I am considering having an explant of my implants. Personally speaking, I do not think they suit my lifestyle anymore - I'm more active and fit, so I find that these implants are starting to feel uncomfortable. I have had 255c Mentor implants placed under the muscle and have had them for 2-3 years already. I'm currently 23 years old and am quite worried about how they will look. I didn't have much tissue to begin with but I have gained 5kgs since and have started to fill up around my body.
Answer: Implant removal In my opinion and with my previous experience removing a lot of implants, I think that after 6-12 months you will have a nice result. it will take time for your skin to retract and you will have small and cute breasts. I wouldnt worry!

Answer: Will my breast look worse than before after explant? Your skin will retract to some degree once the implants are removed. You will lose the volume and upper pole fullness that the implants provide. Once fully healed you will not look exactly like your before photos, but it still may be an acceptable result. If it is not, you can return for a breast lift at a later time.

Answer: Will my breast look worse than before after explant? Thank you for the question. Nothing will replace in-person evaluation when it comes to providing you with good advice. One way to decide whether or not you will be pleased with the results of breast implant removal surgery alone would be to ask your plastic surgeon to show you photographs of what he/she anticipates your breasts will look like after the procedure.

Answer: Explant and Modified Benelli lift I recommend explantation using a modified Benelli approach. Using a circumareola incision, the implants are removed, your breast tissue is reshaped, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Through the same incision, fat transfers can be placed, if additional volume is desired. Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.
