Both saline and silicone gel breast implants are equally safe. Silicone gel implants have cosmetic advantages, especially for women with less breast tissue, because they feel and look more natural.

Saline and silicone gel implants are equal with regards to their safety. Neither of them cause cancer nor any kind of systemic disease. Many people have the impression that saline implants are somehow safer, and this is not the case. The difference between them, however, from a cosmetic point of view, is that silicone gel implants have a shape or a form to them, and that results in a smoother outline and less rippling and folding around the edges of the implant. For thinner women or women with less breast tissue, this makes a significant difference in the cosmetic result.
