Nagor Breast Implants

FAQ

• What’s the difference between round and anatomical (tear drop shaped) implants?

  Round implants add volume to the upper part of the breast giving a lifted look, while contoured (anatomical) implants give a more discreet look more in keeping with the natural shape of the breast.

• What is ‘profile’?

  This is the ‘projection’ of the implant – so how far it will stand out. We make a variety of different profiles to fit different women and the looks they want to achieve. High and extra high are the largest, while medium and low are more subtle.

• Why are there so many different shapes and sizes?

  Because women are different shapes and sizes, and want to achieve different looks. Whether you’re considering curvy silhouette, would like to create small-but-perfectly-formed breasts, or restore fullness after losing weight. All will need a different shape, size and profile implant, so we offer an expansive range to choose from to find your perfect fit.

• How do I decide the size and shape that’s right for me?

  Breast size and shape should be something to talk about with our surgeon. You’ll also want to discuss whether to use round or anatomical shaped implants and review the many choices of size and weight available. Nagor implants come in a wide range of shapes, sizes and profiles.

  You’ll need to think before your consultation about the shape and overall size that you are seeking, then talk with your surgeon about which implants will get you as close to your desired shape as possible.

  Your body’s size and characteristics, along with your desire for a specific shape and size, will usually dictate what is possible. You should be aware that after implant surgery one woman’s breasts will be different to another’s even though the same implant size and shape were used – your natural breast tissue, amongst other things, affects the results.

• What if they’re too big or not big enough?

  Many women believe they will be too large after surgery and ask their surgeon to choose a smaller size than they actually want. However, you will likely become more comfortable with your new breast shape after surgery… in fact, many wish they had opted for a larger size after all, so keep that in mind.

  A good way to really to show you feel is to collect photos of breasts you admire and to discuss them with our surgeon.

• What if I want to go really big?

  It’s your body and it’s your choice. Some women desire a larger implant than fits their natural body proportions. However our surgeon must assess whether it is advisable, safe and in your best interests when evaluating the elasticity of your skin and other health factors.

• Will they look fake?

  It depends on what your goal is. Each woman’s body is different, and before and after photos of women who have had breast implant surgery aren’t always representative of what you’ll look like. If you want natural-looking results, our surgeon will advise you accordingly on the right implants for a natural enlargement.

• How long will my new breasts last?
  

  Your breast implants will need to be replaced during the course of your life. Implants are not lifetime devices and are subject to wear and tear like any other implant device e.g. Tooth fillings, heart valves, hip joints.
