V. (b) Anatomic breast implants.

Five sizes are available, ranging from 360-380cc, to 780-820cc.	Five sizes are available, ranging from 230-240cc, to 650-685cc.	Ten sizes are available, ranging from 195-205cc, to 620-650cc

Because they are shaped in the form of a tear, the name teardrop implants was born. These implants are believed by some surgeons to give you a more natural look to the breast because it has the anatomic shape of a breast. However studies have shown them to be the same as the round breast implants. These breast implants may have some advantage in patients that are completely flat breasts or have no breast shape. However because the anatomic breast implants are textured they may have a firmer feel and a higher chance of rippling. These saline-filled breast Implants are shaped breast implants, and have the BIOCELL textured surface. Textured surface implants were designed to reduce the chance of capsular contracture (a hardening of the breast), and promote tissue adherence, which may help to maintain proper implant positioning.
