What are gummy bear cohesive gels, and why did you search them out?

Advantages of “Gummy Bear” Implants in breast augmentation surgery

Advantages of “Gummy Bear” Implants

The Gummy Bear Implants, also known as a cohesive gel implant has many advantages to it. Following are some of the advantages that make it desirable to many women across the world.

“Gummy Bear” Implants Shapes

One of the most noticeable advantages of the Gummy Bear cohesive gel implants are the shape that they maintain over an extended period of time. When compared to other silicone or saline implants, it is possible that the cohesive gel implants will hold their original shape for much longer. This is because these other types of implants are subject to the laws of gravity and the individual woman’s shape of the breast. Therefore, over time the breast implant will change shape as gravity and the breast see fit. The difference with cohesive gel “Gummy Bear” implants are that they have a distinct shape, and this is the shape that the breast will conform to, not the other way around. Therefore over time the breast will still have the original shape that it did when the cohesive gel implant was originally implanted.

“Gummy Bear” Implants Rippling and Folds

Another great advantage of having a cohesive gel “Gummy Bear” implant is that folds and rippling is not likely to occur. This is because the implant has a distinct shape and the filling does not shift around on the inside. The tighter molecular bonds of this implant make it unlikely that the shell will collapse or that any folds and ripples will occur.

No Leakage

Women who have cohesive gel implants generally do not have to worry about the implant leaking inside their body. Typically when breast implants leak, it is because the shell broke which allowed the liquid to leak out. This is not usually a concern with cohesive gel implants for two reasons, the first one is that normal shells generally break along fold lines and cohesive gel implants most likely will not develop fold lines. The second reason is that if the situation arises that the cohesive gel implant shell does break, it would not leak because the filling is mostly solid instead of liquid, meaning that the filling most likely wouldn’t go anywhere.

Less Scar Tissue

It is possible that cohesive gel implants will leave the woman with less firm scar tissue than other implants would. This has been the case in many European procedures, however the reason is still unknown. Some people speculate that the reason is because there is less diffusion of silicone, and other people think it is because the firmness of the implant does not allow the body to contract around the implant. Whatever the reason, less firm scar tissue is definitely a plus and hopefully over time we will know the true reason for this advantage.

Additional “Gummy Bear” Implant Info

Saline or standard silicone gel implants are subject to the forces of gravity and shape of the breast, so that they assume the shape that the forces of the breast and the forces of gravity dictate. Cohesive gel “Gummy Bear” implants otherwise known as gummy-bear implants often maintain their shape better than other silicone implants and subsequently impart their shape upon the breast. Cohesive gel “Gummy Bear” implants have a distinct shape, and they will impart it upon the visible shape of the breast.

“Gummy Bear” breast implants do not fold or ripple and they do not leak. Since the fill does not shift from one area of the shell to the other, shell collapse and folds do not seem to occur, even in long term follow up. Shell failures will occur less frequently because ripples occur so infrequently which will prevent leaks. If a leak happens to occur, since the filling is more solid then liquid, the leak will not move. Studies have shown that since there is less diffusion of silicone compared to other fillers, they have a low capsular contracture rate. Another speculation is that this occurs less frequently due to the increased firmness of the implant.

They are not the desired or correct implant for everyone, but they offer everything I wished for.

In my profession I see a lot of Drs work in nude/semi clothed bodies, and I love how these implants look and stand the tests of body and time over others - like I said, they offer all I want.

Not an easy thing to find in the US- like the sleeve, not all Drs will do everything in the states. Sometimes we have to go outside of our country for needs <3

Thanks so much!

You're more than welcome

A friend of mine had a full lower body lift for 8 grand in Ohio. The sliced her clear around her tummy and pulled everything up like a pair of panty hose. She was out of commission for a while but looks fabulous now. She has inspired me.

No - he is no longer there at Jerusalem. I had my deposit down with Jerusalem and then I asked for patient referrals for the current dr- and info- they had NO info on him' date=' and all of the patient referrals they gave me were for Dr Neibles! SomethingS didn't feel right to me, so I researched the referred Dr!

I spent one night at the clinic where I had the surgeries done. Then three nights total al the hotel suggested by his coordinator. Which was in a much better part if town than the suggested Jerusalem clinic. (I used them for my sleeve)

I recovered at the hotel- daily the Dr and the coordinator/translator, and a nurse came. I was examined, advised, bathed, bandages changed, compression garments placed, all if that every day including leaving day.

I had done

Breast lift

Implants placed (gummy bear- cohesive gels, that I sought high and low for) :-)

Full tummy tuck with muscle repair

Tons of LIPO

Brazillian butt lift (fat transferred from my areas to my hiney)

I think I paid about 8000. Everyone is different, I know most people don't get the butt done, but I sent him photos and asked for an evaluation, and I trusted him 100% so if he said I needed it, I knew I probably did. :-)

Any other questions- feel free to ask!

The only things I would suggest is to take your own pain meds (which I always do for MX)

And get the number of the woman who picks you up at the airport PRIOR to your arrival in SanDiego- so you can call and go! :-)

They are lovely people, one of the funniest things was that my Mom was texting me- from the states- asked me if I'd seen my Dr yet - a few minutes later I sent her a photo of he and I together. :-) he was in the car, dropping me off at the airport. :-) imagine that, Drs that actually care![/quote']
