What Is Breast Implant Removal?

Breast implant removal, also known as explant surgery, is a procedure that involves the removal of breast implants, either due to complications or personal choice. This surgery may be performed for a variety of reasons, including:

  • Personal Preference: Some women decide they no longer wish to have breast implants and want to return to their natural breast size.
  • Complications: Issues such as capsular contracture, implant rupture, or breast implant illness (BII) can cause discomfort and necessitate the removal of implants.
  • Health Concerns: Some women experience adverse reactions to their implants, or choose to remove them for peace of mind.
  • Aesthetic Reasons: Over time, changes in body shape or preferences may lead women to seek implant removal or a revision of their results.

At Dr. Paris Sabo’s practice in Newport Beach, breast implant removal is customized to your unique needs, ensuring you achieve a natural, harmonious look while addressing any concerns you may have.

Reasons for Breast Implant Removal

Women may seek breast implant removal for a variety of personal, medical, or aesthetic reasons. Common motivations include:

  • Capsular Contracture: A condition where scar tissue forms around the implant, causing hardening, discomfort, and changes in appearance.
  • Implant Rupture or Deflation: Over time, implants may rupture or deflate, requiring their removal or replacement.
  • Breast Implant Illness (BII): Some women report symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, and autoimmune issues that they believe are linked to their implants. Removing the implants can help alleviate these symptoms.
  • Personal Lifestyle Changes: Women’s aesthetic preferences often change over time, and many choose to remove their implants to achieve a more natural look.
  • Aging and Aesthetic Changes: As the body ages, implants may no longer look or feel the way they did initially, prompting women to opt for removal or revision.

No matter the reason, Dr. Paris Sabo ensures that each patient receives a personalized treatment plan designed to provide relief, restore confidence, and enhance their overall appearance.

What to Expect During Your Breast Implant Removal Consultation

Your breast implant removal journey begins with a thorough consultation at our Newport Beach office. During this appointment, Dr. Paris Sabo will listen to your concerns and goals, assess your overall health, and recommend the best approach to achieving the results you desire. Here’s what to expect during your consultation:

  1. Discussion of Goals: Dr. Sabo will ask about your reasons for seeking implant removal, whether they are medical, aesthetic, or personal.
  2. Health Evaluation: A physical examination will help assess the condition of your implants, the surrounding breast tissue, and any potential complications that may affect the procedure.
  3. Personalized Treatment Plan: Based on your needs, Dr. Sabo will develop a customized plan that may include a simple implant removal, removal with a breast lift, or an implant exchange if you’re considering a different size or type of implant.
  4. Surgical Overview: Dr. Sabo will explain the surgical process, recovery time, and what you can expect in terms of results and potential scarring.

This consultation is your opportunity to ask questions, understand the procedure in detail, and feel confident moving forward with your decision.

How Breast Implant Removal Surgery Is Performed

Breast implant removal is typically performed under general anesthesia, and the procedure can take between 1 to 3 hours depending on the complexity of the surgery and whether additional procedures, such as a breast lift, are performed.

Here’s what you can expect during breast implant removal surgery:

  • Incision Placement: Dr. Sabo will use the same incisions from your initial breast augmentation surgery whenever possible to minimize additional scarring. Common incision locations include inframammary (under the breast fold), periareolar (around the nipple), or transaxillary (in the armpit).
  • Implant Removal: Dr. Sabo carefully removes the breast implants, and if necessary, the surrounding scar tissue (capsule) is also removed in a process called capsulectomy. This step is particularly important in cases of capsular contracture or implant-related health issues.
  • Additional Procedures: Some women choose to combine implant removal with a breast lift to tighten and reshape the breast tissue, especially if significant sagging has occurred after the removal of large implants.
  • Closing the Incision: Once the implants are removed and any additional procedures are completed, Dr. Sabo will close the incisions using sutures, ensuring minimal scarring and a smooth recovery.

Breast Implant Removal Recovery Process

Recovery from breast implant removal is generally smoother than the initial augmentation surgery, though it varies based on the complexity of the procedure. Here’s a general timeline of what to expect:

  • First Few Days: You may experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medications. Rest is essential during this time.
  • 1 Week: Most patients can return to light activities within a week, but you’ll need to avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting.
  • 2-4 Weeks: Swelling will begin to subside, and you’ll notice more of your final breast shape emerging. You can gradually resume more physical activities as you feel comfortable.
  • 6-8 Weeks: By this point, most swelling will have resolved, and your breasts will have settled into their new shape. Dr. Sabo will monitor your recovery closely to ensure optimal results.

Dr. Sabo and her team will provide you with detailed post-operative instructions to help ensure a smooth recovery and the best possible outcome.

Breast Implant Removal with Breast Lift

Many women choose to combine breast implant removal with a breast lift to enhance the final aesthetic outcome. After implant removal, some patients experience sagging or loss of volume, especially if the original implants were large. A breast lift can tighten the surrounding tissue and reposition the nipple to create a firmer, more youthful breast shape.

During your consultation, Dr. Sabo will discuss whether combining your implant removal with a breast lift is right for you, ensuring your results are aligned with your goals and body type.

Frequently Asked Questions About Breast Implant Removal

How long does recovery take after breast implant removal?
Recovery typically takes 2 to 4 weeks, with most patients returning to normal activities within a week. Full recovery and final results may take a few months as the breasts adjust to their new shape.

Will I need a breast lift after implant removal?
Not all women need a breast lift after implant removal, but if there’s significant sagging or loss of volume, a lift may be recommended to restore a perky, youthful appearance. Dr. Sabo will discuss your options during your consultation.

Will there be noticeable scars after breast implant removal?
Dr. Sabo uses the original incision sites whenever possible to minimize scarring. Over time, scars will fade and become less noticeable, and Dr. Sabo will provide advice on how to care for your scars to promote optimal healing.
