If I have 300 cc implants and get them removed with no lift how will it look? (photo)

Great question!  You are correct that often times with volume is removed, there is remaining excess skin.  However, the skin will retract to a certain extent.  The amount of retraction will depend on many factors such as age, skin condition, elasticity of the skin, previous pregnancies, weight loss, ect.  Many patients who undergo explantation are happy with the retraction of the skin over time and do not elect to have a breast lift done.  However, after 1 year, if they are still unhappy, then a breast lift can be performed.  However, this is unknown as it varies from patient to patient and also your own personal goals.  Seek a consultation with a few board certified plastic surgeons and go with the one you feel most comfortable with.Best of luck and hope this information helps!

Thank you for the question.  
 
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.

There are several factors that influence how breasts will appear when implants are removed.  Some include size of implant, length of time implants have been in place, and elasticity of the tissues.  Upon removal you will lose the volume the implants have provided but your skin will retract to some degree.  I encourage you to meet with a board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation. After an examination your surgeon will be able to give you a better idea what you could expect from implant removal.
