I'm wondering if the healing process for breast explant (local anesthesia and shell only removal) will be quicker since I’ve already had my implants drained and have worn a compression bra for a few weeks? (My breasts have mildly fluffed.) By “quicker,” I mean recovery time before resuming work/exercise and needing to wear the compression bra all over again. Also, will having the shells removed improve the appearance of my breasts? Thank you.

Answer: Removal of breast implants Implants can be removed in one stage or, like in your case, first deflated and then removed. However, after residual shells are removed and the breast loses volume, you may find your breast looking more defeated and saggy; wait and see. The recovery is most likely going to be short and you may resume your exercise as per the surgeon's instructions. Good luck.

Answer: Healing after breast implant removal The healing process for breast explantation can vary from person to person and depends on several factors, including the extent of the procedure and your individual health. However, having already had your implants drained and worn a compression bra for a few weeks may potentially lead to a somewhat smoother and quicker recovery compared to a more extensive explantation procedure.
