For many women seeking to enhance their physical appearance in Northwest Indiana, breast implants may be an option.  Up until recently women have only had the choice of using saline filled breast implants.  In November of 2007, the FDA approved silicone breast implants safe for use in the United States.  Silicone implants have the advantages of feeling more like a natural breast and weighing less than saline, which over time could possibly lessen the risk of ptosis.  The new silicone gel implants are also created with a thick gel that does not bleed in the event of a rupture.  There has been over 14 years of extensive testing on the safety of silicone gel implants, more than any other medical device or drug.  To learn more about your breast implant choices, contact Indiana Plastic Surgery today for your free consultation.Dr. David Robinson is board certified by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and can help you make an informed decision on whether breast implants are right for you.
