Round Silicone Implants
Are Round Silicone Implants Right For You?
Breast augmentation with round breast implants is one of the most popular procedures we perform at Aristocrat Plastic Surgery. Round implants have a spherical shape and are completely symmetrical. Round implants provide the most fullness at the top of the breasts, so they are optimal if you’re searching for a bigger cleavage and overall rounder shape.
Determining if round silicone implants are right for you requires careful consideration of your aesthetic goals, body type, and personal preferences. First, consult with Aristocrat’s board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Kevin Tehrani, who can assess your unique anatomy and discuss your desired breast size and shape.
Round silicone implants are known for providing a fuller and rounder appearance compared to teardrop-shaped implants. If you’re seeking a more dramatic, voluminous look with enhanced cleavage, round implants may be suitable. Also, consider factors like your lifestyle, activity level, and recovery expectations. Round implants tend to be softer and more flexible, offering a natural feel and movement. Ultimately, an open and honest discussion with Dr. Tehrani will help determine if round silicone implants are in sync with your cosmetic objectives and individual circumstances.

Who Is A Candidate for Round Silicone Implants?
The biggest advantage of round implants is that even if they move inside the breast, they won’t change the appearance of the breast.
With the abundance of various options, it’s not an easy task to pick the type of implant that is right for you. That’s why we recommend scheduling a consultation with board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Kevin Tehrani. He will help determine which implants will help meet your aesthetic goals.
An ideal candidate for round silicone implants is typically someone who desires a fuller and rounder breast appearance with a natural feel. This candidate often has specific characteristics and preferences:
- Aesthetic Goals: The ideal candidate seeks an enhancement that results in a rounder breast shape, with an emphasis on upper fullness and cleavage.
- Overall Health: Good physical and mental health is essential, as surgery requires anesthesia and a period of recovery.
- Realistic Expectations: The candidate understands the limitations of breast augmentation and has reasonable expectations about the outcome.
- Body Proportions: A balanced and appropriate body proportion can help achieve the desired aesthetic result, as overly large implants on a petite frame may not be suitable.
- Lifestyle Considerations: Consideration of one's lifestyle, including physical activity and clothing preferences, is crucial in choosing implants that align with daily activities.
- Commitment to Post-surgical care: Ideal candidates are committed to post-surgery care, including follow-up appointments and potential future implant maintenance or replacement.
- Consultation with a Surgeon: A consultation with Aristocrat Plastic Surgery's lead surgeon, Dr. Kevin Tehrani, is crucial to assess individual candidacy, discuss options, and tailor the treatment plan to the patient's unique needs and goals.
Ultimately, the ideal candidate for round silicone implants is someone who prioritizes both the aesthetic outcome and their overall well-being, while being well-informed and realistic about the process and results.

Frequently
Asked Questions
What is the main appeal of round implants?
They often provide more fullness in the upper breast, leading to a more pronounced cleavage.
Do round implants look unnatural?
Not necessarily. Placement technique and size choice greatly influence the final look. Many achieve very natural results.
Are they more prone to rippling?
Rippling risk varies by implant shell, fill type, and the amount of existing breast tissue. Silicone generally reduces this risk.
Can round implants shift position?
They’re symmetrical, so if they rotate in the pocket, it’s less noticeable compared to shaped implants.
How do I choose between round and shaped?
It depends on your aesthetic goals and anatomy. Dr. Tehrani will guide you through both options.
