In Australia and Europe current sales figures show a distribution of 90% silicone, 10% saline. As modern silicone gel implants have been available since 1963, surgeons therefore have over 35 years of experience with these types of breast implants. This is more than any other type in use.

Evolution has brought changes and improvements over the years with the introduction of textured surface envelopes made of newer formulations designed to minimize the "bleed" or diffusion of what is usually tiny amounts of the silicone oil fraction of the gel contents.

Importantly the standard silicone gel by most accounts, arguably "feels" the most natural of all breast implants. This is probably as a result of the inherent smoothness of the silicone gel content.
