Cover surface: there are implants with a textured, microtextured and smooth surface. They are made of a silicone gel shell that works as a barrier layer. These covers are designed to be strong, durable, and control gel spreading.

Implant placement: The breast implant can be placed in a different depth or in a different plane, the greater or lesser visibility of the implant, its shape and the risk of complications will depend on it.

• Sub Muscular: The prosthesis is placed below the pectoralis major muscle, the plane is deeper.
• Sub Glandular: Below the gland and above the muscle.
• Sub fascial: Below the fascia (ultra-thin layer that covers the pectoral muscle) is similar to the subglandular.
• Bi planar: It is a combination of submuscular and subglandular.
