For me it is a world of difference from the saline implants. There was really no give to the saline implants and they really were uncomfortable to me. I felt like I had something under my skin. I could also feel the "ripples" around the edges of the implants. With the silicone, they are much more pliable and I can't even tell they are there. My b/f also says that they feel much better than the saline.
