Gummy bear implants are a type of silicone breast implant filled with a form-stable silicone gel. They are often called "gummy bear" implants because the gel maintains its shape, similar to the consistency of gummy bears. Unlike traditional silicone or saline implants, gummy bear implants are less likely to ripple or leak if damaged.

What are the benefits of choosing gummy bear implants for breast augmentation?

Benefits include a natural look and feel, reduced risk of rippling or leaking, and a lower chance of capsular contracture (scar tissue formation around the implant).

Are gummy bear implants safer than other types of breast implants?

The safety of gummy bear implants is comparable to traditional silicone implants. They are considered safe when used by experienced surgeons and monitored for potential complications.

How long do gummy bear implants typically last?

Gummy bear implants are designed to be durable and can last 10 years or more. However, individual results may vary.

What is the recovery process like after getting gummy bear implants?

Recovery involves rest, avoiding strenuous activities, and wearing a supportive bra. Full recovery usually takes several weeks.

Are there any risks or complications associated with gummy bear breast augmentation?

Potential risks include infection, implant rupture, implant malposition, and changes in breast sensation. Discuss these risks with your surgeon.

Can I choose the shape and size of my breasts with gummy bear implants?

Yes, you can choose the shape and size of your breasts in consultation with your surgeon, who will recommend options based on your goals and anatomy.

What is the difference between round and anatomical (teardrop-shaped) gummy bear implants?

Round implants provide fullness in the upper and lower parts of the breast, while anatomical implants mimic the shape of natural breasts with more fullness in the lower part.
