I had breast implant 275cc silicone placed through my underarm. I just had an mri and it shows the implant is intact with no rapture or leaking, no capsular contracture. I want it out because my natural breast have grown so much in the past 7years because I gained 30pounds. I need a doctor who can help remove the implant through my armpit, I do not need the capsule removed as it is really soft with no problems. I scar easily and do not want a scar under my breast. Thank you

You might consider exchanging your implants for something smaller that will fit your frame and tissue better and not be so heavy. You were not happy prior to implants and may not be happy once removed. If removed or exchanged, the lowered fold can be tightened.
Hello @EJLove, thank you for your question. Many women who have breast implants worry if the breast will look deflated. The fact is that breast implant removal if performed with breast reconstruction does not leave you with the breast deflated. In fact, it would be beneficial for the patients...
An in person examination is best, but as the implants are large you may find a better result with a lift. The skin has likely stretched out to a degree to accommodate for the implants and when they are removed your breasts may appear somewhat flat and empty.
