Saline implants, which have a silicone rubber shell filled with sterile saline liquid. These implants are currently the only type available outside of clinical trials in the United States, but future regulation may make more filler types available. String Implants, which used proypropylene (PPP), were eliminated years ago by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) due to the complications brought about by continuous growth after implantation.
Tissue engineered implants are a new form currently in development. Cells taken from tissue artificially grown from human stem cells are combined with a scaffold material to produce a Tissue Engineered Breast Implant.
