How Long Does a Popped Implant Take to Deflate?

I would advise that you have your intact implant intentionally deflated (assuming its saline as well)- it will take about 24 hours for the implant to deflate. You'll probably notice some difference in the appearance of your breasts since the implants do not deflate completely no matte how long they have been ruptured. A saline implant replacement procedure is straightforward, assuming you do not have any capsular contracture or implant malposition issues.

Having the intact implant deflated will remove the fluid immediately (because it is aspirated into a syringe). However, before you do that, it is worth finding out whether the ruptured implant is under warranty. Depending on the manufacturer and when the implant was placed, you may be under a warranty for a replacement implant. In some cases, if the rupture occurs within 10 years, the implant manufacturer will even pay for a large part of the anesthesia/operating room/surgeon's fee. I recommend contacting your plastic surgeon to find out what you are eligible for as this may help you in making your decision.
