There are many factors that contribute to how natural a breast implant feels. The size, shape, and firmness of the implant all play a role in how it feels. In addition, the way the implant is placed will also affect how natural it feels.
Submuscular implants tend to feel more natural than those placed above the muscle. This is because the muscle provides support and helps to shape the breast. There is also less chance of the implant being felt or seen through the skin.
The type of implant used will also affect how natural it feels. Silicone implants are often said to feel more like real breasts than saline implants. This is because they have a more similar texture to real breast tissue.
No matter what type of implant you choose, it is important to discuss your expectations with your surgeon. This will help ensure that you are happy with the results.
