Abstract An adjustable mammary prosthesis (10,100) for augmen- tation mammoplasty is comprised of an outer teardrop-shaped, gel filled container or shell (12,112). Disposed within the outer shell is a column-shaped container (19,119) with a valve (20,120). The projection (H1) of the prosthe- sis can be altered without altering the base diameter (B) of the prosthesis by adding an appropriate volume of fluid to the column-shaped container (19,119) via the valve (20,120) to increase its height and the projection (H2) of the outer container. In another embodiment, a pillow-shaped second inner container (16) is positioned between the top of the column-shaped inner container (19) and the underside of the top of the outer container (12).
