Reduce Saline Breast Implant Volume Without Surgery?

The short answer is no. No matter how small a needle used the implant would deflate as water molecules are so small.Surgery is necessary in all cases. On the positive side the procedure and recovery would be much less than the initial procedure if this is the only thing being done.

Hi,it is not possible to insert a needle directly into the implant without puncturing the implant, unless it has a special port, more commonly used in expanders than actual implants. You would require another surgery.

For conventional saline filled silicone elastomer prosthesis implants, it is impossible to remove saline with a needle and keep the implant intact without surgery.
Furthermore, even if you could do it surgically, reducing all but the largest implants by 70 degrees would likely result in a higher rate of implant faillure and ruptre.

It is only possible to adjust saline implant volumes without surgery if you happen to have the type of implant that has a special port. These implants are very rare, and in fact I do not use them. However, saline volume can be adjusted with a very minor procedure which; sometimes even using local anesthesia.

Hi, unfortunately volume cannot easily be added to or removed from an implant without surgery. Piercing a saline implant with a needle will permanently damage it and it will continue to leak and eventually completely deflate. To change the size, you would require surgery to remove the implant and either partially deflate it or more likely replace it with a new, smaller implant. The problem with partial deflation in saline implants is that you are likely to get an underfilled implant which would be more prone to rippling and folding on itself. I hope this helps. Good luck, /nsn.
