UNDERSTANDING BREAST IMPLANT OPTIONS IN COLUMBIA

Columbia and Baltimore area patients have multiple breast implant
options to help them achieve their aesthetic goals. Selecting the
right implant involves careful consideration of materials, size, and
surgical technique.

IMPLANT MATERIALS: SALINE VS. SILICONE

SALINE IMPLANTS

 	* Filled with sterile saltwater solution
	* Inserted empty and filled after placement
	* Smaller incision requirement
	* Less expensive option
	* Approved for patients 18 and older

SILICONE IMPLANTS

 	* Filled with medical-grade silicone
	* More natural look and feel
	* Prefilled, requiring slightly larger incisions
	* Average lifespan of approximately 20 years
	* Approved for patients 22 and older

SURGICAL INCISION TECHNIQUES

Dr. Nadya Clarke offers multiple incision approaches tailored to
individual patient needs:

 	* Inframammary: Under breast fold, minimal sensation risk
	* Periareolar: Around nipple, well-camouflaged scar
	* Transaxillary: Through armpit, no breast scarring

PERSONALIZED IMPLANT SELECTION

Implant sizing goes beyond cup measurements. Surgeons recommend sizes
based on body proportions, frame, and individual aesthetic goals.
Precise measurements using cubic centimeters ensure optimal results.

IMPLANT PLACEMENT STRATEGIES

Implants can be positioned submuscular (under chest muscle) or
subglandular (above muscle). Submuscular placement typically reduces
complications and provides more natural-looking outcomes.

KEY PLACEMENT CONSIDERATIONS

 	* Reduces risk of implant rippling
	* Minimizes capsular contracture potential
	* Recommended for patients with limited breast tissue
