What is the Texture of a Breast Implant?

Written by - Dr. Studin

Answer: Implant shells are available in two textures: smooth and textured.

 

Textured implants help keep implants in place and prevent them from shifting their position.

 

Smooth breast implants have a higher rate of movement and are more likely to turn over.
