Abstract: Implantable medical prosthesis, in particular a breast implant, comprising gel-type filling materials having different rigidities in a specific geometrical arrangement. For example, a breast implant comprises an outer shell and at least one first gel-type filling and at least one second gel-type filling, wherein at least one first gel-type filling has a softer consistency than at least one second gel-type filling, wherein said at least one first gel-type filling extends predominantly along the posterior part of the prosthesis, and wherein said at least one second gel-type filling extends predominantly along the superior portion of the anterior surface of the prosthesis without extending along the entirety of such anterior surface of the prosthesis.
