My Doctor said he scraped my breast tissue out before putting in the implants because I hardly had any breast tissue. My implants are to big and high. Causing me neck and back pain. They have been droppy from the second month of having them put in. I would rather have small breast than these 36 DD. I asked for smaller implants the doctor gave me much larger than I wanted. He said I know what men like. Yes he really said that.

Answer: With little or no breast tissue can I have implants removed? Thank you for the question. Nothing will replace in-person evaluation when it comes to providing you with good advice. Having said that, you can certainly have your breast implants removed; the question is whether or not you will be pleased with the appearance of your breasts once the breast implants have been removed. Generally speaking, 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 redundant skin), and the amount of breast tissue present at this time (which may have changed since the time of your breast augmentation). Life experience since your breast augmentation procedure, such as pregnancy or weight gain weight loss, will potentially influence the factors discussed above. If you take these factors into consideration and apply them to your specific circumstances you may get a good idea of what to expect after the implants are removed. Patience is definitely indicated after removal of breast implants; it will take many months/year for the skin to “bounce back” and for you to see the final appearance of the breasts. In "borderline" cases where there is doubt whether breast lifting is necessary or not, I advise patients to undergo explantation only and to give their breasts the benefit of the doubt before deciding whether breast lifting would be beneficial. I hope this helps. Best wishes.

Answer: Breast Implant Removal Hi and thank you for your questions. I am so sorry you did not have a previous good experience. Good communication with your surgeon is key to a good outcome. That being said, yes, your implants can removed. However, without an in person examination of your current situation it is really impossible to give any more educated information. Revision breast surgery is indeed complex and you should get one or two opinions from experienced plastic surgeons. Best of luck.
