I am not re implanting with implants, had no lift, both ruptured with one with bad capsular contracture.
Answer: When can drains come out after breast implant removal? Thank you for sharing your question. In most instances the timing of drain removal is dependent on the amount of output over a 24 hour period. Once this typically diminishes to less than 20-30cc/24 hour period your surgeon will be more apt to remove them. Hope this helps.

Answer: Drains Drains are used to pull excess fluid from the pocket while the breast heals. They are removed based on the drainage output. This varies by patient. Typically if used the drains stay in between a few days to about a week. Contact your surgeon for more details.

Answer: When can drains come out after breast implant removal? Hello! Thank you for the question! Drains are used to eliminate the potential space from where the implant was. It will evacuate the fluid that will inevitably develop and will allow adherence of the breast back to its normal anatomical position. External compression also helps. Typically drains will remain place ~1-2wks or once fluid is about

Answer: When can drains come out after breast implant removal? Thank you for your question. The drains are in so that your body can focus on healing instead of trying to reabsorb the fluids associated with surgery. It is common for them to be in for 5-10 days or so, depending on the extent of the surgery being done. Once the fluid collection amounts are minimized, your surgeon will remove them. Good luck with your journey!Dr. K.
