Hello 'Woori is beautiful!' I'm Woori Beauty TV's Dr. Hyuk Today we're going to talk about breast surgery Perhaps your biggest question is 'Which implants are the best?' There are a lot of different brands

Let me tell you about a company called 'Mentor' (1. History of the Mentor) Long story short, it's from a big multinational company called 'Johnson & Johnson' In fact, every implant company says their implants are the best

But no one can decide what's best First of all, the advantage of Mentor is that it's the oldest company Mentor is where implants were first developed So naturally, it's the biggest seller

And it still has the biggest share Implants are also medical products, so stability is important The U.S. FDA is the one that makes sure it's safe Mentor's implants are the only ones currently approved by the FDA for both content and shell That's the advantage of Mentor (2. Mentor's implant type)

Let's talk about Mentor's implants First, there are 4 implants here I'll explain how they differ overall This implant on the far left is not actually Mentor's This is an implant from a company called Allergan Looking at the implants

only Allergan's implants have a translucent surface This is a textured implant that doesn't need to be massaged These implants have many benefits including easy fixation and the ability to create various shapes But in 2019, a report surfaced that suggested that the textured implants we use for comfort could be causing a rare cancer

After that, textured implants will not be available anymore So as of 2019, these types of implants are excluded So what implants did we use after that? As you can see, we've used clear implants like these After the problem with this implant the old one was re-inspected

And these were fine on inspection These untextured types are called smooth types And we're using them a lot again now The company that makes the most of these implants and is the most famous is Mentor So you've probably heard a lot about Mentor's implants

It's for those reasons The one up here and the other two are Mentor's implants Let me show you the difference between this implant and the one below The implant is soft, so it's bound to fold like this But this one folds a little more This is due to the different fill rates

The fill rate is how full the contents are inside This one is less filled And this one is more filled The more filled one is the new one What's the big deal, you ask? That's a big deal

It's not easy, this is a skill Having a high fill rate has big advantages Why do you get breast surgery? You have small breasts so you try to get them bigger If someone with small breasts makes their breasts larger the folds of the implants may be felt

or the implants may cause other problems So if you have very small breasts it's hard to get this implant This 'Extra' solved that problem This is the 'Extra' implant that is advertised as a premium implant these days This is a high fill rate implant

And as you can see, this implant is a little bit higher This implant is a slightly higher type If you want to get bigger breasts the height of the implant will determine the size of your breasts with the diameter being the same And if you prefer a natural look you can use a lower type like this This is something you can discuss with your doctor and choose what's right for you

(3. Advantages of Mentor Implants) The advantage of Mentor implants is that, as I said they're the most used, they're still the most used and they have a high market share And there were many implant companies that came in and withdrew from Korea But Mentor has been around since I was a resident back in the day

That's the biggest advantage The second is that it is FDA cleared I can't say for sure But it's probably more authoritative It doesn't feel fixed, it feels like it flows with your movements and other factors So patients tend to feel like this is softer and natural looking

Unlike Mentor's implants, other companies have a lot of treatments and advertising on their products I think they do a lot of things to create a brand image Mentor might be a little lacking in that regard But I think it's probably a little wrong to make that choice based on a trendy ad Because this is a medical product If you have any other questions, please leave a comment
