Is There Such a Thing As Tissue Recoil After Breast Explant Without Replacement Implants and if So How Long Does It Take?

Unfortunately, I don't think there is a single answer to your question.  How much your breast tissue will retract back and form a nicely shaped breast after implant removal depends on many things:  The quality of your skin, stretch marks, how big the implants were, how long there were in, genetics, how old you are, etc.   A younger woman with tight, firm skin and small implants placed recently would likely have the best result, compared to an older woman with thin, inelastic skin, who breast-fed and has large implants from years ago.  

Hope that helps a little!

Based on the limited information you have given and if I interrupt "recoil" as meaning  skin shrinkage, I will attempt to answer your question:

1) breast implants not only protrude forward but over time will make the Chet wall concave

2) breast skin stretches just like with pregnancy. Each persons viscoelasic properties are unique to them. A good indicator would be how your abdominal skin "recoiled" after delivery.

3) age pays a factor, the oder we get the less collagen and elastin fibers we have, thus the less "recoil"

4) the size of the implants also  will influence how stretched out your skin became to accommodate your implants

5) after 9 months of explanation you will have most likely reached a steady state with no further significant change.
