and expertise in explaining the process. 

The Average Breast Surgery Cost

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the average cost of breast implant surgery in 2019 was $3,947. Keep in mind, this cost only makes up a portion of the total price of a breast augmentation. In addition to breast surgery, patients are responsible for paying the anesthesiologist, operating room costs, and other related expenses. The type of implant chosen by the surgeon and patient can also determine costs. For example, unstructured saline breast implants are more cost effective than silicone gel implants. This is due to the increased cost of manufacturing silicone versus saline. The different brands of implants can also change the price of breast surgery cost. Some popular brands include IDEAL IMPLANT® Structured Breast Implants, Allergan, Mentor, and Sientra. Geographic location can also play an important role in determining the price for implants. Locations with a higher population tend to charge higher prices compared to plastic surgeons who work in more remote locations. This is simply due to demand. Typically, the total breast surgery cost ranges from $5,000 to $10,000.

Most health insurance plans do not cover breast augmentation surgery since it is an elective cosmetic surgery. Some insurance carriers even exclude coverage on breast diseases in patients who have breast implants. Prior to scheduling your breast augmentation, be sure to check with your insurance carrier to see if your plan has any breast implant restrictions. 

The more experience a surgeon has, the more likely they are to charge a premium for their experience and expertise. Many plastic surgeons including Dr. Kachenmeister offer financing plans for augmentations. If an estimate for a breast augmentation is out of your price range, be sure to ask about financing options. Remember, your comfort level and trust in the doctor should be at the forefront of your decision when choosing a plastic surgeon. 

What to Expect on the Day of Surgery

The day has finally arrived. The day when you will finally achieve your ideal look for your breasts. Many women choose to move forward with the breast surgery cost to improve their self-image and self-confidence. Prior to the day of surgery, Dr. Kachenmeister will have already conducted a consultation to determine your goals for post-surgery, which type of breast implant will help you achieve your goals, size of implants, and recovery processes. He also encourages women to come with a list of questions so that they can maximize their time during the consultation and put all of their worries at ease. 

The first step of the surgery is to put the patient under anesthesia. Dr. Kachenmeister will then make the first incision, depending on which type of incision was predetermined during the consultation. The breast implant is then inserted under the pectoral muscle or behind the breast tissue over the pectoral muscle. The position of the implant is determined depending on the method used for positioning the implant and the type of implant used. Once the implant has been placed and sized correctly, the surgeon will close the incision point. 

Most breast augmentations are outpatient surgeries, meaning patients are released the same day as the surgery. Some women may opt to stay overnight following a breast augmentation depending on circumstances. Surgery generally takes between one and two hours to perform. Once the patient has been awoken from anesthesia, post-op instructions and pain medications will be given to the patient. 

Recovery from Breast Implant Surgery

Every woman’s body is different and heals at its own pace. However, most surgeons agree that a full recovery from breast augmentations can take about six weeks. Although, many women notice that they feel normal after about one week. The first three to five days post-op tend to be the most uncomfortable and surgeons will prescribe pain medications to compensate for any pain. Following those days, most women can function with over-the-counter pain medications if needed. Most women report that they are able to return to work within a week following surgery. 

Dr. Kachenmeister will recommend that patients slowly ease back into their normal routines of exercise or daily routines. Strenuous activities such as heavy lifting or jarring activities such as running or jumping jacks should be avoided for a few weeks following surgery. 

To ensure a smooth recovery, special recovery bras are recommended. These provide implant stability as well as circulation and mild compression to ensure lymph drainage. 

Why You Can Trust Dr. Kachenmeister

Dr. Kachenmeister has over 33 years of experience and countless reviews that speak highly of his qualifications to perform breast augmentations. Considering breast implants in Orange County?

How Much is it for a Breast Augmentation? Choose Dr. Carlino & the IDEAL IMPLANT®

/in /by

How much is it for a breast augmentation? At Specialists in Plastic Surgery in North Carolina, you can expect to pay about $7,000 – $8,200 for that particular procedure. With a clear, upfront pricing list, patients who visit Dr. Richard Carlino for their cosmetic surgery can feel confident in the cost of their procedure, as well as their choice in a plastic surgeon. Dr. Carlino says, “With every patient, I work to combine my in-depth plastic surgery training . . . and ability as a surgeon to provide each patient with extraordinary results.”

Dr. Carlino has over 19 years of experience as a plastic surgeon and has helped countless patients achieve their desired look with both surgical and non-surgical cosmetic procedures. Dr. Carlino was recently recognized as an Ideal Implant Preferred Surgeon due to his expertise working with IDEAL IMPLANT® Structured Breast Implants. These new implants were developed using the latest technology, and give women the beautiful, natural look they want with peace of mind.

Your Breast Implant Options Explained

Every person’s body is unique, so certain breast implants are going to look different depending on your specific size and shape and how much breast tissue you already have. Right now women have three main options for breast implants: unstructured saline implants, silicone gel breast implants, and IDEAL IMPLANT Structured Breast Implants. 

Silicone gel breast implants have been a popular choice for many years, because they give you a rounded, full look, while also feeling very similar to breast tissue. There are a lot of different brands and types of silicone gel-filled implants out there, including “gummy bear” implants, which have a very firm, cohesive gel inside of the silicone shell. However, what you may not know about silicone gel implants is that they can silently rupture any time after your breast augmentation, and you may not know about it until weeks, months, or even years later. A silent rupture is when the outer silicone shell tears or rips, causing silicone gel to slowly leak out and be in contact with tissue. 

In a 2017 Independent Survey, Women’s Preferences in Breast Implants, “98% of women reported they would be somewhat to constantly concerned about silent rupture with silicone gel implants.” The FDA recommends women with silicone gel-filled implants obtain MRIs or ultrasounds every two-to-three years after primary breast augmentation to check for silent ruptures. These imaging procedures are expensive and insurance won’t cover them, so most women elect not to get them, despite the FDA’s recommendations. 

With the IDEAL IMPLANT, there is no need to worry about silent rupture. That’s because if your implant tears or breaks, you’ll be able to tell with a quick glance in the mirror. Your implant won’t completely deflate due to the unique dual-chamber design, but it will be noticeable enough that you’ll know it’s happened. Many women appreciate that the IDEAL IMPLANT is filled with a sterile saline solution, which is harmlessly reabsorbed by the body if a rupture occurs. Based on FDA clinical trial data, the IDEAL IMPLANT  only has a 3.7% rupture rate over ten years, whereas silicone gel-filled implants are more likely to rupture, with anywhere from a 8.7% to a 24.2% rupture rate.

The IDEAL IMPLANT also feels almost identical to a silicone gel-filled breast implant, due to its advanced design. While an unstructured saline implant tends to ripple and wrinkle like a water balloon, the IDEAL IMPLANT keeps its shape because a series of nested shells hold the saline in place so it doesn’t slosh and move around. Women and surgeons agree that the IDEAL IMPLANT looks and feels natural. 

How Much is it for a Breast Augmentation: Your Personal Consultation

When you come in for a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Carlino, you’ll sit down with him to discuss your personal goals and expectations for your breast augmentation. It’s important that you outline what you’re hoping to achieve out of the procedure so that Dr. Carlino can determine if your aesthetic goals are realistic or not. He will present your implant choices to you and talk you through what will happen before, during, and after your surgery. 

At your consultation, you’ll be able to step into the Vectra 3D Imaging system to plan your breast augmentation. This imaging system will take six photos that are turned into a 3D image by the computer, allowing you to see what your new breasts will look like from all different angles. With up-to-date information on breast implant sizes and shapes, the Vectra system visually approximates the changes in your appearance that can be expected after your breast augmentation.

How Much is Breast Augmentation Surgery? Your Options Explained

How much is breast augmentation surgery? A breast augmentation can range in price from $6,000 to $12,000, but many factors affect the total cost. While price is an important factor to consider, before you undergo a breast augmentation be sure your plastic surgeon has your best interests at heart. Seek out a surgeon with the education, skills, and experience to deliver the results you want. 

In Chicago, Illinois, Dr. Peter Geldner has over 20 years of experience in cosmetic surgery procedures. “I still get tremendous satisfaction from seeing the psychological and physical transformations that my patients experience following surgery,” Dr. Geldner says. “They revitalize their lives and do things they haven’t done in years.”

Dr. Geldner was recently recognized as an Ideal Implant Preferred Surgeon due to his extensive expertise working with IDEAL IMPLANT® Structured Breast Implants, the latest technology in breast augmentation. The unique design of this new implant allows women to have the best of both worlds: a beautiful look and peace of mind. 

What is the IDEAL IMPLANT?

The IDEAL IMPLANT is a structured breast implant that was designed by a plastic surgeon to give women a breast implant option that had the look and feel of silicone gel and the peace of mind of saline. While both unstructured saline and silicone gel implants have been on the market for many years, they both come with compromises that women do not want to settle for. 

Unstructured saline implants tend to ripple and wrinkle and feel less like breast tissue due to their design. These implants have no structure to hold the saline in place, and are often compared to a “water balloon”.

Silicone gel implants feel natural, but come with a risk of silent rupture, which means the implant can tear or break without your knowledge. Silent ruptures can only be detected with an MRI or ultrasound  scan, yet many women don’t follow the FDA recommendations to obtain these scans every two-to-three years because they don’t want to pay the expensive out-of-pocket cost.

With the IDEAL IMPLANT, a series of nested shells hold the saline solution in place so it doesn’t slosh around and feel unnatural. In case of a rupture, its unique two-chamber design provides a greater chance the implant won’t deflate completely and you can get it replaced at a convenient time. You also don’t have to worry about silent rupture, a quick glance in the mirror and you will know if your  implants are intact. The IDEAL IMPLANT also comes with a lower rate of rupture and capsular contracture when compared to silicone gel-filled implants, which are both common breast implant complications. 

Placed side-by-side, many patients and even doctors can’t tell the difference between the feel of a silicone gel-filled implant and the IDEAL IMPLANT. Women love the new technology IDEAL IMPLANT because they are able to achieve the same look and natural feel they desire with silicone gel-filled breast implants without the worry  of silent rupture. 

How Much is Breast Augmentation Surgery: Your Personal Consultation

When you come in for a consultation with Dr. Geldner, you’ll be able to discuss your personal goals and desires when it comes to breast augmentation. Dr. Geldner will go over all your options with you and help you pick the best breast implant type and size for your body. You can ask about how to prepare for your surgery, your pricing options, what your recovery will be like, and anything else you’re worried or concerned about.

You’ll also be able to see 3D photos of yourself with Dr. Geldner’s VECTRA 3D imaging system. This technology creates a simulation of your potential look after surgery. You’ll be able to really visualize how your breasts will look after your procedure and it can help you decide if what you think you want is what you actually want.

What comes to mind when you think about your ideal breast augmentation results? Perhaps you want to look good in a swimsuit, or address asymmetry that makes bra shopping a nightmare. Maybe you want to reverse the clock by getting implants with a breast lift. Many women start with the goal of simply feeling more confident in their own skin, leading them to search for natural implants that will make them feel beautiful. A skilled plastic surgeon can help you reach your aesthetic goals and allow you to shed insecurities safely and effectively. Find out how you can get your ideal breast augmentation results with the help of renowned board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Kevin Tehrani.

Breast Augmentation Before and After

Before you schedule your consultation with Dr. Tehrani at Aristocrat Plastic Surgery it is helpful to look at before and after pictures and set realistic expectations. While every woman is different, looking at these pictures will give you a good idea of what is possible through breast augmentation. Below are the before and after pictures of a female patient who wanted to increase her breast size and address asymmetry. Using the latest breast implant technology, the IDEAL IMPLANT® Structured Breast Implant, Dr. Tehrani was able to turn her vision into reality.

Visualizing Your Ideal Results

Looking at before and after pictures like the ones above will help you create aesthetic goals. You can visualize how implants will look once placed, discover why implant placement is important, and learn how to get the look of natural implants. Here are a few things to consider as you make aesthetic goals for yourself.

  • Your Ideal Size: As you look at before and after pictures you will notice fill volume is not equivalent to cup size. Two women with 350cc implants will have different results because of existing breast tissue, implant placement, and chest measurements. Instead of focusing on a specific fill volume, think about your ideal cup size and find pictures of women with similar measurements as you to show Dr. Tehrani.
  • Implant Placement: Is it better to place the implant above the muscle or below the muscle? While there are plenty of opinions thrown around online the truth is the best placement will be based on your specific body composition, lifestyle, and desired results. Dr. Tehrani will walk you through these options and explain the benefits and compromises of each so you can make an informed decision.
  • Implant Type: There are three types of breast implants, each with unique characteristics. Unstructured saline (essentially a water balloon), silicone gel, and IDEAL IMPLANT Structured Breast Implants are all available at Aristocrat Plastic Surgery. At your consultation you will learn about factors to consider such as unstructured saline implant rippling, “silent rupture” in silicone gel implants, and how you can get a natural implant look with peace of mind using the IDEAL IMPLANT.
  • Surgical Incisions: Your surgical incision is an unavoidable part of getting a breast augmentation, but there are options for where your incision is placed. Under the breast crease, around the nipple, and under the arm are the most common incision sites. Dr. Tehrani is one of the few plastic surgeons in the nation to offer transumbilical breast augmentation, or TUBA. This technique places the incision at the navel, or through an existing scar such as one from a C-section, in order to hide the tell-tale breast augmentation incision. If you are interested in this technique, make a consultation today to learn more.
  • Combination Surgery: In order to achieve your aesthetic goals you may need to consider a combination surgery such as a breast augmentation with a lift, tummy tuck, or liposuction. These procedures are commonly combined in a mommy makeover. Dr. Tehrani will create an individualized treatment plan to help you reach all of your aesthetic goals in a safe and effective way.

Finding Options for Natural Implants and More

As you think about your aesthetic goals and search before and after pictures, keep in mind that every woman’s body is unique. For a successful surgical outcome you need a surgeon who recognizes this and offers a wide range of options to meet every woman’s needs. Unfortunately, many surgeons do not offer all the available options to their patients. Dr. Tehrani recognizes the need to make individualized treatment plans, and is dedicated to providing options like the IDEAL IMPLANT for a natural looking result.

Dr. Tehrani was one of the first board-certified plastic surgeons to begin offering the IDEAL IMPLANT Structured Breast Implant, and was named an Ideal Implant Preferred Surgeon because of his extensive experience using the implant. The internal structure of the IDEAL IMPLANT gives women natural looking results by reducing the risk of rippling and providing stability. Because the implant is filled with saline, there is no need for repeated MRIs or ultrasounds to check for a silent rupture as with silicone gel implants, and the saline is naturally absorbed by the body if a rupture does occur. To discuss your implant and surgery options and find out if you are a good candidate for the IDEAL IMPLANT visit Dr. Tehrani today.

The Benefits of Getting Breast Implants with Dr. Richard Korentager

/in /by

Breast augmentation is one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures performed. Many women describe getting breast implants as a life-changing experience, including patients of Dr. Richard Korentager. He finds his patients not only report physical benefits, but emotional advantages as well.

A Positive Impact

Seeing the lives of his patients improve following surgery is why Dr. Korentager loves his work as a plastic surgeon. He states:

“I became fascinated by the field of plastic surgery as a medical student when I was exposed to the broad range of cases treated by plastic surgeons and found it to be a unique combination of science and artistry. My focus on reconstructive breast surgery, burn surgery and cosmetic surgery has allowed me to have a positive impact on the lives of my patients and develop long-term relationships with them.”

What Getting Breast Implants Changes

Dr. Korentager understands his patients seek out breast implants for a variety of reasons. He works hard to get to know each one of his patients to be able to formulate the best route to meet their individual needs. Some common causes for getting breast implants include:

  • To correct uneven breast size
  • To restore breast shape and size lost by breastfeeding or pregnancy
  • To enhance breast size after weight loss
  • To increase breast size when unhappy with natural development

The list doesn’t stop there though. Undergoing breast surgery results in much more than just a physical change. Women report:

  • Better self-confidence
  • Improved self-esteem
  • Healthier body image
  • Greater sense of femininity

Learning and Informing

Dr. Korentager is an advocate of educating his patients about their options when getting breast implants. With more than 30 years of experience, he enjoys sharing his vast knowledge with others too. He says:

“I initially entered private practice in Toronto but after moving to Kansas City I became an academic plastic surgeon at the University of Kansas. This allowed me to hone not only my plastic surgery skills but also to pursue my zeal for education. I have devoted my time to teaching residents and students in the schools of medicine, nursing and health professions. I have also become involved in health care simulation, physician wellness and coaching.

More About IDEAL IMPLANTS

How are IDEAL IMPLANTS different from silicone gel or unstructured saline breast implants? As the IDEAL IMPLANT website points out:

“In the past, women seeking breast implants were forced to choose between the peace of mind of saline or the more realistic look and natural feel of silicone gel. IDEAL IMPLANT Structured Breast Implants are the next-generation technology that offers you the benefits of both, so women can feel beautiful and secure.”

Their unique design sets them apart from other kinds of breast implants. IDEAL IMPLANTS are made up of a series of implant shells nested together that hold two separate chambers filled with saline. This advanced internal structure controls the movement of the saline solution, unlike unstructured saline implants.

Compared to silicone gel breast implants, IDEAL IMPLANTS also have a natural feel and youthful shape, but without the risk of silent rupture. Women with silicone gel implants are instructed to continually monitor their implants through expensive MRI scans or specialized ultrasounds due to the inherent risk of a “silent rupture”. This occurs when the sticky gel substance escapes from a damaged silicone gel implant and becomes trapped in the surrounding tissues of a woman’s body that requires surgery to remove.

Understanding Your Options

When getting breast implants, Dr. Korentager feels patient education is crucial. He wants women to understand their options and select the best type of breast implant that will help them achieve their goals. He takes the time necessary to address any concerns and answer any questions his patients have about breast implants and their long term upkeep. One patient describes her experience receiving IDEAL IMPLANTS with Dr. Korentager:

“I have the cookie cutter story! Two kids, breast fed each for 1 year. Pumping and nursing sucked me dry! Contemplated BA for a couple of years but didn’t feel comfortable with the idea of silicone (MRI check-ups, and just uncertainty of the material itself). I liked the idea of saline and had several friends with saline. But after two consultations I was advised that Celine probably wouldn’t provide me with very good results because of my lack of breast tissue . . . and because of how thin I am. So I did tons of research . . . and stumbled upon the IDEAL IMPLANT. There were only two doctors in my area that even had access to the IDEAL IMPLANTS . . . I researched the two doctors and made an appointment with the one that seemed to have the best reviews and overall experience. Fast forward with me . . . I decided to go with it . . . I can’t offer much of a review yet since I’m only 9 days out, but they look great so far! I went with 370cc which I’m hoping will take me to a full C cup once I’m all healed up.”

The demand for breast augmentation procedures continues to steadily rise as more and more women realize they have options. Breast augmentation sizes are not one-size-fits-all and with safer, natural looking breast implant options, you no longer have to worry about what people will think or be overly concerned about potential risks. As a board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Kevin Tehrani of Aristocrat Plastic Surgery experiences many requests for breast implants from his patients in Manhattan and Long Island. He will take the time in a one-on-one consultation with you to discuss your vision, lifestyle, and questions and concerns, including your many options for breast augmentation sizes. As part of an exclusive group of surgeons who now offer the IDEAL IMPLANT® Structured Breast Implant, Dr. Tehrani has the ability to provide you with even more options than other plastic surgeons. 

The IDEAL IMPLANT and Breast Augmentation Sizes

The IDEAL IMPLANT is the newest implant to approach the market of cosmetic surgery and is raising the bar for breast augmentation sizes. Patient satisfaction is high when it comes to this implant because it has a natural feel with a very low risk of rupture. The IDEAL IMPLANT is designed to last a lifetime. However, in the rare case that it does rupture, women can tell just by looking in the mirror – the saline filling inside is harmlessly absorbed by the body. This allows them to safely seek implant replacement without the need for an MRI or ultrasound imaging. In a recent ten-year study, the IDEAL IMPLANT proved to have the lowest risk of rupture and capsular contracture rates among breast implant options for primary augmentation. This implant provides the priceless peace of mind that women want in New York and across the country. The breast augmentation size shown in the before and after photos below, as well as those on Dr. Tehrani’s website, will show you how this implant combines the best of all breast implant features in one. 

“Dr. Kevin Tehrani is extremely professional, he takes time to listen and time to explain. A first rate professional experience. Completely satisfied with the Dr. and all the support staff.

The Benefits and Compromises of Saline vs Silicone Implants

/in /by

Making the decision to get a breast augmentation is not one that is taken lightly. Determining “how big to go” or if you need a breast augmentation in conjunction with a lift, and what type of breast implant is best for you requires research and consultations. The two fill materials for breast implants are  saline or silicone gel. Each has its benefits and compromises. A good plastic surgeon should offer all viable options for breast implants to patients. Dr. Vivian Ting of Walnut Creek, California, is a board certified plastic surgeon and an Ideal Implant Preferred Surgeon. She educates all of her patients on the many options for breast augmentations. Below you learn the different types of breast implants, saline vs silicone implants, the benefits and compromises of each, and why patients trust Dr. Ting.

Who is Dr. Ting?

Dr. Vivian Ting specializes in aesthetic surgery of the face and body. She also performs surgeries for reconstruction of the breast and skin cancer. Dr. Ting has an impressive resume spanning the course of many years starting in 1988 when she graduated magna cum laude in biology from Harvard University in Massachusetts. She continued on to receive her medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1993 and was elected to the national medical honor society, Alpha Omega Alpha.

Following her internship in Pennsylvania, she completed a full general surgery residency in Rochester, New York. During her time in the residency, Dr. Ting also completed a year-long fellowship in tissue engineering. She created an impressive technique to engineer ear and nose-shaped cartilages for surgery use. Her smarts, creativity, and talent for tissue engineering has helped her become the successful plastic surgeon that she is today. She followed her passion and talents and completed a full plastic surgery residency at the Harvard Combined Plastic Surgery Residency Program in 2003. During this time, she was also Chief Resident at Brigham and Women’s Hospital.

Dr. Ting is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons as well as members of the following: American Society of Plastic Surgeons, American Society of Maxillofacial Surgeons, and the California Society of Plastic Surgeons. Dr. Ting believes in giving back to her community. Her charitable interests include mission trips for cleft lip and palate surgery, as well as fundraising for “Evening in Pink” which provides free diagnostic screens and studies to underserved women in the local community.

Saline vs Silicone Implants

Dr. Ting takes the time during the consultation process to personally determine the look and goal of each individual seeking breast implants. Many women come into her office already knowing some information about each implant type, but Dr. Ting takes time to properly educate women on all options for breast implants. This provides women with the power to choose what is best for their body. Dr. Ting is there to guide them, but the choice is ultimately up to the patient. During the consultation process, women are given all options including unstructured saline, silicone gel, gummy bear implant, and the IDEAL IMPLANT® Structured Breast Implant. All of these implant types are FDA approved.

  • Unstructured Saline Implants: unstructured saline implants have an outer shell that is made up of silicone and the internal solution is made of saline, a sterile salt water solution. Surgeons can insert these implants through a small incision site and fill after the implant has been placed. One of the compromises that women have noted about unstructured saline implants is that they feel less natural than silicone gel implants. Some women believe silicone gel is better at taking on the natural look and feel of natural fatty breast tissue. A benefit to saline implants is that if one ruptures, a patient is able to notice it immediately. Also, the body is easily able to absorb the sterile saline.
  • Silicone Gel Implants: Silicone gel implants made of the same kind of silicone shell as other implants, however, they are filled with silicone gel. Silicone gel is a synthetic material that mimics the feel of human fat. It can be made either thin or thick. The thicker, cohesive silicone gel is often referred to as gummy bear implants. A compromise with silicone gel implants is that if one does rupture, it requires expensive imaging such as an MRI or ultrasound scan to detect the rupture. Unlike unstructured saline, a silicone rupture is not detectable to the naked eye. Because of this, they are referred to as silent ruptures or silent leaks. When the silicone gel leaks, it can adhere to the tissue in a woman’s body, requiring surgery to clean it out. 

Recovering from Breast Augmentation Surgery

Dr. Ting says that post-operative surgeries call for plenty of rest and limited movement and lifting in order to speed up the recovery process. Women will be required to wear a surgical bra that will provide extra support for a couple of weeks following the surgery.

Why You Can Trust Dr. Ting

RealSelf shows that Dr. Ting has more than 24 reviews, all containing five five stars. She has been in practice for more than 18 years and has an excellent reputation in her community. She knows saline vs silicone implants and how each implant type can better serve your body.

How Dr. Kerner Uses IDEAL IMPLANT to Achieve Natural Looking Breasts

/in /by

Dr. Elizabeth Kerner is a board-certified plastic surgeon in Plano, Texas, who has been in practice for 34 years and is one of the only female plastic surgeons in the area. Having been in practice for so long, she has established multi-generational relationships with her community, having cared for her patients, their children, and, sometimes, even their grandchildren. This speaks to both her skill as a surgeon and her ability to understand her patient’s concerns and provide them with the results they desire. This was reflected in her statement that “What I really love to do is operate, but the relationships have been amazing over the years.” 

We sat down with Dr. Kerner to find out more about her, her practice, and why she offers her patients the IDEAL IMPLANT® Structured Breast Implant.

Breast Augmentation with Dr. Kerner

“At our practice we have always focused on patient education. When women come in, we hit them with a lot of information. We first discuss why they want to have a breast enlargement. We talk in detail about implant size, placement, the incisions, and everything they can expect from their surgery. I also explain the pros and cons of the different types of implants. When they come back for their second discussion, we go over risks and complications.”  

A Closer Look at Breast Implant Types 

“Most women come in convinced they’re going to choose silicone gel implants to get natural looking breasts. I still say, if you’ll just give me the grace to, let me just show you all of the implants and tell you the information about them and let you actually touch them. See what the silicone gel implant feels like inside and then I’ll tell you what my experience has been. I do a lot of implant removal. I do a lot of complex revisionary surgery and I’ve seen the worst silicone gel ruptures. I’ve had people with silicone gel oozing out of their skin from ruptures.

“Some of the older silicone gel implants can create a mess. They all rupture and women come in constantly saying, ‘I know my implants are ruptured, but the radiologist told me not to worry about it.’ I tell them that’s not the case. I think silent rupture with the old ones is a huge deal. I don’t think they’re benign. I think ruptures are not healthy and need to be taken care of.

“One of the real benefits of IDEAL IMPLANT is that if it ruptures, you have an early warning device. You can see it from outside the breast and it’s easy to tell if there’s a rupture, and taking the old one out and replacing it with a new one is just not a big deal. And to my mind, I don’t know why anyone would choose a silicone gel implant, quite frankly, just because of silent rupture and the fact that IDEAL IMPLANTS are safe.”

Why More Patients are Choosing IDEAL IMPLANT

“In terms of a natural look and feel, I think it equates with silicone gel implants. An IDEAL IMPLANT feels like a soft touch implant and gives patients natural looking breasts. I think the cohesive implants are noticeably firmer. IDEAL IMPLANTS are a wonderful option for patients, because it’s just a good choice to not have to put silicone gel in your body.

“Most patients want the peace of mind the IDEAL IMPLANT offers. They do their risk benefit analysis and they look at safety. The warranty of course is fabulous, and no other breast implant has one like it. Not only are the IDEAL IMPLANTS going to feel and look natural, you also get the peace of mind of knowing that you have a saline-filled implant. You don’t ever have to worry about silent rupture.

“Sometimes younger patients who want natural looking breasts tend to lean more towards the IDEAL IMPLANT because of the financial outlay. If you choose silicone gel implants and you wait to take them out until they’ve ruptured, it’s a bigger operation and it’s going to cost more money. Financial considerations play a role and I think the choice to use IDEAL IMPLANT is just practical. I think it just adds up as a better implant.”

Why Patients Choose Dr. Kerner

“I have a small practice with a great staff. My office manager has been with me for 30 years. I have two nurses who are both very good. Our front office person helps us stay efficient. We answer our phone, which I think sets us apart. You always get a human, unless we’re on the phone, and we try to call back within an hour, or certainly that same day.

“My goal at the office is that nobody spends more than five minutes in the waiting room because their time is important. Being a woman, I share the same perspective as my female patients. I think women feel less vulnerable with another woman. I never talk anyone into anything. If you come in wanting natural looking breasts and you’re undecided, I’m going to let you go away until you’re decided.

“We work really hard in our office to make patients feel like this is a trusted place, a compassionate place. We provide a warm, family atmosphere. I have patients that still come back to see me since I started in 1987.” 

Final Thoughts on IDEAL IMPLANT

“I am very glad that I’ve been offering IDEAL IMPLANT ever since it was first available. I think it is a big advantage to women to have this non-silicone gel option because of its safety and the fact that it has a natural feel. It has been a very valuable addition in my practice armamentarium and I know that my patients have been very satisfied with their choice of IDEAL IMPLANT.”
