Answer: Explant with Bellesoma Method The technique I recommend is explantation with lift using The Bellesoma Method. The implants are removed, your breast tissue is reshaped creating upper pole fullness, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided and nipple sensation (in 95%) is maintained. Later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: En bloc removal and mastopexy A removal of the implants with the capsule and a mastopexy would be ideal in your situation. A vertical mastopexy would limit scars and give you a nice breast shape.

Answer: What are chances of being able to do J-incisions lift with under muscle removal? Hello @Thriving215562, thank you for your question. It is possible a L incision to remove under the muscle prostheses. The incision really depends on the technique used by the specialist who is going to performed the explant. I would suggest a breast reconstruction with reposition of the tissues and in this way achieve an aesthetic result that is adequate with minimal scarring like. Due to the experience of so many explantation surgeries practiced in these 21 years I consider that the L-shaped incision is the minimum and smallest scar possible in this surgery. The best course of action is to consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon for more information and options tailored specifically to your needs. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: Implant removal Dear Thriving215562, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
