Introducing the IDEAL Implant

I have been very impressed by this new type of breast implant. It has the softness of silicone breast implants with the convenience of saline-filled breast implants. Because of the internal baffles, there is much less rippling and wrinkling of the outer shell compared to standard saline implants. Thus it gives an augmentation effect much like a silicone implant. When it ruptures (as all implants do eventually) it releases simple salt water which is absorbed by the body. A silicone implant that has ruptured releases silicone gel into the implant pocket which is not specifically dangerous but can lead to contracture of the implant capsule and does need to be thoroughly washed out when the implant is changed. The FDA recommends that women who get silicone implants undergo an MRI every couple of years to help detect rupture. The IDEAL implant solves this problem. Below are some specifics about the implant. Please contact my office to come in and have me demonstrate the ideal implant to you!

DESIGN

Years of research and testing led to this innovative design, developed to better meet the needs of women wanting a natural look and feel without concerns relating to silicone gel. A series of implant shells nested together and two separate chambers hold the saline filler. The unique internal structure controls the movement of the saline for a more natural feel, while reducing folding and wrinkling, thought to be the main cause of implant rupture and deflation. On the outside, the edges have been lowered for more natural contouring to the chest wall.

MATERIAL

IDEAL IMPLANT is a Structured Breast Implant made from safe and proven breast implant materials and time-tested manufacturing processes. It contains no silicone gel or new materials, yet offers a natural feel and beautiful shape due to its unique design and internal structure. And because the design is patented, no other breast implant company can manufacture or sell the IDEAL IMPLANT Structured Breast Implants®.

EXPERIENCE

The IDEAL IMPLANT was approved by FDA and Health Canada in 2014, based on results from a multi-center US clinical trial with 502 women that started in 2009. The approved IDEAL IMPLANT is made in the United States using advanced robotics to achieve greater product consistency. Our FDA-inspected facility has been manufacturing silicone medical devices for over 30 years. Quality is built-in and a limited warranty is included, so you can feel confident in your choice of the IDEAL IMPLANT.
