Cohesive Gel Breast Implants Give Our Canada Patients Outstanding Results

Cohesive gel breast implants offer a new breast augmentation option for our Ontario, Canada patients. Used in Europe beginning in 1995, cohesive gel implants received special approval from Health and Welfare Canada in 2000. Because these revolutionary implants are made of solid silicone, they cannot leak if the outer shell breaks. Regardless of any trauma a cohesive gel breast implant might suffer, it will retain its shape and pose no danger to the patient. Dr. Lista has helped hundreds of patients achieve the soft and natural enhanced look they were seeking with cohesive gel breast implants. Our patients from throughout Canada often decide to undergo face lift, BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment, laser wrinkle removal, or rhinoplasty in conjunction with their breast augmentation with implants for a complete aesthetic makeover.

For some patients, cohesive gel breast implants provide advantages over saline implants. Cohesive gel implants are especially effective in helping very thin patients achieve the look they desire because they can placed above the chest muscle without the rippling or visibility that can occur with saline implants. The solid silicone construction allows cohesive gel implants to be manufactured in a variety of sizes and shapes. This is good news for our patients who wish to alter the shape of their breasts. Cohesive gel breast implants have been especially helpful for our patients who suffer a condition such as a tuberous breast deformity to regain breast shape and self-confidence.

Additionally, cohesive gel breast implants have helped patients from Oakville, Brampton, Mississauga, Toronto, and throughout Canada who have droopy, or ptotic, breasts. Droopy breasts can occur naturally or as the result of giving birth or nursing. Cohesive gel implants have a textured, Velcro-like surface that, in combination with the solid-silicone construction of the implant, lifts and holds droopy breasts. To achieve optimal lifting and to create a perky appearance, cohesive gel breast implants must be placed above the chest muscle rather than behind it. In this type of procedure, the smooth texture of cohesive gel breast implants helps to ensure that patients experience none of the rippling that can occur with saline implants. The before-and-after photos at the bottom of the page demonstrate the excellent lift that cohesive gel implants can provide.

It is important to keep in mind that for some patients, saline breast implants are a better choice than cohesive gel breast implants. Many patients at our Canada plastic surgery clinic find that they can achieve the same look with either kind of implant. For them, because cohesive gel implants are much more expensive that saline implants, the choice may be obvious. Patients should also consider that because cohesive gel implants are solid, a larger incision is required to insert the implant.
