Breast implant removal, silicone 250cc. Would I be a good candidate? (Photo)

Thank
you for your question. It is difficult to predict what the breasts will
look like after removal of the breast implants. 
I would guess that the breasts may look a bit stretched out due to the
implants.  It is possible that you may
need a breast lift and/or fat grafting replace the loss of volume and remove any
excess skin that may have developed due to the breast implant placement.  
Please see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for your procedure.  I wish you the best of luck with your research.

Excellent questions. I have had many patients like you and my experience is that the breast doesn't change that much from the time the implants are removed. That is, things look good initially and only look better with time. I have not had to do any breast 'lift' or other manipulations and the  patients have been uniformly thrilled. My usual routine is to remove the implants and leave a small drain in place for one week that is passive (gauze pad only); the patient is allowed to shower. Full aerobic activity is allowed at two weeks. Hope this helps.Leland Deane MD FACSNew York, NY and Garden City, NY

Thank you for your question and photos. Everyone heals differently and it is impossible to predict exactly how your breast tissue will respond to explantation. I recommend removing them and allowing your breasts to heal. You can make a decision on a lift or not following this. Best of luck. 

No one can truly predict this as each soft tissue envelope will respond differently, but you may do well with just removal. If there is any doubt, explant, using the original incision, and wait 6 months or so to evaluate whether you are pleased with the results.

You
are an excellent candidate for explantation using The Bellesoma Method.  This will reshape your breast tissue creating
upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and
more medial to increase your cleavage. 
Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation and the ability to breast
feed are maintained, if not injured during your previous surgery.  At the same time or later, fat transfers can
be performed if additional volume is desired.

As it has only been three years and if your skin is in good condition, you may return to your original appearance, or close to it.  Many women seem to gain breast tissue after implants, over time.  As the implants are not too large, likely your skin has not been stretched too much.  Areolae tend to shrink after implant removal.  Good luck!

As your implants are of a moderate size and have been in for 2 years, you may return to a look similar to that of your pre op photo.  You will lose the volume that the implants provide, and they may be slightly droopier after explant.  If you are unhappy with the appearance once you have fully healed you can always elect to return for other treatments to improve the appearance.

I would suggest meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon and being examined. Your surgeon will be the best one to give you an opinion about what you may expect after removal based upon how much breast tissue you have. Radiofrequency treatments like ThermiTight could be helpful to tighten skin with very little scarring.

Thank you for the question.   Nothing will replace in-person evaluation when it comes to providing you with good advice.  
Generally speaking, what your breasts will look like after explantation depends on several factors such as: the quality of skin elasticity (the better the elasticity the better the skin will bounce back), the size of the implants used (the larger the implant the more trouble you may have with redundant skin), and the amount of breast tissue present at this time (which may have changed since the time of your breast augmentation).
Life experience since your breast augmentation procedure, such as pregnancy or weight gain weight loss, will potentially influence the factors discussed above. If you take these factors into consideration and apply them to your specific circumstances you may get a good idea of what to expect after the implants are removed.
 Patience is definitely indicated after removal of breast implants; it will take many months/year for the skin to “bounce back” and for you to see the final appearance of the breasts.
In "borderline" cases where there is doubt whether breast lifting is necessary or not, I advise patients to undergo explantation only and to give their breasts the benefit of the doubt  before deciding whether breast lifting would be beneficial.  
 I hope this helps. Best wishes.

Thank you for your question and posting appropriate pictures. You seem to be a good candidate for breast implant removal with or without fat grafting to replace some of the volume. Patients who have fat Injection at the same time as removal of the implants have a much better volume retention  as opposed to waiting to do this another time. If you to remove the implants without fat injection, pocket sutures can provide a internal lift and shape. You would need a consult for precise recommendations either in person or via Skype or FaceTime.
