There are 2 types of silicone prostheses according to the substance they contain:

• SSilicone prostheses containing saline: They contain saline, in other words salt water, inside the capsule made of silicone. It is not a foreign substance for our body. Since its consistency is the same as the consistency of the breast tissue, its presence is not felt much from the outside.
• Silicone prostheses: There are two types of prosthesis according to the consistency of the silicone they contain:
  1. Containing liquid silicone: Liquid silicone is of soft consistency and flowing. Since the softness of the liquid silicone is close to the softness of the breast, the presence of a liquid silicone-containing prosthesis is not felt much when examined manually from the outside.
  2. Containing cohesive silicone: It is denser than liquid silicone, it is solid, so it is not fluent. Since the consistency is denser compared to the liquid silicone, it is a bit harder, the presence of the silicone inside can be felt in the breast from the outside. It has a harder consistency than other types of prosthesis.
