Specialists in Breast Implants Removal

Overview of Breast Implant Removal

Breast implant removal is a surgical procedure aimed at removing breast prostheses for medical or personal reasons. With a success rate above 95%, this surgery can be performed alone or combined with other techniques to ensure satisfactory aesthetic results.

Evaluation and Decision Process

The most common reasons for removal include capsular contracture, implant rupture, desired size change, or simply preference for natural breasts. It's essential to conduct a detailed evaluation of current implant conditions and breast tissue to determine the best surgical approach.

Procedure Preparation

Preparation includes specific imaging tests like MRI or ultrasound to assess implant condition, along with standard laboratory tests. It's essential to discontinue medications that affect blood clotting and follow all nutritional guidelines in the weeks leading up to surgery.

The Surgical Procedure

Surgery can use different approaches, depending on implant condition and aesthetic goals. Removal techniques with total, partial, or en bloc capsulectomy are chosen according to each case. The procedure typically takes 1 to 3 hours and can be performed under general or local anesthesia with sedation.

Recovery Process

Initial recovery requires about two weeks of specific care. Wearing a surgical bra is essential, and gradual return to activities should follow medical guidance. Warning signs include excessive redness, fever, or intense pain, which should be immediately reported.
