The first type is breast implant augmentation. Saline breast implants are filled with sterile saline solution. If they rupture, the body will naturally absorb the saline. Silicone breast implants, on the other hand, are made of silicone gel. They feel more natural but require regular check-ups as the gel might leak into the breast if the implant breaks.

Form-stable breast implants, often called gummy bear implants, keep their shape even if the shell breaks. They are firmer and need a longer incision. Round breast implants make the breasts look fuller, and smooth breast implants offer the softest feel with more natural breast movement. Textured breast implants are less likely to move around but have a rare risk of causing BIA-ALCL.

Fat transfer breast augmentation is another option. Surgeons use liposuction to take fat from areas like the belly, flanks, back or thighs and then inject it into the breasts. This method is suitable for those who want a relatively small increase in breast size and prefer a more natural approach without using implants.

It's crucial to discuss with a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine which type of breast augmentation procedure is best for you, considering factors such as your body type, desired results and medical history.
