ORIGINAL POST

Explant with Lift

WORTH IT
I’m 35 yrs old had 457cc silicone implants removed after 10 yrs. I decided to have the explant due to Breast implant illness issues. I was suffering for 2 yrs and had enough. Dr. Hankins was incredible he gave me exactly what I wanted if not more. I am happy with my natural state for the first time in my life (scars and all). Dr. Hankins listened to me and did what he thought was best for me and my appearance. I didn’t care what size I was after surgery just wanted to feel good again. Bambi the aftercare specialist was amazing. She helped me with my recovery the entire way! No matter the time she was there even during Christmas! Best surgeon hands down. Best staff too! Everyone is super friendly and helpful.

Do you do body lift and arm lift?

How much did it cost for explant and lift all together?

Could you share some of the implant illness you experienced? I am considering this procedure.

Of course. I was losing my hair, I had a rash all across my chest that was very painful. My joints hurt, I was puffy from inflammation, I had horrible migraines. Even my sleep was affected. I saw an allergy specialist and they couldn’t figure it out. Once I saw Dr. Hankins he reassured me it was common with BII and that an explant was recommended. I haven’t had a single symptom since the explant!!! I highly recommend it. It is expensive, but it’s worth every penny.
