I am now 63 and am beginning to realize that no other woman my age has such full and perky breasts as I do. I am beginning to feel self-conscious and expect that as I grow older, this will become more of a problem for me. I want to know if breast explantation is an option, what could be done to ensure my breasts would become much smaller and how much this would cost.
Answer: Cost of Breast Implant Removal The cost of breast implant removal will depend upon the type of procedure used. If you have a relatively new implant (less than 5 years), have no contracture, no rupture, deflation, calcification,or breast pain, you can just have the implants removed without removing the capsules. You will need a breast ultrasound or breast MRI to determine the integrity of these implants before deciding on what procedure is best for you. Implant removal without removal of the capsules costs about $1500 for the professional fee plus facility fee. If you need the capsules removed in addition to the implants, it will cost more, about three to four thousand, for the professional fee plus facility and anesthesia fees. These fees, of course, will depend upon the geographical area. I hope this is helpful.

Answer: Cost Considerations for Breast Implant Removal The cost of breast explantation, or breast implant removal, varies widely depending on several factors, such as the complexity of the procedure, the surgeon’s experience, facility/anesthesia fees, and a few other factors. You would need to discuss with your surgeon your specific concerns and aesthetic goals, such as simple implant removal, capsulectomy (removal of the capsule around the implant), or breast lift. It is important to consult with an experienced plastic surgeon who can customize your surgical plan and determine the best technique for you based on your individual anatomy and goals.

Answer: Cost of implant removal The cost to have the implants removed will depend upon several factors. If the capsules need to be removed as well or if you have a ruptured silicone implant, it will add to the expense. In addition, if you need a breast lift, it will of course add to the cost. However, if you have relatively new, intact implants and the capsules are not going to be removed, then you may be able to have the implants removed under local anesthesia. This typically costs about $1500 plus a facility fee. In my operating room in Dallas the facility fee is about $800. If you are having general anesthesia and additional procedures are involved such as removal of the capsules, that will add to the expense.

Answer: Implant Removal This is a very common issue that arises years after implant placement. Cost vary depending on region and experience. The surgery itself can vary greatly depending on your needs. If it's a simple implant removal the cost can be around $4500, (that includes anesthesia and facility fees). If there are issues with your capsules, they should be removed as well. That's more involved and would cost around $7500. If you need a lift at the same time the cost would be around $10,000. If you have saline implants it can beneficial to deflate them before the procedure. This can sometime prevent the need for a lift as the tissue contracts without the weight of the implant on it. See a board certified plastic surgeon to get more information.

Answer: Breast implant removal You can choose to have your implants removed at any time. Costs not only vary by surgeon and region, but also by procedure. If your implants have been in place for many years it may be advisable to have the capsules removed as well as the implants. Your surgeon will also discuss with you if a lift is recommended. The best place to begin is a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to design a surgical plan that is best for you. A quote will be provided based on that plan.
