Embodiment Construction

[0060] According to the above figures, this new type of implant comprises: a silicone implant 1 , a filled geometric structure 2 and an embedded viscous silicone gel and / or any other biocompatible material 3 . The implant has chambers and variable and interacting compartments, the latter serving to elevate the mastoid-areolar complex 4 (cone). The middle chamber for forming the mastoid-areolar complex has thicker side walls 5 . The implant also includes a mastoid-areolar region 6 . The supracompartment 7, comprising the portion behind the upper region of the implant and possibly having an extension within the mastoid-areolar complex, further pushes out the cone . The walls of the mastoid-areolar complex are thinner than those of the implant. A filling valve 8 is also provided, through which the cooperating compartments allow tailor-made adjustments. The implant is further provided with a cone-elevating inferior compartment 9, which can be filled to correct prolapse and giv...

Abstract

The invention relates to an implant for augmenting or reconstructing breasts, buttocks, thighs and calves, having independent expandable and interactive compartments that can be filled during manufacture or during or after surgery, with an external silicone membrane (1) internally and / or externally coated with a Ricinus communis polyurethane foam (14) covered with hydroxylapatite microcrystals (13) or nanocrystals (13) incorporated into the same membrane, with an inner space divided into compartments (3) that are or can be filled with three-dimensional geometric structures (2) immersed in cohesive silicone (3) or another gel, liquid, air or gas, with a chamber for the projection of the body (4) or of the lower pole of the breast, having a conical structure within the main chamber in order to project the latter. The inner and outer chambers are independently filled and have different volumes, and since they are interactive, they allow any necessary adjustments of the implant through filling valves (8), in order to project the region (6) of the areola and nipple, the body or other region of the breast, correcting ptosis, assymetry, congenital thoracic hypertrophy in the mammal or other region. Flaps (10) or strings (11) for immediate attachment ensure safe and early mobility, faster return to normal activity, and a secure final placement of the implant; they avoid displacement of the implant and can be previously removed by the surgeon.

Description

technical field [0001] The object of the present invention is to provide a novel silicone implant for augmentation or reconstruction of breasts or other parts of the human body, so as to significantly expand the use of the implant and improve its efficacy. Furthermore, the present invention provides a technical improvement over existing types of silicone implants. Background technique [0002] Existing implant casts for augmentation or reconstruction of breasts, buttocks, thighs, and calves primarily consist of medical-grade silicone elastomer membranes. Like other medical grade materials, it is filled with saline solution, silicone with different viscosities or other biocompatible products. [0003] Silicone implants can also have different surface structures, such as smooth, patterned or covered with standard polyurethane foam not made from castor (castor bean), and have different volumes and shapes. [0004] Some implants have internal compartments filled with silicone ...
