Increasing Focus on Aesthetic Appeal to Boost Adoption of Cosmetic Implants

Posted by Sachin CMI on December 4th, 2020

There has been a tremendous increase in the number of cosmetic surgeries worldwide. As a result, competition in the cosmetic surgery industry has risen dramatically with many cosmetic surgeons outsourcing their cosmetic surgical practices to other countries. As a result, the prices of many standard cosmetic surgeries have declined significantly, allowing patients to have access to advanced cosmetic surgery procedures at a fraction of the cost in the United States. Increasing focus on aesthetic appeal among men and women has led to increasing demand for cosmetic implants in the recent past. Cosmetic implants are medical devices that are used to augment the size of or improve the appearance of various body parts such as breasts and lips.

Breast augmentation, also known as breast enlargement, is a popular surgical procedure that improves size and shape of the breast. The procedure involves use of breast implants and fat, called as fat transfer breast augmentation, in order to enhance and improve the size of the breasts. In clinical terms, breast augmentation is referred to as augmentation mammoplasty. Following are the types of breast implants: silicone breast implants and saline breast implants. Silicone breast implants were first introduced in the U.S. in the year 1962. Silicone breast implants have high strength silicone gel that is textured with silicone shell. In 2006 FDA approved use of silicone gel filled breast implants in the U.S. They are characterized by silicone outer shell with a silicone gel filler. The first saline breast implant was approved in the year 2000. Saline breast implants consist of a silicone shell with a sterile saltwater (saline). Some of the implants are prefilled and some are filled during the breast augmentation procedure.
