Identify by scars
You won’t be able to figure it out by touch, despite numerous tips on the Internet. It was previously claimed that silicone breasts are denser. But this only applies to old-type implants that have not been used for a long time. If the appropriate size is chosen, and the surgeon places the implant under the muscle tissue, then it is impossible to distinguish by touch.
Modern technologies no longer require an incision under the breasts. Long scars are a thing of the past. Now the capsule is installed through an incision near the nipple or in the armpit, and then the contents are pumped into it. This approach allows you to avoid scars, speed up healing and reduce pain after surgery. Scars and palpation will not be the answer to the question of how to distinguish real breasts.
Beautiful silicone breasts: how to choose the best implants?
2.1 Types of endoprostheses based on filler
Depending on the type of filler, endoprostheses are divided into:
- silicone;
- saline;
- bioimplanted;
- filled with silica gel.
Saline implants appeared a long time ago; they belong to the very first generation of endoprostheses. Externally, such a prosthesis resembles a silicone bag filled with saline solution. They are filled before or during surgery through a special valve. In the second case, a smaller incision is made on the patient’s body. Saline implants offer the possibility of manual correction of the breast after surgery.
The main disadvantage of such prostheses is the frequent occurrence of shell rupture or damage. In this case, there is a need for repeated surgery and restoration of the aesthetic appearance of the mammary gland, although the liquid inside the implant is completely harmless to human health. Some women note characteristic gurgling sounds during movement among the disadvantages of such implants.
You can install saline endoprostheses from the age of 18. From the same age, operations to enlarge the bust as a whole are permitted.
Types of implants
Silicone implants appeared much later than saline implants, in 1991. They look like a multilayer elastomeric shell filled with gel. In this case, different fillers are used:
- 1. Highly cohesive dense gel, tactilely reminiscent of marmalade. This substance is capable of remembering the shape of the prosthesis. This gel does not deform and does not leak when the shell breaks. The disadvantage of such breasts is the unnatural appearance of the mammary gland and its unusual hardness when touched.
- 2. Standard cohesive gel has a jelly-like texture. Such an implant gives the breast a natural, beautiful shape, but if the shell ruptures, it will leak out, although it will not harm the woman’s health.
- 3. Soft Touch gel resembles highly cohesive, but less dense. Its texture is more like jelly and has fewer negative qualities.
Implants with silicone fillers are used most often, as they make it possible to give the mammary gland a beautiful natural shape. They can even be installed under the mammary gland, since, unlike others, they do not give the effect of wrinkling. Due to the fact that when the shell ruptures, its contents do not leak out, such endoprostheses are recognized as the safest. The disadvantage of them is the need to make large cuts for installation. After surgery, the woman will need to undergo regular examinations to identify possible ruptures.
Bioimplants, also called hydrogel, are filled with a special natural polymer that is completely safe for health. If the shell of such an implant ruptures, the contents break down into carbon dioxide, water and glucose and dissolve in the human body.
Hydrogel implant
The advantage of such implants is a wide variety of sizes and shapes, as well as the absence of the need to undergo special, expensive examinations to identify possible damage. They also have disadvantages: high cost and the likelihood of hydrogel leaking through the shell, which over time leads to changes in the size and shape of the mammary gland.
Silica gel endoprostheses are filled with microscopic silicate beads. This allows you to significantly reduce the weight of the prosthesis and reduce the likelihood of breast ptosis over time.
Bodybuilding and model appearance2
Adipose tissue gives girls feminine features, such as curvy hips and rounded breasts. This is how nature intended. The desire to live up to the ideal forces you to get rid of any percentage of fat. It is extremely rare for a thin girl to have breasts larger than size 2.
If in front of a man is a bodybuilding enthusiast whose body is “dried” and the relief is visible right down to the veins, then the breasts should be very small. The bodybuilder has large breasts - silicone implants.
A skinny model with breasts of at least size 2 is already an exception. If in front of a man is a tall, very thin girl with a large bust, then most likely she was helped by the skillful hands of a surgeon rather than by Mother Nature.
Ekaterina, 21 years old
“I had my breasts done 2 years ago. I chose a teardrop shape to make it look more natural. I’ve been living with Vadik for a year now, and he still doesn’t realize it. It looks real and feels the same. I myself sometimes forget about the silicone inside. I would also like to have my buttocks done, but finances don’t allow it yet.”
Photo gallery Breast augmentation surgery
Every woman dreams of looking beautiful, regardless of her age, status, or occupation. Some people get ideal breast shapes from birth, while other women achieve perfection through plastic surgery. Mammoplasty is a surgical procedure during which breast enlargement occurs using silicone implants.
If you want to undergo breast augmentation surgery, photos before and after surgical correction of the mammary glands will allow you to make the final decision. In the photographs presented on the site, you can see breast imperfections in women that prompted them to seek help from a plastic surgeon, as well as the final result of mammoplasty. The new breasts take on a beautiful shape and large size.
If a woman suffered from ptosis (drooping) of the breasts before surgery, then the plastic surgeon performs a one-stage breast augmentation and tightening. Thanks to plastic surgery, it is possible to get rid of age-related ptosis and eliminate breast sagging after childbirth.
Look at the photo of the breast after breast augmentation with implants, where you will see the scars that arise as a result of the skin incision. Thanks to the photographs, you can decide on the methods of breast correction:
- Submammary access. During plastic surgery, the plastic surgeon inserts an implant into the breast through a small incision along the inframammary sulcus. As you can see, after breast augmentation in the photos before and after surgery, the suture with submammary access is practically invisible.
- Periareolar augmentation of small breasts - before and after photos of the surgery allow you to see where the incision is. The surgeon cuts the tissue along the areola line, due to which the scar after mammoplasty remains almost invisible.
- Axillary access. Breast augmentation with implants is carried out using endoscopic technology, which is inserted through an incision in the armpit. The main advantage of breast augmentation (photos before and after surgery using this method are also available on the website of plastic surgeon Lelikov K.S.) is the absence of scars on the mammary glands.
Sign up for a consultation at the aesthetic surgery clinic of Lelikova K.S. - an outstanding plastic surgeon in Moscow. The doctor will select the optimal method for performing mammoplasty surgery and show additional photos of patients after breast augmentation.
Signs of artificial breasts3
An attentive man knows how to distinguish real breasts from silicone ones. Three signs indicate implants:
- Immobility.
- Unnatural position.
- Explicit separation.
When moving, running, or actively gesturing, natural breasts will move as part of the body. But the capsules are not part of the covering or muscle tissue, and therefore during active movement the artificial breast remains motionless.
Natural breasts look different in and without a bra. But implants are designed to make the figure ideal, so as not to resort to the help of shapewear. Silicone breasts look the same both with and without a bra. Highly raised, without sagging.
The cleavage looks sexy. Even with large natural breasts, they are less noticeable if the girl lies on her back. If the breasts are silicone, then:
- the valley is too sharp;
- does not disappear even when changing body position;
- Does not change position, even if the girl lies on her back or bends over.
Victoria, 24 years old
“And my husband immediately realized that my breasts were artificial. I weigh 46 kilograms with a height of 165. And breast size is third size. He immediately suspected something was wrong, but he felt no different. I myself noticed that it is easy to distinguish in the hall. I run on the track, but my chest doesn’t bounce like other people’s, and that only makes me happy.”
Types of Round Breast Implants
All round-shaped implants can be divided into varieties based on materials and other specific features:
- According to the filling material – silicone, hydrogel, silica gel. All materials are biocompatible and safe for the body; upon contact with mammary tissue, they do not cause infection or inflammation. Fillers vary in density, structure, viscosity, consistency and weight;
- According to the shell material - in most cases, dense durable silicone, polyurethane or proprietary materials from manufacturers are used for the production of implants;
- Volume – varies from 100 to 800 ml (the sizing chart is slightly different for different manufacturers) and allows you to choose the best option for breast enlargement of any original size to the desired size.
- Surface type – smooth, microtextured, nanotextured. Micro- and nanotextured ones are considered more reliable options because they have higher biocompatibility, stimulate the process of formation of a thin capsule around the implant and ensure faster engraftment without complications.
- Profile type – low profile, high, extra high and medium profile. The higher the profile, the more voluminous the breasts look after surgery. The profile is selected by the plastic surgeon strictly individually. An important role in choosing it is played by the patient’s body structure, the initial bust size and the volume that needs to be added.
Each parameter is important, therefore, when selecting an endoprosthesis, all features and nuances are taken into account. Even a minor detail can affect the result and make it not as expected.
Anatomical implants in augmentation mammoplasty
As you can see in the photo above, anatomical breast implants have a characteristic teardrop shape: narrow with a pointed top, systematically expanding and increasing in volume at the bottom.
The point of maximum projection for such prostheses is located below the center of their height and is shifted to the lower part. This corresponds to the natural structure of the mammary glands, so drop-shaped endoprostheses are visually impossible to distinguish from real breasts. However, if in an upright position they look natural, then when a woman lies down, the implants do not “blur” like real breasts.
They can have different base widths, projection sizes, and profiles, which allows you to choose the right model for any occasion.

In what cases are teardrop-shaped implants used?
Drop-shaped endoprostheses follow the natural contours of the mammary glands; breasts with anatomical implants look as natural and harmonious as possible. They are used for the following indications:
- after amputation of the mammary glands for medical reasons;
- for breast reconstruction after mammary gland injury;
- to eliminate mastoptosis;
- correction of breast asymmetry;
- to increase the volume of small breasts.
When the patient’s breasts are enlarged by one or two sizes and the initial small size of the patient’s breasts, drop-shaped implants demonstrate excellent results - they look natural, take root quickly and do not cause discomfort.
