Eating your green vegetables and the right amount of fruits has always been important to stay healthy, but registered dietitian Ryann Smith-Dannemann suggests spicing up your palate for flavor and health benefits. Adding spices gives dishes the extra flavor without the extra calories.
With anti-inflammatory effects and high levels of antioxidants, this spice is said to aid any worry in your body. Try: Adding turmeric to chicken or egg salad, casserole, lentil dishes and chili
This spice is known to help control blood sugar levels. It's also a helpful agent in treating cholesterol problems, hypertension, and preventing heart disease.
Try: Sprinkling cinnamon on oatmeal or fruits, and using it in hot beverages
Basil helps to reduce cholesterol and prevent against heart disease. Basil extracts also serve as protecting agents against some forms of cancer.
Try: Adding fresh basil to salads, sandwiches or sliced tomato and mozzarella

Admirals Earn Comeback Win over Hogs
Milwaukee, WI--Triston Grant scored two goals and the Admirals tallied the four unanswered to take a 4-2 win over the Rockford IceHogs on Thursday night at the BMO Harris Bradley Center.
It was Grant's first multi-goal game in nearly four seasons and the fifth of his career.
The win was also the first time since November 21 and 22 that Milwaukee had won back-to-back games.
Rockford took an early 1-0 lead early in the first on an unassisted power-play goal by Phillip Danault at 9:08 into the game.
Just over three minutes later T.J. Brennan gave the Hogs a 2-0 lead from almost the exact same spot on the ice. A loose puck in the high slot trickled out to right of Ads goalie Marek Mazanec and Brennan was the first to it. He fired a wrister that beat Mazanec high glove side at 12:15.
A heady play by Ads forward Mark Van Guilder helped get them on the board with 2:16 left in the first period. Milwaukee defenseman Taylor Aronson held the puck on the Rockford blueline and fired a shot that hit a prone Van Guilder in the head. The loose puck was picked up by Viktor Arvidsson, who fed Grant alone in front of the IceHogs net and he lifted the puck over the right pad of Scott Darling for his second of the season.
Grant got his second of the night at the 5:51 mark of the second period. Aronson started the play with a wrister that Darling stopped, however Grant was stationed in front and cleaned the rebound to tie the game at two.
Persistence paid off for the Admirals on their second power-play of the night and it resulted in a 3-2 lead. Arvidsson had hit the post with two shots during the man advantage and it looked like the penalty would expire. However, with one second left Richard Clune chipped the puck from behind the Milwaukee net out to Austin Watson, who slid the puck five-hole for his lucky 13th of the season with 5:19 to play in the second.
Less than a minute later Zach Budish scored for the second consecutive game to push the Admirals lead to 4-2 and chase Darling from the Rockford goal.
Mazanec and the Admirals held off the Rockford attack in the third period, giving the Ads the win.
The Admirals and Hogs finish off their home-and-home set tomorrow night in Rockford at 7 before returning home on Saturday night at 7 pm against the Charlotte Checkers.
Fans can purchase tickets for Thursday or Saturday's game, or any Admirals game, by calling Ticketmaster at (800) 745-3000 or online at www.milwaukeeadmirals.com.

Butterfly Goddess
Recently, I had a dream of a gift of butterflies, and in my attempt to share my dream with two very dear friends, I felt humbled and honored to have been given two precious gifts by them. My dream had been interpreted via a hauntingly beautiful poem titled Dream of the Butterflies and a graphic interpretation of the dream called Butterfly Goddess.
To my friends, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I also thank you for giving me permission to share these gifts with everyone, as I feel that the sharing and giving does not reduce or lose, but enhance and expand. We are truly the richer for having given of ourselves and our ideas and visions to others.
To you, my readers. May you derive as much joy in reading it as I did. Here is Dream of the Butterflies.

VA ClotChip™ Technology Provides Rapid Point-of-Care Assessment
Rebecca Polito, APT Center; Graphic credit: Grace Gongaware
ClotChip™ is a portable sensor that can assess the clotting ability of a person's blood 95 times faster than existing methods using only a single drop of blood. It provides a rapid, point-of-care (POC) assessment of the integrity of clotting factors and platelet activity. Currently, such results are obtainable only with specialized laboratory testing that can take 24 hours or more for results. Because this device works so quickly, physicians can use it at the POC to determine whether a patient is on a blood thinner medication or not.
Located on the campus of Case Western Reserve University, the BioMicroSystems Laboratory employs advanced engineering techniques to develop portable diagnostic and monitoring devices for predictive, preventative, and personalized medicine. Its researchers are a part of the Advanced Platform Technology (APT) Center, a National VA Rehabilitation Research & Development Center that focuses on serving veterans with sensorimotor dysfunction, cognitive impairment, or limb loss using cutting-edge technologies and rehabilitation techniques.

Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone are in talks to lead Damien Chazelle's romantic musical, La La Land. The film centers on the love story between a jazz pianist and an aspiring actress. La La Land is Chazelle's directorial follow up to Whiplash, which took home the 3 Oscars last year. We reported last summer that Chazelle would re-team with Whiplash star Miles Teller in the role of the pianist, but, per Deadline, Teller has moved on from the project. Likewise, Emma Watson, who was originally attached as the aspiring actress, has departed for Disney's live-action Beauty and the Beast.
When Steve interviewed Chazelle last year, the director cited Singing in the Rain, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, and A Star is Born as influences, and described La La Land as "an old fashioned song and dance". Though the film is conceived in a retro vein, the story is set in contemporary times as a "a big, cinemascope love letter to Los Angeles" and a "kinetic portrait of the city". Though no deals have been signed, Chazelle is looking to lock down his lead actors and begin production in the fall.
I am so crazy excited for this film. Whiplash was my favorite movie last year, and while Watson and Teller are talented, engaging actors, Gosling and Stone have an electric chemistry that's hard to beat. The duo previously worked together in Crazy Stupid Love and The Gangster Squad, and their rapport was the highlight of both films. I also can't wait to see what Chazelle does with the musical format. Whiplash was, in many ways, a musical that used rhythm instead of lyrics. The characters communicated and lived through the music, and the visceral response inspired by the film's brilliant climax is carried by the vessel of song. Chazelle is a filmmaker who knows how to combine the arts of music and cinema.
What do you think of the casting switch-up? Which Emma is best for the part? Sound off below.

The nucleate boiling in a droplet of aqueous salt solution

Published online: 14 January 2019
This paper is devoted to an experimental study of the dynamics of the nucleate boiling in a droplet of aqueous solution of LiBr salt. As the concentration of LiBr salt increases, the growth rate of the bubbles decreases and the boiling completely stops when a high salt concentration is reached. An increase in the concentration of salt in the liquid layer of the bottom of the bubble leads to a decrease in the rate of increase in the diameter of the bubble, and a dry spot is not formed. The growth rate of a bubble (v) in a water droplet is somewhat higher than one for a salt solution for t > 0.2-0.3 s. The difference of v for the salt solution from curve 3 increases sharply when t < 0.1 s. For the first time, four regimes of the nucleate boiling in LiBr solution droplet were detected.

A USB powered warmer for your Fleshjack? I was sceptical at first but then like all Fleshjack products I gave it a try and I'll admit it, I'm nearly happy with my purchase (more on that below). If you're a serious fan and user of the Fleshjack then the sleeve warmer is for you… and the price doesn't hurt.
I can't believe I spent years warming my sleeves up using simple hot water, but I managed. (Sure that sounds sarcastic, but honestly if you used your Fleshack as much as I do you'd understand the effort required). Not everyone like sticking themselves in a cold wet hole, so using the warmer to carefully bring the temperature of the superskin sleeve AND keep it dry is a very nice connivence.
I'm assuming you already know the benefits of pre-heating your Fleshjack before using it. Basically a warm sleeve better mimics the inside of the body where you're normally sticking your penis. My previous advice had been to follow the instructions and run the sleeve under hot water, but this can take more than 10 minutes and makes your sleeve wet before use.
Trying it out
The warmer is very easy to use. Plug it in and wait for the rod to warm up. The green light will be lit while it's charging up, and it's ready to use when the light goes out (and the warmer switches itself off). This is the point when you slide your sleeve onto the hot rod. If you leave the warmer plugged it will keep itself at the correct temperature when it begins to cool down.
Fleshjack originally claimed the warmer can bring up the internal temperature of a sleeve to 135-degrees (57-degrees celsius) in a matter of minutes. After my first experience following the instructions closely, I found the sleeve's internal temperature wasn't all that hot, however the sensation was already far better then my previous experiences using hot water.
For a more in-depth and penetrating review, I tried heating the sleeve several times over the course of a week, and even stuck a thermometer into the sleeve to check the progress, but I never managed to get the temperature above 120-degrees. The best I achieved was around 110-degrees after 30 minutes of warming. Since the warmer is USB powered, it can be hooked up to your computer to operate, but for the best result, as I discovered through my testing, using the provided wall-plug. It also takes between 5-10 minutes to get the warmer hot enough to start warming your sleeve.
Another issue I came across was sliding the sleeve on and off the heated pole. After a few attempts I added a small amount of lube to the warmer and found my Fleshjack slid on without getting stuck. This may not be recommended but it sure helped, and I wouldn't be worried if the warmer actually reached the claimed temperature. You'll find a quick wipe with a damp cloth will be needed to clean up after.
Update: If you check the page on Fleshjack, you'll now see the warmer is meant to reach 105-degrees.
Aside from the less than optimal warming temperature, the device does warm your sleeve to a pleasant and comfortable temperature. I found the experience using my warmed Fleshjack nearly as enjoyable as when warmed in hot water. I had a warmer experience when I warmed by Fleshjack Flight compared to a larger Fleshjack Original.
The sleeve warmer is probably best for regular Fleshjack users who plan ahead at least 30 minutes (if not an hour) so their Fleshjack has plenty of time to warm up. I let a friend borrow it to warm his and he reported back that it was too much of a bother.
Verdict, buy if you use your Fleshjack several times a week, find pre-soaking your sleeve a pain, and have the sense of mind to get your Fleshjack ready well before you are. If that's not you, save your money and buy a new sleeve.

text: Careers Leadership One quick way to stimulate CIO-board engagement in Canada Shane Schick @ShaneSchick Published: June 24th, 2015A few months ago, I was at an event where someone made a comment that, due to the increased impact of IT on the bottom line, "all boards are now becoming technology boards."Not in Canada, I thought to myself.In a recent roundtable discussion I hosted with CanadianCIO, our guests backed me up, with several suggesting they are increasingly disconnected from the senior leadership team which shapes so much of enterprise strategy.The Wall Street Journal recently suggested that, despite the rise of security problems and overall customer-facing nature of many IT projects, boards that are deeply engaged with CIOs are still few and far between. That doesn't mean it's never going to happen, of course. In fact, board members are flocking to conferences and paying consultants to help them get up to speed.Canadian boards of directors may need more of a nudge, and there may be no better resource for them than 'The CIO and the Board,' a report produced by UK-based consulting firm Advanced 365 and Global Futures and Foresight. The document is available in its entirety below. CIO and the Board from natesudaBesides merely making the case for increased CIO-board engagement, there is a lot of detail here on steps both sides could take to form a more strategic and collaborative relationship. For example, page 13 points out that, besides the obvious differences in how importantly a company will weigh IT based on their industry sector, CIOs should evaluate their opportunities to make an impact on the board based on the organization's stage of life. This spans the startup stage, growth stages, "expansion" stages and more mature entities.There's also some interesting thoughts further on about whether companies should reconsider the way they recruit board members, and key questions on how to hire their next CIO. The conclusion suggests IT leaders should consider their degree of influence in bringing major changes about:More fundamental questions surrounding the board's role in technology and what exactly innovation is aiming to achieve could be partly informed by a knowledge and effective CIO. In order the for the CIO to be able to assist and help develop the strategic technology of the board, the board and others in executive management need to help create the conditions within the organization and infuse them in its corporate culture to enable the more strategic-minded CIOs to influence the increasingly important technology issues that confront business. As long as they're open to it — and maybe even if they're not — this is something well worth sharing with more Canadian boards of directors. And if it comes from their CIO, it could be an example of the proactive leadership style that more of them may need to demonstrate. Careers, Leadership A, boards of directors, CIO

CURTIS, Neb. — It's National Agriculture Week!
As I write this weekly message, it is National Ag Day across the United States and at the Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture in Curtis.
Our 2020 observance may be muted by current events around the globe. Nonetheless, we recognize the immense contributions made by those who produce the food, fiber and fuel needed to feed the world.
NCTA is evaluating the evolving situation around COVID-19 daily. The safety of our students, faculty, staff and the greater community is our utmost concern. We will be transitioning our Spring semester toward remote learning after Spring Break, on March 30. For more information on these details, please see ncta.unl.edu
Most of our students are away on Spring Break, and our faculty and staff are working remotely or from their offices on campus.
However, agriculture production does not take a break. Hard work and responsibilities continue at the 550-acre NCTA Farm and Learning Laboratory.
Livestock at the farm, horses, and the animals or various species used for teaching programs at the NCTA Veterinary Technology program, are fed, managed and facilities maintained by employees and student workers.
Standards of care are a priority for all animals owned and managed by NCTA.
Spring calving
The NCTA cow herd is about half done with calving. The 31 head of cows are pastured in Aggieland, located immediately north of the campus.
Over the weekend, several of the Vet Tech students took their shifts in checking cows. And, student workers and fulltime staff with the NCTA "Farm Crew" are watching the animals, as well.
Students in livestock management and one of the VT classes had signed up for their calving rotations, as part of their class credits. This hands-on training is a hallmark of the NCTA experience.
Equine science
Campus horses are maintained for by Huntra Christensen, Ranch Horse Team assistant coach. With temperature swings and rain or snow, special attention is paid to a couple of geriatric horses. Like humans, older animals may need extra care for nutrition, hydration and exercise.
Animal Science and Ag Education Division Interim Chair Joanna Hergenreder reports that professors are busy preparing academic content for online platforms to begin next week.
The Ranch Horse Team's Punchy In Pink Horse Show scheduled for April 3-5 has been canceled.
Crops program
On the crops side of the NCTA Farm, wet weather prevents any crop field activity for a while. Once conditions allow, Dr. Brad Ramsdale, agronomy professor, reports as a 100% no-till farm, we will go straight to planting.
In Crops Practicum II class, students have planned for crops on the varying sizes of ground assigned to them. Nine acres of triticale is slated to be planted in one area. Spring forage mixtures will be planted on the dryland corners of a center pivot irrigated field.
Ag Week, March 22-28
From all of us at NCTA, we appreciate the contributions of each individual to the success of our rural campus and culture, and to the daily lives of all consumers.
The Agriculture of America reports that each American farmer feeds more than 165 people. Those of us in American agriculture are producing even more food and fiber – and doing it safely and with improved technologies.
Thank an agriculture producer today, and throughout the year.
NCTA is devoted to a statewide mission of preparing students for successful careers in agriculture, veterinary technology, and related industries. The college provides open access to innovative technical education resulting in associate degrees, certificates, and other credentials
— Kelly Bruns, Ph.D., Interim Dean of NCTA

I can't help it!!!
I can't help but change the template of our blog....Sorry... It must be a girl thing... I did want to say that as we have been here I have finished two great books if anyone is interested in a good read.... Sink reflections, by the Fly Lady ( I actually have read it before and now own it) and Hold on, by Micheal McClain... I have always wondered what inspires an song writer. Thanks to the Quinney's..It was wonderful.. I just started a new one. I am having a harder time getting into it... We will see....

Just checking in this morning to see how things are going. I have wanted to get up to see you, but on New Years Eve I came down with a major cold. YUCK! What a way to start out the new year aye?
Scott and I both enjoy Michael McClain's music and always attend the Forgotten Carols as part of our Christmas Tradition. He is truly amazing.
Please know we are praying for Alex and your family that his recovery will be quick and you will have him home to cuddle very soon.

Below are the courses frequently offered in Biomedical Engineering. For the most up-to-date course offerings and lecturer information, visit Yale University's Online Course Information site. Click here for the listing of courses in Engineering & Applied Science (general courses for undergraduate students in any branch of Engineering).
BENG 205, Discovery and Design in Biomedical Research
The course will introduce a clinical dilemma, that is, a medical or surgical need, and help students to learn how to work together effectively to identify a solution that stems from a multi-disciplinary approach. Toward this end, we will focus on precision regenerative medicine as an illustrative area of study for it involves aspects of bioengineering, materials science, immunobiology, mechanobiology, computational modeling, and experimental design. We will also advance to hands-on fabrication and materials testing (i.e., data collection and analysis). To focus our study, we will consider in detail the design of a drug-eluting, tissue engineered vascular conduit for surgical treatment of a congenital heart defect that is diagnosed and treated in early childhood. This topic also offers the opportunity to understand contributions from diverse areas of clinical collaboration, including surgery and cardiology. Because the solution is open-ended it will enable a true classroom directed research experience. Although focused on a single clinical need, all of the methods learned will be generally applicable to a host of clinical needs..

An interview with 2017 Maryland Teacher of the Year, Sia Kyriakakos by Catalina Sofia Dansberger Duque
Athanasia Kyriakakos (Sia) remembers dancing with her father years ago at a Greek party. Passionate toasts were made. Plates crashed to the floor in celebration, making the floor slippery. A giant human spiral of people wove in and out of concentric circles, the community stomping out a quickening rhythm. Those on the side lines clapped in time. Sia was deeply entrenched in a mesh of voices, the ding of the plates continuously breaking as dancers stepped on them or kicked them, blending with the affirming crescendo of pounding feet, spinning lights, and bouncing colors of fabric. As she remembers it, each person was unique yet a collective trust kept the whole moving.
At this moment, Sia recalled a large metal sculpture she had welded and hammered alone during her undergraduate days at the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) years before. The fifteen by fifteen foot sculpture was made out of cut steel triangles curled into spirals. Wet clay covered the steel floor, inviting people to walk through it carefully because it was slippery. Fabric was woven throughout like netting. She realized she had unintentionally recreated this spiral in her work.
For years Sia had tried to escape that circle by defying her parents' teachings to make her a good wife, housekeeper, and mother. She was adamant about keeping her last name at the age of six. And even when when her parents proclaimed, "NO MONEY, NO ART," art found Sia. MICA offered her a full scholarship. She made a point to choose metal. She was strong and independent no longer restricted by tradition, but cracks began to happen.
By the time she pursued an MFA at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago she could no longer work by herself. Sia needed community. She began creating art spaces that invited people in by design. She would make coffee for them. Read their fortunes. Soon her spaces began to look like her grandmother's porch, her Greek grandmother, the one whose lap Sia sat on as she hand spun wool she had dyed by hand and late wove. These communal structures earned her a Fulbright to Greece and throughout Europe to work on community and art space.
All this time she had thought she wanted to separate herself from the traditions, the expectations, and the gendered roles of her Greek upbringing, but the expectations to extend her family, to build community, to create a home was the medium that chose her and how she came to understand herself. The art had been the unconscious physical manifestation of this idea. She had been recreating the spiral all along, defining her place within, but on her terms. Choosing to teach in Baltimore City after representing Greece in the 2003 Venice Biennale (a collaboration with Dimitris Rotsios under the name of intron) was about consciously using her medium — extending her family, creating a home, building community — in a classroom.
And now, Sia's work at Mergenthaler Vocational-Technical High School (MERVO) has earned her the 2016 Baltimore City Teacher of the Year and 2017 Maryland Teacher of the Year. It took her to Colombia, South America as part of the International Research and Exchange Board. Soon she will head back to Greece via a second Fulbright award to work with the refugee community.
The following is a conversation with Sia about her teaching and her evolving practice as an artist.
Why did you choose to teach in Baltimore City?
My parents were political and economic refugees from Greece, so Baltimore is 'coming home' for me. My family owned Mamma Mia's a pizzeria on N. Broadway and Monument. Parkville High School was where I took my first official art classes and where I received tremendous support to develop as an artist. It changed my life. I wanted to give that same rigorous and supportive experience to my students.
I grew up surrounded by Black culture and I love it. I felt at home with the students in Baltimore City. But I had culture shock coming back [as a teacher] because I never thought schools in the United States in the 21st century would not have tables and books. It became my mission to teach art and be an advocate for change. It is not about pouring money in but about changing laws to dismantle inequitable systems to create access instead of barriers.
How are you able to have such high impact?
I was ready. I was kicked out of MICA's teacher program years ago. In order to be in the temple of children you have to give yourself completely. I wasn't ready for that. I wanted to be an artist. The things I do are about self investigation. In order to be a good teacher you need to build relationships. You have to give students time and be vulnerable yourself. I am not building relationships as a strategy. I am building relationships because I want to have those relationships with my students. I want to have meaningful connections with them. I want to understand them and see who they are and where they come from. I want to share who I am with them. And when you do that— it is magical.
What has fostered your work at MERVO?
The administration supported me financially. I gave them a huge budget. The same budget I gave to the five principals in my previous three schools (all of which closed). Mr. Rivers was the only one to grant it. I didn't have to beg for money. I had money to do my work and felt loved and supported as a teacher every step of the way. They never said 'Oh, it is not a tested subject we are not going to give it any support.' I was also allowed to take students out of school and put them in shows all over Baltimore so other people could see their work and their potential.
How does the process look from the student's side?
The class is about building trust. Day one we all write about who each of us is and read our writing aloud. Art is a process of editing, re-editing, and building that up but always in a deeply loving way. I give them praise but then ask them to do it again. Students begin to adopt extremely high standards. They learn to consult each other and develop an eye for what is missing from listening to me give them feedback and push them to go deeper.
The projects are not finished until I say they are done. Students hate me and sometimes they cry and want to give up. Then they come back to work on it. When students are done they are allowed to sign their work. I always take a photo of them when they sign their work. Their pride shines right through them.
Did any go on to pursue art?
No. I have students for one semester in eleventh or twelfth grade for the mandatory art credit requirement to graduate a Maryland High School. Twenty of those days are taken away for testing. I am not even an elective they can take in freshman year. Most are coming to me drawing at an elementary level. I have one semester to cover developmentally ten years of learning. Students need instruction to develop skills. Art schools require art for four years with six or seven classes and a portfolio of twenty pieces. When they are done with me they have two or three pieces that are portfolio ready.
Baltimore City has not been invested in art throughout high school. Dr. Santelises is making a big push to teach the whole child. Art is a big part of that but unless it is backed up by money it is not going to happen.
How do you bridge that gap?
Their first line drawing shows me how far I can take them developmentally. I begin with a sculpture medium because it is freer and very expressive and then go into something really tight like charcoal drawing. That process is grueling. I then cover basic photography because they all want to know how to take better photos. Painting is beautiful but I can only do that if I have more time. I focus on three in-depth projects and do them very well. At first students are afraid and have no confidence but in the end they have a deep understanding of the medium.
I also don't say I'm teaching how to draw. I say I am teaching you focus, perseverance, and patience. These are life skills needed in order to be successful at anything. It is not about art it is about their life and having something beautiful in their lives. I have them write their goals with steps on how to get there. Process is everything. I want them to see themselves as powerful and existing in this greater community, in this city, in the world. That is what I am preparing them for. That is what their artwork is about. It is about them having self knowledge, seeing themselves as powerful, existing in the greater community as positive influences of tomorrow.

The decision to pursue breast augmentation is a very personal one, and the team at Elevation Plastic Surgery & Med Spa understands the excitement and anxiety that can accompany such a significant life choice. Devan Griner, MD, has helped hundreds of women in and around Park City, Utah, feel more comfortable in their own skin using the latest breast augmentation techniques. Book your consultation today to explore the possibilities and get started toward your goals. Online scheduling is available, or you can call the office to speak with an administrative specialist if you prefer.
Breast augmentation is a surgical process that uses your body's own fat or breast implants to increase the size of your breasts. Women choose breast augmentation for many different reasons, but the core goal is to improve self-confidence by feeling good about your body's contours.
Breast augmentation can do more than just increase the size of your breasts. It can also create a more appealing balance between the contours of your breasts and hips, or replace volume lost after pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Some women pursue breast augmentation after undergoing a full or partial mastectomy. Traumatic injury can also change the size or shape of your breasts.
No matter why you're seeking breast augmentation, you can rest assured that the team at Elevation Plastic Surgery & Med Spa is here to support you through this exciting journey.
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure, so it's important that you're in good overall health before the process begins. Your body is better able to heal when you're healthy, and your recovery process will be far easier to manage.
It's also important that you go into the process with realistic expectations, which is why Dr. Griner works with you to discuss what breast augmentation can and can't do. In some cases, additional or alternative treatments can help you reach your goals. For example, if you have significant sagging but adequate volume, a breast lift might yield better results than breast augmentation.
There are a number of different types of implants available, and Dr. Griner guides you in choosing the implants that are right for your needs.
Saline implants are filled with a sterile saltwater solution. These are a popular option because the implant filling can be safely absorbed and expelled by your body in the event of a rupture.
These implants have an internal structure that gives them additional support, but most of the volume comes from a saline solution.
Silicone implants are filled with a silicone gel that has a more natural feel. It's important to have silicone breast implants checked from time to time to ensure they're intact and properly positioned.
Gummy bear implants are firmer than other options and maintain their form. They are larger at the bottom and tapered at the top to create a realistic shape.
Breast implants also have different exterior textures. Some are smooth and move freely, while others have texture so that scar tissue can form to secure a bond.
Call or use online booking to schedule a consultation at Elevation Plastic Surgery & Med Spa today to learn more about breast augmentation and how it can transform your body.
