This woman had 30+ year old breast implants that had become hard as rocks over the years. She thought that they could not be removed without causing terrible damage to her breasts. This is a common fear of patients who desire implant removal. Another common fear is that they will need a new set of implants. In most cases, it is possible to remove the old implant and the surrounding scar tissue and then do a lift.
