What are MemoryGel™ Smooth Round Moderate Plus Profile Breast Implants? What are their advantages and disadvantages?

As the name suggests the MemoryGel™ Smooth Round Moderate Plus Profile Breast Implants are round in shape (not anatomically shaped), have a moderate plus profile (not too low, but more perky), and are encased in a smooth silicone elastomer shell. The advantages of using textured versus smooth breast implants are discussed in another section of this text, but are more related to physician preference, and beliefs regarding skin palpability than scientific data. The biggest advantage of the round moderate plus profile breast implants is a compromise between upper pole fullness, cleavage, and projection. It is a sort of “jack-of-all trades, master of none.” Because it does not emphasize one aspect of the implanted breast over another the augmentation takes place throughout, producing a full, rounded appearance. In addition, the use of silicone allows for the use of the MemoryGel™ Smooth Round Moderate Profile Breast Implants in breasts with less skin and soft tissue cover. Some physicians prefer to use the larger size breast implants in moderate breast ptosis (sagging breasts) to avoid extra incisions. Use of silicone implants, because of their consistency, is ideal in such cases, especially when the lower pole of the breast has little soft tissue cover. The particular proprietary polymer employed in the Mentor devices is a cohesive gel that is purported to have more consistency such that even in cases of ruptured breast implants it is said not to leak as fast or as much. Because it does not emphasize one aspect of the implanted breast over another the augmentation takes place throughout, producing a full, rounded appearance. The Plus Profile Breast Implants does, however add a bit more projection, or the protuberance noted on side view at a slight expense to the width of the breast, and thus the cleavage. The obvious disadvantage to the moderate plus round breast implants is that if one particular area of concern needs special attention, a more specialized implant will give better improvement than an all-purpose breast implant.
