How Long Do I Need to Wait For Breast Implant Removal? I Want Them Out ASAP.

Thank you for your question. There are both physical and psychological reasons to wait 3 months before removing your new breast implants.

Implant removal will be easier and healing potentially less complicated if you give your tissues time to recover from the first surgery.

It is quite common for patients to be very self conscious and regretful immediately after breast augmentation. It takes at least 6 weeks to psychologically adjust to your new breast size. Most patients are quite happy with their breast implants after this initial adjustment period.

I agree that there is a normal "adjustment" period that takes place after breast augmentation, and that some patients experience a short time period of panic or even "buyers regret". This is  more often related to the post-operative size.  In my experience it is VERY uncommon for a woman to immediately want her implants removed if there was good pre-operative communication between the doctor and patient regarding expectations.  In the rare cases that this occurs I think 3 months is a good general rule however, such an uncommon occurance needs to be carefully evaluated on a case by case basis.  

You are very early in your healing process from surgery.  There is definitely a psychological as well as physical adjustment period after getting implants. You most likely still have a fair amount of swelling and the implants have not had a chance to settle yet.  You may wish to wait until approximately 3 months after surgery to get a better picture of your new look before removing them.  However, if you truly want them out right away, you can get them removed at any time.
