How long do I have to wait after Breast Implant Removal before I can get new implants replaced?

Asked By:avtgirl in Granada Hills, CA

I had a breast augmentation but experienced a bleed on one side so an ER surgeon had to reopen my incision on the same day, stop the bleed and evacuate the hematoma. He removed the implant because he said it was too risky to keep for now until the bleeding stopped. How long do I need to wait after the removal to replace the implant?
