• Silicone Gel: The most popular choice today, these implants are pre-filled with a cohesive gel that feels very similar to natural breast tissue. Modern "gummy bear" implants maintain their shape even if the outer shell is compromised, offering an excellent safety profile and natural feel.
• Saline: These implants have a silicone shell filled with sterile salt water after being placed in the breast pocket. They tend to feel firmer than silicone and may show rippling more easily in thin patients. If they leak, the saline is harmlessly absorbed by the body.
• Round: Provide equal fullness all around, resulting in more noticeable upper pole fullness and cleavage. A classic choice for a more "augmented" look.
• Anatomical (Teardrop): Shaped like a natural breast – narrower at the top and sloping to more fullness at the bottom. Can provide a very natural contour, especially beneficial for certain body types or reconstructions.
• Size (Volume): Measured in cubic centimeters (cc's), the size chosen depends on your body frame (chest width, height), existing breast tissue, and desired final cup size. Dr. Castro Esguerra uses careful measurements and potentially sizers or 3D imaging to help select a size that achieves your goals while remaining proportionate.
• Profile (Projection): This determines how far the implant projects forward from the chest wall (low, moderate, moderate plus, high, ultra-high). Profile choice affects the final silhouette and is selected based on your desired look and existing anatomy.
• Implant Placement & Incision: These technical decisions (implant over or under the muscle, incision location in the breast crease, around the nipple, or in the armpit) are tailored by Dr. Castro Esguerra based on your anatomy, implant choice, and goals to optimize the aesthetic outcome and minimize scarring.

• Defining Your Goals: What changes are you hoping for? Increased size? Improved shape? Better symmetry? Restored volume? Clearly communicating your desires is the first step.
• Expert Evaluation: Dr. Castro Esguerra assesses your breast anatomy, skin quality, chest dimensions, and overall health to determine the best surgical approach.
• Visualizing the Outcome: Selecting the right implant size and shape is crucial. Dr. Castro Esguerra utilizes methods like external sizers worn inside a special bra, and potentially advanced 3D imaging simulation, to help you visualize how different options might look on your body. This helps ensure the final result aligns with your expectations.
• Personalized Plan: Based on this collaborative process, a detailed surgical plan is created, outlining the chosen implants, placement technique, and incision site tailored just for you.
• Building Confidence: Dr. Castro Esguerra's approach, noted in testimonials, involves clear explanations, honest answers, and empathetic guidance, ensuring you feel fully informed, comfortable, and confident in your decision before moving forward.

Q: How much bigger can I realistically go with Colombia Breast Implants?

A: The goal is proportional, natural-looking enhancement. Dr. Castro Esguerra will assess your chest width, existing tissue, and skin elasticity to recommend implant sizes that complement your frame beautifully, rather than simply aiming for the largest possible size. He focuses on harmony and balance.

Q: How long do breast implants typically last? Do they need replacing?

A: Modern breast implants are durable but are not considered lifetime devices. While many patients keep their implants for 10, 15, or even 20+ years without issues, replacement surgery might eventually be needed due to implant aging, rupture, capsular contracture, or changes in personal preference or breast shape over time. Discuss implant longevity during your consultation.

Q: What is recovery like? How soon can I go back to normal life?

A: Expect initial soreness and swelling for 1-2 weeks. Light activities can usually resume within a week. Strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, and upper body workouts must be avoided for about 4-6 weeks. Full settling of implants and fading of scars takes several months. Dr. Castro Esguerra provides detailed post-operative instructions.

Q: Is Dr. Felipe Castro Esguerra board-certified in Colombia?

A: Yes, he is a member of the Colombian Society of Plastic Surgery (SCCP), which serves as the primary board certification and professional standard body for plastic surgeons in Colombia. His additional international memberships (ASPS, ISAPS) further underscore his qualifications.
