No there are different ones. One woman I know had an implant that stopped her having periods. My DIL had an implant that gave her a period every 2 weeks. Maybe the same thing affecting different people in different ways, I'm not sure - sorry, I'm neither a woman, nor a gynocologist.
Implanon is the one my Daughter-In-Law had, and hated (period every 2 weeks).
A former friend had an implant and never had a period - so I presume it was a different one, unless it just worked differently with her. Unfortunately we are no longer in contact, so I can't find out what she was using.
As I said, no "personal" experience here, so check with a doctor.

It's three years. It makes some people bleed non stop til they have it removed. It's also ridiculously expensive in the US.

Pretty sure there's only one, but I could be wrong.
Implanon?
There's also an injection you can have every three months. It's chemically the same as the implant, just different delivery.
