Types of Implants

Choosing the right implant type is a key part of achieving your desired result. At CDU, we offer a full range of breast implants to fit each patient's anatomy and goals:

• Silicone Implants:
  The most commonly used implants, filled with cohesive silicone gel, providing a natural feel and shape.
• Saline Implants:
  Filled with sterile salt water; adjustable volume but less commonly used due to a slightly firmer feel.
• Teardrop (Anatomical) Implants:
  Shaped to mimic the natural slope of the breast, often used for patients seeking a subtle, natural appearance.
• Round Implants:
  Provide more upper breast fullness, often chosen for patients seeking a fuller or more prominent look.

Our experienced surgeons help guide patients through these options to select the best implant for their body type and cosmetic goals.

Implant Brands Used at CDU

At CDU Plastic Surgery, we use only globally recognized, FDA-approved implant brands known for their safety, durability, and superior aesthetic results:

• Mentor (USA)
• Motiva (Europe)
• Sebbin (France)
• Polytech (Germany)

Each brand offers different features in terms of shell texture, gel consistency, and implant shape, allowing for truly personalized choices based on patient preferences and medical factors.

Surgical Techniques

The placement of the implant plays a crucial role in achieving both natural appearance and long-term stability. CDU’s board-certified surgeons use the following advanced techniques:

• Dual Plane Placement:
  A combination of submuscular and subglandular positioning, providing natural contour and reducing the risk of implant visibility.
• Submuscular Placement (Under the Muscle):
  Implant is placed fully beneath the chest muscle, offering more coverage and a very natural slope.
• Subglandular Placement (Above the Muscle):
  Placed beneath the breast tissue but above the muscle, sometimes suitable for patients with sufficient tissue thickness.

The choice of technique is carefully determined based on individual anatomy, skin thickness, and aesthetic goals.

Incision Options

CDU offers multiple incision options to minimize scarring and ensure optimal healing:

• Inframammary Incision:
  Hidden within the breast fold, the most common and widely preferred incision for excellent access and low scar visibility.
• Periareolar Incision:
  Made around the lower edge of the areola, offering discreet scarring and excellent placement accuracy.
• Transaxillary Incision:
  Performed through a small incision in the armpit, leaving no scar on the breast itself.

Each incision method is selected based on the patient’s body, preferences, and implant type.

Safety Considerations

Safety is the foundation of every procedure at CDU Plastic Surgery. We strictly follow global safety standards, ensuring:

• Certified operating rooms with advanced monitoring systems
• Strict sterilization protocols
• Use of FDA-approved, high-quality implants
• Careful pre-operative evaluations to minimize risks
• Close post-operative follow-up for safe healing and excellent long-term results
