What Breast Implant Removal Involves

Breast implant removal is a surgical procedure where existing implants are taken out, sometimes along with surrounding scar tissue. It can be performed alone or combined with additional procedures, depending on your goals. Common concerns this surgery addresses include:

  • Complications such as rupture, infection, or capsular contracture
  • Symptoms associated with breast implant illness
  • Desire for smaller, more natural breasts
  • Preference for alternative rejuvenation methods such as a lift or fat transfer

I feel the look is so natural and refreshed

I cannot speak highly enough of Dr Clark and his entire team. Every step was explained in detail and executed without a problem. The aftercare has been phenomenal. I’m now 15 weeks post-surgery and over the moon with my results. I feel the look is so natural and refreshed, exactly what I’d hoped it would be.

Who Makes an Ideal Candidate

You may be a good candidate for breast implant removal in the Orlando & Winter Park, FL, area if you are in overall good health, do not smoke, and have realistic expectations. Women considering this procedure often wish to resolve medical concerns, simplify their results, or return to a natural breast size. A personalized consultation ensures your treatment plan supports both your health and aesthetic goals.

Step-By-Step: What to Expect During Surgery

  1. Consultation with your surgeon to review history, concerns, and treatment options
  2. Administration of general anesthesia for your comfort
  3. Incision placement, often through the original augmentation scar
  4. Removal of the implant and capsule (if required)
  5. Refinement of breast tissue, sometimes with a lift or fat transfer
  6. Careful incision closure and application of dressings or compression garments

Healing and Results Timeline

Recovery varies depending on the surgical approach. Swelling, bruising, and discomfort are expected in the first days, managed with medication and compression support. Most women resume light activity within one week, avoiding strenuous exercise for four to six weeks. Final results emerge in three to six months, once swelling subsides and tissue adjusts.

Can I combine removal with another procedure?

Yes, implant removal can be paired with a lift, reduction, or fat transfer for comprehensive results.

What risks should I be aware of?

Risks include bleeding, infection, scarring, and changes in breast sensation, though they are minimized with expert surgical care.

How long does the surgery take?

Most procedures last one to three hours, depending on whether additional techniques like a capsulectomy or lift are performed.
