410 gummy bear implants
The Allergan Natrelle Style 410 is one of the most popular “gummy bear” breast implants available today. It offers many benefits over traditional implants and was approved by the FDA earlier this year. It comes in 12 different shapes, varying in volume, projection, and height. This means that patients have more customization options. And since the 410 implants is shaped like a teardrop, the upper pole stays full even when seated upright.
Dr. Lewis Obi is a board-certified plastic surgeon in Jacksonville, Florida. He was one of the first plastic surgeons in the U.S. to offer the Natrelle 410 Gummy Bear implant to patients. He developed a new implant selection tool and a plastic surgeon education curriculum for Allergan. His experience in the field of plastic surgery has made him a national leader in the field. To learn more about his experience with this breast implant, contact Dr. Obi’s Jacksonville office or visit her website.
Shapes available
If you’ve been thinking about getting a silicone breast implant, you’ve probably wondered what shapes are available. Thankfully, there are several different shapes to choose from. Gummy bear breast implants, for example, mimic the teardrop shape of a natural breast, meaning they’re fuller in the lower half and tapered up to the top. They’re a great option for women who would like to give their breasts a more natural look. But, if you’d rather have a teardrop shape, you may want to consider a different shape.

Whether you’re interested in enhancing your femininity, correcting a congenital defect, or reconstructing your breasts after a mastectomy, Dr. Naidu will help you decide on the best type of implant for you.
Price
While traditional silicone implants may be the standard choice for most women, the price of a gummy bear breast implant isn’t as low as many people think. These implants have special features that set them apart from the more popular types of breast augmentation surgery. However, you should still consult your plastic surgeon before choosing a gummy bear implant for your breast augmentation. They may be a good option if you want to get a more natural look.
The price of a gummy bear breast implant is around PS3,500, which is nearly double the price of a silicone-filled implant. They’re also slightly firmer and require a larger space to insert. Because of these advantages, the price of a gummy bear implant is often more expensive than a silicone implant. They may not last as long as a traditional silicone breast implant but may last for fifteen to twenty years, which is more than enough time to pay for them.
Leak rate
Compared to silicone gel-based implants, gummy bear implants tend to have a much lower leak rate. The reason for this is the gel inside these implants tends to stick together and adhere to one another, making them less likely to rupture or leak. However, unlike traditional silicone implants, which are filled with liquid silicone gel, gummy bear implants do leak if the outer shell is broken. Because of this, they may not be the best choice for women who don’t want to risk a rupture.
Although the leak rate of gummy bear breast implants is relatively low, it may still be higher than that of cohesive gel breast implants. These silicone implants may have a lower leak rate and a higher capsular contracture rate, but they tend to feel too firm and require a larger incision than other silicone breast implants. But while these breast implants have lower leak rates, they do come with the same risks as other implants.
Placement
In most cases, gummy bear implants are the choice for women seeking a natural-looking, firmer-feeling set of breasts. The silicone gel inside these implants retains their shape, and they do not rupture. These implants are also known as cohesive silicone gel implants, and they are considered a more durable alternative to traditional saline and silicone implants. There are three options for placement, and knowing which one is best for you will ensure you achieve the most natural-looking results.
The incision is designed to be inconspicuous, with small incisions made in the inframammary fold, if applicable. The incision is long enough to create a pocket, but it may be slightly shorter or deeper than the natural incision. The surgeon then inserts the implants into the pocket, either over or under the muscle. During the procedure, a temporary implant is placed to determine the size and position of the new breasts. The final implant is selected after a patient sits, so the scar can be hidden under the inframammary fold.
