I have double lumen implants, now 30 years old, never replaced, never had a problem other than encapsulation. Can they be removed safely? I am 73years old, excellent health, no medications and physically active. Want some options please.

Answer: Implant removal Dear sandy baron, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Generally speaking, it is possible to remove implants as long as you are healthy. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
