Gummy Bear Implants in Houston

New Form of Teardrop-Shaped Breast Implants

While some women are blessed with their ideal bust line, many women wish they had just a bit more curve to fill out their shape and create a nicer look in clothing. This is especially true of women in the entertainment and fashion industries, where they’d simply like to cut a nicer figure in front of the camera.

Whether you’re in the public eye or not, enhancing your bust has become much easier with modern advancements in breast augmentation. Now, a new teardrop-shaped “gummy bear” implant can give women the realistic look and natural firmness traditional implants can’t necessarily achieve.

What Are “Gummy Bear” Implants?

Gummy bear implants are a unique new form of implants that use a highly cohesive, high-strength silicone gel to keep their shape. Although they’re not really called gummy bear implants, they’ve earned that nickname due to the gel material’s soft but sturdy ability to hold its shape when cut into (like a gummy bear when it’s bitten). Professionally, they’re also often referred to as teardrop implants or form-stable implants.
What's the Difference?

Teardrop (Gummy Bear) vs. Traditional Round Implants

While traditional implants are still a viable option for women looking to improve their shape, high-strength gel implants are a very reliable way to achieve a natural look and feel. Traditional round-shaped implants filled with saline or a softer silicone gel are less capable of holding their shape and require a bit more work to create a natural-looking result.

The new high-strength gel-contoured implants may also be safer for patients, as their durable shape means a reduced risk of implant rupture. The implants can take a great deal of force, even from direct trauma, without damage. Traditional implants containing more liquid materials are susceptible to bursting and leakage; although it’s rare, standard silicone implants do have a risk of leaking silicone into the breast tissue around the implant.

A Simple Solution for a Beautiful, Natural Look

Gummy bear implants are a great solution for any woman seeking breast augmentation with a more natural appearance and are especially good for thin women and women with naturally small breasts. The shape of the breast implants fits nicely into your existing tissues, enhancing them in the right areas while feeling more like a part of your own body. While not every patient will be a perfect fit for every type of implant, thin women with small breasts may want to look into this form of implant as an option.
