Butt implant removal on 5/2/2024 - what should I expect for recovery?

Allow me to answer your question as best i can without any photos. However, please keep in mind that an in-person, or at least a virtual, consultation with physical exam is first necessary before any legitimate evaluation or final surgical recommendations can be made.

The big question here is, why are you having the implants removed? Perhaps they could be salvaged or revised to improve or eliminate whatever problem you may be having. An important note, an extremely few number of board certified plastic surgeons specialize in buttock or hip implants, so you may need to travel far and away from home to find this particular surgeon. Glad to help.

Your sergeant should be the one guiding you through this process grade.Hopefully you chose a plastic surgeon who has enough experience to have implanted and planted lots of implants.Gluteal implants can create a tissue separation layer that doesn’t always anatomically align when removing the implant.A lot has to do with what technique was used for placing the implant. I think the biggest risk factor is the cutaneous surface sliding down and not ending up with the Correct anatomic alignment.Talk to your provider he or she are the ones responsible for the procedure.I usually encourage people to have in-depth in person consultations before having surgery so patients have a chance to get all their questions answered.Typically removing implants is much easier than placing them so hopefully your recovery should be easy.Good luck,Mats Hagstrom MD
