Breast Implant Removal

Is This the Right Treatment for Me?

  • You want relief from implant-related pain, rupture, or BII concerns—and you’re ready for a lighter, natural contour.
  • Plan on 5–7 days of light downtime; heavy lifting and high-impact workouts usually resume around week 6.
  • Ideal candidates maintain a stable weight, are nicotine-free (or willing to quit 4 weeks pre/post-op), and have normal labs for safe healing.
  • Alternatives like smaller implant exchange, a breast lift, or fat-graft augmentation are available—we’ll map out every option during your consult.

FAQs

How much does breast implant revision or removal cost?
Breast implant removal starts at $9,800, while exchanging for new premium silicone implants starts at $12,500. Fees include your board-certified surgeon, anesthesia, soft surgical bra, and 12-month doctor-guided follow-up. With approved credit, payments can be as low as $275–$425 per month after a typical deposit. Exact quote after exam; individual needs vary.
Can I go home the same day?
Yes. Explant surgery is outpatient—you’ll relax in recovery for about an hour, then a trusted adult can drive you home to start healing in your own bed.
Do I need special after-care?
Plan on a soft surgical bra for two weeks, sleeping on your back, and cool compresses for the first 48 hours. We rarely need drains or lymphatic massage with our technique.
Are there alternative procedures or complementary add-ons?
Depending on your goals, you can combine removal with a breast lift for added firmness, opt for a fat transfer to restore subtle volume, or exchange to smaller implants—your surgeon will outline the best plan.
Will it hurt?
Most patients describe mild soreness for 2–3 days, easily managed with prescription or over-the-counter pain relievers. Discomfort is usually less intense than the original augmentation.
What about scarring?
Whenever possible, we reopen your existing implant scar. If a new incision is needed, it’s hidden in the breast crease and typically fades over 6–12 months with proper scar care.
How long until I see the final result?

You’ll feel lighter right away, with most bruising gone in 1–2 weeks. Shape settles by week 6, and subtle refinements continue for up to a year as skin retracts and tissues heal.
