Abstract: | A retrospective analysis of data on 307 patients was made. The incidence of firmness in breasts augmented by saline-filled prostheses was compared to the incidence in breasts augmented by gel-filled prostheses. A statistically significant lower rate of constricting capsule formation was found in the saline-inflated group. |
