LIFE Plastic Surgery, Korea: teardrop implant

Breast implants come in a variety of "profiles"

The profile indicates the distance that the implant will project from your body.
A higher profile breast implant will create, a more prominent silhouette than a lower profile breast implant.

These profiles are designed to create different looks.

Breast implants can be classified into 4 profiles:

Classifying breast implants by shape:

- Round shape

- Teardrop shape

Many patients prefer teardrop implants these days since they give the most "natural" look.

Teardrop implants slope downward just like natural breasts and they are recommended for patients who want to get the most natural look.

The upper slope of the breast will take to be more natural.

Round implants tend to make breasts project more. They are recommended for those who want more fullness in the upper part of the breast.

They are placed under the muscle, and since they don't move much, they almost always keep their round shape.

To determine the ideal implant types, the width of breast and tissue needs to be taken into consideration with a qualified surgeon at your consultation.
