Mentor breast implants are medical-grade devices used in breast implantation procedures to enhance or reconstruct the breast. They are commonly used in:
These implants are designed to enhance breast tissue volume, shape, and symmetry while maintaining a natural feel.
At JanigaMDs, Mentor offers two primary implant types.
Saline implants are filled with sterile saltwater after they are placed in the breast, meaning they are inserted empty and then carefully adjusted during breast implant surgery to achieve the desired size and symmetry. One of the key benefits of saline implants is that they allow a smaller incision than pre-filled options, since they are filled once positioned.
This also allows the surgeon to fine-tune the volume during the procedure for improved balance and proportion. In the rare event of a rupture, the saline solution is safely absorbed by the body without health consequences.
Mentor MemoryGel breast implants are filled with a cohesive silicone gel specifically engineered to closely mimic the feel and movement of natural breast tissue. This advanced gel consistency helps create a soft, natural contour that integrates smoothly with the surrounding breast tissue, making it a popular choice in breast augmentation procedures.
Key benefits of silicone implants include a more natural look and feel compared to other options, a reduced risk of visible rippling under the skin, and improved overall breast aesthetics with smooth, even shaping. They also offer excellent shape retention over time, helping maintain longer-lasting results.

What sets Mentor Worldwide LLC implants apart from other brands is their extensive clinical history and consistent product innovation.

Key differentiators include:
Mentor implants are also frequently chosen in complex revision cases, including treatment of capsular contracture, implant asymmetry, or prior unsatisfactory outcomes from previous breast implant surgery.
My experience with Dr. Janiga and his office, has been excellent in every way. From office visits to surgery, post-op, scheduling. It’s all been absolutely professional and worth every penny.
My experience with Dr. Timothy Janiga and his entire team has been beyond stellar. He clearly met my needs with concise information and consultation. I felt prepared and in good hands throughout the process. I am now 4 months out from a major “beautification” project and couldn’t be happier with my selection of Dr. Janiga. I had no discomfort, and felt totally safe and cared for throughout the process which included pre-op, post-op and of course, the surgery itself. I highly recommend the team at JanigaMDs.
Let’s face it, there’s only so much you can do yourself through diet and exercise. I am six months post-op on my Breast Augmentation and couldn’t be happier with my results. Before my surgery, I made the investment and consulted with a total of six of the top surgeons in this area before deciding that Dr. Janiga was the best. He is very professional and focused on his patient’s results. I also like that he is a Nevadan. I told him I didn’t know exactly what size I wanted, but how I wanted to look afterwards. He was willing to make the choice for me, and I was right in trusting his expertise. The surgery was a breeze, as was recovery. Also, it must be a great place to work as all of the staff there are so pleasant and helpful, which a testament to the doctors there. I highly recommend Dr. Janiga!
Choosing between saline and silicone implants depends on several important factors, including your body type, aesthetic goals, and surgical considerations. During your consultation at JanigaMDs, your surgeon will carefully evaluate your body frame and existing breast tissue, as well as your desired increase in size and level of projection.
Skin elasticity and chest anatomy also play a key role in determining the most suitable implant type, along with whether the procedure is purely cosmetic breast augmentation or part of breast reconstruction. A patient’s history of prior surgeries or complications is also reviewed to ensure the safest and most effective approach.
Choosing the right surgeon is just as important as selecting the right implant, and at JanigaMDs, Dr. Timothy Janiga and the surgical team bring extensive experience in both cosmetic and reconstructive breast procedures.
