Abstract
As of 2012, breast augmentation surgery continues to be the most commonly performed aesthetic surgical procedure in the United States. Surgeons consider a multitude of factors when choosing the type and style of breast implant for a patient. With the continuous evolution of breast implant designs, there are a variety of breast implant options for plastic surgeons to choose from; however, round implants remain the implant of choice for breast augmentation. This article discusses preoperative planning, implant selection, surgical techniques, and postoperative management using Sientra's Silimed brand smooth and textured round implants.
