Brustimplantate

Breast implants are applied in a larger number each year. To prevent an adverse interaction with the body, bioinert materials are used for the fabrication, with silicones playing a major role both for the shell and the filling. Physiological saline solution is also used as biocompativble filling material. As long as biomaterials with a high purity are used, the application of breast implants can be considered as medically safe.
