Therefore, these women with shapeless breasts and looking for a better operation at a very good price / quality opt for the medical tourism in order to safely and effectively regain attractive breasts, self-confidence and self-esteem.
The mammal augmentation Prosthesis surgery in Tunisia is one of the most requested cosmetic surgery procedures, as it provides satisfactory results. Tunisian cosmetic clinics have expert staff in this field and make the safety of their patients a priority by ensuring the importation of medical devices approved by the FDA, ANSM, Health Canada, etc.
That said, discover in this article the types and brands of prosthetics used in Tunisia!
Types of prosthesis for breast cosmetic surgery
The type of breast prosthesis is one of the crucial decisions for every woman who resorts to a mammoplasty increase.
Choosing between smooth and textured implants (macro or micro) is crucial to the success and longevity of your breast surgery. Therefore, you should learn all about the differences and benefits of these two types of implants.
Benefits of Textured Breast Implants
Due to their rough surface, textured implants increase friction between the implant and its surroundings, making it more likely to remain in the position where it was inserted. Migration is therefore less likely to occur when the textured implant is placed under the pectoral muscle.
The pose of thebreast implant "Subpectoral" means that the device is sandwiched between the pectoral muscle covering its front surface, and the base of the implant rests on your curved ribs. Contraction of the muscle when using your arms applies force to the front and inner surface of the implant, tending to push it sideways and downward. The capsule that your body forms around a textured implant expands into the rough surface of the implant, allowing it to resist downward and outward displacement by dynamic muscle force.
There are Macro-Textured prostheses (very rough or very strong texturing) and Micro-Textured prostheses (not very rough or very fine texturing).
Macro-Textured implants have not been used in Tunisia since 2019. They are in fact associated with an increased risk of developing anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), which is a type of cancer.
For this reason, only Micro-Textured prostheses are used in aesthetic clinics in Tunisia during breast augmentation by prosthesis.
Benefits of Smooth Shell Breast Implants
Smooth-surface implants may be advantageous when the implant position is subglandular (in front of the pectoralis major muscle). To produce a soft implant that takes on a natural shape, the prosthesis shell should not be completely filled during the manufacturing process. This allows the implant to change shape like the natural breast with changes in body position.
The smooth implant is transparent and may be more likely to shift during movement. But don't worry! Our experts examine the shape of your natural breast during the pre-operative consultation before proceeding with breast augmentation, thus significantly reducing the risk of migration.
You will also discuss with one of our specialists the solution with which the implant will be filled: silicone gel ou physiological serum (known as saline prosthesis).
Approved breast prosthesis brands
Tunisia, which currently has no breast implant manufacturer, imports implants designed by brands approved by the European Medicines Agency, the National Agency for the Safety of Medicines and Health Products (ANSM), and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), such as:
- Mentor: (brand of the Johnson & Johnson company): This is also a popular brand among surgeons. It is also one of the favorite brands among surgeons due to its safety and good results. Its cohesion III implant is the strongest and most durable that exists. This French brand offers a mid-range prosthesis but not of lower quality than the previous ones, quite the contrary. These prostheses are very safe, durable and are made with high-quality materials. They are more economical than high-end prostheses and many surgeons therefore use them. They are very often used and chosen by patients.
- Polytech: This is another commonly used German brand. The implants are often coated with an additional diffusion barrier layer to prevent cracks and leaks. Some implants are coated with Microthane, which helps reduce the risk of muscle contractures. This is another commonly used brand of implants. This British-made implant features a softer cohesive gel than others, resulting in a more natural appearance and a softer feel. In terms of quality, safety, and durability, this implant meets all European Union requirements, making it very reliable.
