Breast Implant Removal: Q&A

Do You Have to Find a 'Special Implant Removal' Surgeon when Explanting?
Hi, I have decided to remove my implants and have visited two surgeons. One was very positive about my results after explantation. The other didn't think I would be happy with the results. Both are highly regarded surgeons. Do you think the more positive surgeon is more confident in his technique or is it a simple procedure that doesn't take much time? Does the surgeon matter when explanting? Should I find a specialist? Thank you

I have a book illustrating implant removal case pictures I have performed. It is not difficult or hard to predict results. For some reason we doctors find it psychologically hard to agree to remove implants but we have no problem putting them in. Imagine that!

Different doctors will advise you differently based on their training and experience. If you talk to ten different plastic surgeons you might very well get ten differing opinions. Each patient is unique. Still, any board-certified plastic surgeon should be competent to remove breast implants. This does not require any specialized training.

Breast implant removal
The final results after breast implant removal is not predictable. There are many factore that interlpay during the healing process,

Amount of breast tissue available
Position of the implant
Enblock removal with the capsule
The quality of skin
The presence of ptosis
The incision used
These are some of the major issues that need to be assessed. But no body can tell you exactly how the breast is going to heal.

Rest Implant Removal “Specialist”?
Thank you for the question.
I would suggest that you select a well experienced plastic surgeon well-versed in breast surgery to do your procedure; a “specialist” is not necessarily needed.
What your breasts will look like after explantation depends on several factors such as: the quality of skin elasticity (the better the elasticity the better the skin will bounce back), the size of the implants used (the larger the implant the more trouble you may have with...
