Fake V. Real

The question of the difference between real vs. fake breasts has become common in celebrity media. The quality of the surgery results in much of the difference between real looking and fake looking breasts. A poor boob job can introduce an unnatural looks. Breast implants are silicone rubber sacs filled with either saline solution or silicone, which increase the size of the breasts. Saline implants are the most commonly used form of implants in the United States. Implants come in different sizes, shapes and textures and a surgeon may place them under or over the chest muscles. Breast implants often sit higher on the chest than real breasts, and they appear fuller and rounder on top than real breasts. Breast implants often have a noticeable gap between the breasts, while real breasts tend to be closer together. Real breasts also fill out more at the bottom and not at the top. When in motion, breast implants often do not move much and will appear to keep their round shape, whereas real breasts will jiggle, bounce or shift depending on movement. There is mostly fat in real breast tissues and is therefore soft, whereas breast implants are more firm and less pliable. Silicone breast implants are generally softer than saline implants because they are made of a thick, gel-like substance that feels similar to fat. Saline implants feel more like muscle instead of fat. When women with breast implants do not wear bras, their breasts tend to stay firm and round. Natural breasts will hang lower and will not jut out much without a bra. Real breasts are mostly fat, which gives them a jiggle quality, if breasts look more like solid muscle, they may fake. One often can identify if breasts are fake by comparing them to the rest of the body. Although there is the rare woman who has a hot body and unusually large natural breasts, more than a few women make the mistake of going too large and getting very big fake breasts. Fortunately, these women are easy to spot: if she has the body of a dancer and breasts like a porn star. Check breast shape and alignment with her movement. Fake breast do not follow body movements as well. Many people associate breast implants with a large cup size, such as a D or DD. However, many women who opt for breast implants choose more natural-looking sizes such as a C or B cup. It can be harder to determine whether a woman has natural or implants at these sizes. In addition, padded bras create a similar effect to breast implants by lifting the breasts and making them appear larger. It can be hard to tell the difference between real breasts and implants when a woman wears a bra.
