Frequently Asked Questions -
Smooth or Textured Breast Implants

I have heard that smooth implants move more freely and act more like the natural breast, is this true?

Smooth implants do move more freely than textured implants and, in that regard, are more like the natural breast. However, some patients prefer styles of implants, such as anatomical implants, which are not available with a smooth surface.

Explain to me the difference between smooth and textured implants.

The shell of round implants is smooth. In anatomical implants, the manufacturers roughen the shell, giving it a texture similar to velcro. The rougher texture minimizes implant movement.
