Every year, I see progress in the development of realistic breast implants, and now our breast augmentation patients are taking advantage of the new cohesive-gel silicone implants known as "gummy bears." I have been involved in the clinical trials of these new Sientra implants, which were recently approved by the FDA. My years of experience with breast enhancement procedures made me realize that gummy bears were something special.
I nicknamed them gummy bear breast implants because the feel and texture are similar to gummy bear candy. Even though they hold their shape, they are still extremely soft and flexible and have a very natural look and feel. Allure (http://tiny.cc/2r8qhw) magazine and online blogs picked up the news and explained what differentiates gummy bear implants from the previous silicone varieties. These gummy bear implants are just one example of the many advances taking place in plastic surgery. Other procedures we do in Los Angeles like breast reduction and breast lifts are also being refined to offer patients safer, more natural-looking results.
So if you are thinking about breast implants, learn more about gummy bears by watching these videos.
