Implant Material

Breast implants alter the size and shape of the breasts. There are two primary types of breast implant material: saline-filled and silicone gel-filled implants. Saline implants have a silicone elastomer shell filled with sterile saline liquid. Silicone gel implants have a silicone shell filled with a viscous silicone gel. Saline and silicone breast implants both have an outer silicone shell. The implants differ in material and consistency. The doctor fills saline into the implants often at the time of surgery. Some criticize implants have for feeling hard or unnatural, but improved surgical techniques such as placing the implant behind the chest muscle and slightly overfilling it have lessened these complaints. Saline breast implants are available to women age 18 and older for breast augmentation, or women of any age for breast reconstruction. Pre-filled silicone implants contain a silicone gel. A thick sticky fluid closely mimics the feel of human fat. Some women feel that silicone breast implants look and feel more like natural breast tissue. Silicone breast implants are available to women age 22 and older for breast augmentation, or women of any age for breast reconstruction. Implants are named according to what fills them. In other words, fill saline implants with saline and fill silicone implants with liquid silicone gel, which has the consistency of molasses. Regardless of what breast implants filling are, they all have a solid silicone shell. Implantation of solid silicone, or silastic, is used in millions of people with pacemakers, artificial joints, heart valves, penile implants, and artificial lenses for the eye. Solid silicone is a very different substance than silicone gel, which fills silicone gel implants. It might be helpful to think of breast implants as being similar to balloons. Fill a balloon with water, helium, or air, but it still has the same pliable plastic outer layer regardless of what is placed inside. There are currently two main options — silicone breast implants and saline breast implants. Both have their own set of advantages and disadvantages. In general, silicone gel-filled implants are smoother and softer than their saline-filled counterparts are. Silicone implants feel like a semisolid gel, while saline implants are more like water balloons. Many women prefer the softer, more natural-feel of silicone implants to saline breast implants, especially those with little breast tissue such as women undergoing breast reconstruction following breast cancer. Silicone-gel implants are also less likely to ripple than saline breast implants. A breast implant can be filled with saline or silicone gel. Both silicone and saline implants have an outer shell made of silicone-rubber material. Breast implants also come in a variety of sizes, shapes and profiles. Another important variable is texture. Implants can be smooth or textured. Gummy bear breast implants are also made of cohesive silicone gel, but the gel has the consistency of a gummy bear, meaning if cut it in half, it will not leak. These implants are only available to women who enroll in a clinical trial. An implant is a medical device manufactured to replace a missing biological structure, support a damaged biological structure or enhance an existing biological structure. Medical implants are manmade devices whereas transplants are transferred biomedical tissue. The surface of implants that contact the body might be made of a biomedical material such as titanium, silicone, or apatite, depending on what is the most functional. In some cases, implants contain electronics, as found in artificial pacemakers and cochlear implants. Some implants are bioactive like subcutaneous drug delivery devices--implantable pills or drug-eluting stents. Among the most common types of medical implants are pins, rods, screws and plates that anchor fractured bones as they heal.

There are many types of surgical breast treatments including: breast augmentation; breast reduction surgery; breast-conserving surgery ; lumpectomy; mastectomy; and breast lift. Surgical Breast augmentation involves the implantation of breast implants for fuller breasts. Women choose to have breast augmentation surgery to improve their self-image.

Driving Drunk

Driving a two-ton vehicle sober is itself a formidable task, requiring the driver to give unadulterated attention. Attempting to drive after consuming any alcohol is not a good idea even, if the blood alcohol level of the driver is not at the legal limit of .08. Alcohol consumption impairment varies from person to person. Weight, gender, the amount of food a person has eaten and the speed at which a person drinks factor into how quickly someone becomes impaired. Since alcohol tolerance has a number of variables at play, it is best to err on the side of caution and not drink and drive at all. Here is what current research indicates about blood alcohol levels and its impact on impairment.
At a .02 blood alcohol level, a person begins to have an altered relaxed mood with some loss of judgment. When driving this person may have a decline in visual acuity, decreasing the ability to track moving objects and a decline in the ability to perform two tasks at the same time.

.05 Blood Alcohol Level

At a .05 blood alcohol level a person starts to feel good, with lowered alertness and decreased inhibition. A person may also exhibit exaggerated behavior, impaired judgment and the loss of small- muscle control, like the ability to focus the eyes. When behind the wheel with this blood alcohol level, the driver will have reduced coordination, a decline in steering agility, reduced ability to track two moving objects and a decline in the ability to respond to an emergency.
When a person reaches a blood alcohol level of .08, muscle coordination becomes poor. This affects balance, speech, vision, reaction time and hearing. The Judgment, reasoning, memory and self-control of a person become impaired and the person loses the ability to detect danger. A driver will experience impaired concentration, speed control, perception and short-term memory loss in addition to a reduction in information processing capability, the ability to process signal detection and visual search.
When a person reaches a blood alcohol level of .10, the person experiences a deterioration of reaction time and control, slurred speech and poor coordination. When driving, there is a reduced ability to maintain lanes and brake efficiently. After drinking use the foot mode of transportation or have someone else do the driving.
