Hello! I am scheduled to explant next week and have just found out that I am pregnant. I will be 5 weeks next week on the day of surgery and am now very concerned about possible effects! I have read various things where some say it’s okay and some say to definitely wait. Any answers are appreciated if someone could help with my procedure being during the very beginning stages!

Answer: Breast implant removal at 5 weeks of pregnancy If this is an elective procedure then you should wait until after your pregnancy to have her implants removed. Implant removal is usually done in the operating room under general anesthesia. We usually do not recommend putting a pregnant person under general anesthesia for an elective surgery which can safely be delayed until after the pregnancy. I would recommend that he contact to her plastic surgeons office immediately and let them know about this new development. They will most likely want to reschedule you for a later operative date.By the way, congratulations on your pregnancy!
