Patients exploring breast implants commonly search for ways to achieve the full look that still feels soft and natural to the touch, without rippling.

This innovative new technology has a TruForm® cohesive silicone gel, which allows for the implants to hold their shape and retain upper pole fullness from the gel’s soft-solid consistency. Colloquially known as “Gummy Bear” gel, this type of gel implant in Canada has traditionally been reserved for teardrop shape implants, but with the new cohesive collection Toronto Cosmetic Surgery Institute is able to offer the desired round shape without compromising the natural look and feel.
