High Profile Saline Implants (description below photo)

The implant manufacturer, Mentor, has just come out with a new series of saline implants called the "High Profile Salines" or by catalogue number: 3000 series.

These saline implants have a markedly increased projection (height of the implant).

What this means is that normally in the standard saline implants, in order to get more projection, a larger and larger implant is necessary.

If a woman has a small chest diameter, the increased implant width is transmitted laterally toward the arm and vertically toward the neck. This may not look and feel proportional to her body. Now we can get the projection in smaller implants. In the photos, one can see that a 175 cc high profile implant has the equivalent projection as a 475 cc standard saline implant. When viewing these from above, the width difference can be appreciated.

For those who have been agonizing between saline vs. silicon to reduce the rippling effect of the outer shell, in comparison, the high profile salines are much smoother is seen in the photos even while demonstrating compression of the standard implant as seen in the body under the muscle.

This smoother outer shell becomes important laterally in women with very little breast tissue and fat. This significant improvement gives us a great alternative to silicon to reduce this effect of the standard salines.

To better appreciate these new "High Profile Saline" implants, I recommend you feeling them as compared to the standard implants. I hope this information is useful to those of you contemplating breast augmentation with saline implants.
