A surgeon identifies four surgical implants and explains why some are rarely used anymore. Shaped breast implants rotate too much in the pocket. Nose implants carry a high risk of extrusion, though they work in select cases.

Okay, textured. You want me to tell you? Okay, it's a shaped implant, which we don't use anymore because they rotate. These are too obvious. It's probably like a 350. What you got? Okay, this is definitely not a breast implant. It is a solid-state silicone implant, um, buttock implant. Okay, this is a chin implant, medium profile, extended anatomic. Okay, okay, this is a nose, this is a nose implant. Don't use these very often because they have a potential to extrude, but sometimes they're good in certain situations.
