Breast Implant Removal
Breast Implant Removal/ Capsulectomy in Miami, Fl
Even though breast augmentation and other breast augmentation procedures (also called augmentation mammoplasty) remain the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures in the United States, a small percentage of women choose to have their breast implants later removed through explant surgery (breast implant removal/implant removal). The choice could be due to a lifestyle decision, a desire to return to a natural breast/natural breast tissue look or required for health reasons caused by an implant rupture/breast implant rupture (including ruptured breast implants). Tissue atrophy due to weight fluctuations and aging, which results in the breasts beginning to sag, could be another reason — often leading patients to consider breast lift at the same time as breast implant removal surgery.

What Is Breast Implant Removal Surgery?
Breast implants are not lifelong devices, and they typically need to be removed or exchanged approximately every 10-15 years. The decision to remove them sooner could be due to aesthetic or medical reasons. Breast implant removal surgery refers to the process in which a highly trained plastic surgeon performs a surgical procedure to remove breast implants (implant removal) in the safest and most efficient manner.
Patients may have different types of implants, including silicone breast implants/silicone implants (such as silicone gel breast implants, silicone gel filled implants, silicone filled breast implants, and gummy bear breast implants) or saline breast implants (saline filled breast implants, saline filled implants, or a saline implant filled with saline solution/sterile salt water). During consultation, we’ll review your prior breast implant surgery and the specifics of your breast implant procedure, including placement relative to the chest muscles, implant surface (smooth vs textured breast implants/textured implants), and your goals after implants are removed (returning to a natural breast, exchanging to new breast implants, or adding a breast lift).
