Breast augmentation is a common cosmetic procedure that involves the use of breast implants to enhance the size and shape of the breasts. However, there are times when a woman may want to have her implants removed.

There can be numerous reasons why you may want to get your implants removed, and in some cases, breast implant removal may be combined with a breast lift to improve the overall appearance of the breasts. It’s important to speak with your surgeon, to ensure you know what your options are and what may be the most suitable solution for you and your body.

Why Remove Breast Implants?

There are several reasons why a woman may want to remove her breast implants. After years of implants, some women may experience complications such as implant rupture or capsular contracture, while others may experience pain from having larger breasts. Some women may decide to remove their implants due to personal reasons such as a change in lifestyle or a desire for a more natural appearance.

Whatever the reason, if you decide to get your breast implants removed, it’s important to speak with your surgeon about the procedure and your desired outcome.

What Is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift is a surgical procedure that lifts and reshapes the breasts. It involves removing excess skin and repositioning the nipple and areola to a higher position. A breast lift can help to improve the overall shape and contour of the breasts, making them look firmer and more youthful.

If you decide to have your implants removed, you may also choose to have a breast lift performed to help you achieve your desired appearance.

Breast implant removal with a breast lift is a surgical procedure that involves removing the breast implants and lifting and reshaping the breast tissue. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes around 2 hours to complete. During the procedure, the surgeon will make incisions around the areola and down to the breast crease. The implants are then removed, and any excess tissue or skin is removed. The nipple and areola are repositioned to a higher position, and the remaining breast tissue is lifted and reshaped to improve the overall appearance of the breasts.

Benefits of Breast Implant Removal with a Breast Lift

There are several benefits to having breast implant removal with a breast lift, including:
