When it comes to breast implants, it's important to know your options. That's because every woman's body is different. The Natrelle Collection offers over 140 breast implant combinations from type of filler and volume to base width and profile to help you find the fit you want. Since the entire Natrelle Collection is FDA approved and backed by 25 years of Allergan innovation, it's a name you can trust.
Your body is like no other. Before recommending an implant, your surgeon will measure the symmetry and width of your breasts, and evaluate your breast tissue characteristics. These measurements help your surgeon decide which size and shape are right for you.
Projection is the distance your breast implants extend outward from your chest wall. A higher projection can be another way to give the impression of larger breast size without actually increasing volume and diameter. Natrelle breast implants come in three distinct profiles to help you find the best match for your body.
Today's silicone touches virtually every part of our lives. The more you learn about silicone, the more comfortable you will be if you decide Natrelle silicone-filled breast implants are right for you.
Silicones are a family of chemical compounds. They are made from silicon, a naturally occurring element found in sand, quartz and rock. Next to oxygen, silicon is the most common element in the earth's crust. It becomes silicone when it's combined with oxygen, carbon and hydrogen.
Products made with silicone
Because they are so versatile, silicones have been safely used in everyday products, as well as medical devices, for over 50 years.
Silicones appear in a wide variety of products that most of us use every day, such as hairsprays, suntan lotions, moisturizing creams, deodorants, soaps, processed foods, coatings of fruits and vegetables, and even baby pacifiers.
Many medical devices use silicone. These include artificial joints, catheters, facial implants, heart valves, pacemakers, tissue expanders and breast implants. MYLICON drops for infants also contain silicone. Silicone products have been shown to be biocompatible, reliable, flexible and easy to sterilize, making them an ideal choice for both implantable and non-implantable medical devices.
FDA approval of today's silicone gel-filled implants
The FDA has evaluated and determined that Natrelle silicone filled breast implants are safe for use in breast augmentation and reconstruction surgery. This is supported by nearly ten years of research on 50,000 women by Allergan. The unique qualities of today's silicone gel-filled breast implants help make it the filler of choice for patients in countries where both saline-filled and silicone gel-filled breast implants are widely available. Every silicone gel filled breast implant in the Natrelle Collection uses today's silicone.
