Can I get an explant without a lift? (Photo)

October 18, 2020
Asked By:Kathy101 in San Francisco, California

I currently have 450 CC saline implants under the muscle, think I have Bii, I've had mysterious autoimmune symptoms for the last 9yrs. They're not improving & no diagnosis. I need to remove this set with a capsulectomy & if my symptoms improve, can I REIMPLANT under the muscle again if my symptoms turn out to not be related?Also was thinking of explant, (fluff)Do a lift in 6 months, then possibly add some fat transfer 6 months later if my health improves and I don't want to reimplant.
