PREPARATION AND PROCEDURE
Breast implant removal is typically an outpatient procedure performed under general anesthesia. Dr. JOHANNES often utilizes the same incisions from your previous augmentation to minimize scarring. The process begins with the removal of the implant from the breast pocket. If issues like rupture or capsular contracture contributed to dissatisfaction, he will also remove any affected tissue. Following this, Dr. JOHANNES tightens the surrounding skin and tissue in a breast lift before closing the incisions.

RECOVERY RESULTS AND AFTERCARE
After surgery, a compression garment will be applied to your chest to reduce swelling and enhance circulation during recovery. Expect some bruising and discomfort, which can be managed with oral pain medication in the initial recovery days. Most patients return to work within a week since the explant procedure is generally less invasive than the original augmentation. However, it's advisable to avoid upper body activities or strenuous exercise for four weeks to ensure proper healing.
MAINTAINING YOUR RESULTS
The results of your breast implant removal will become visible as swelling and bruising diminish, typically within a couple of weeks, though complete resolution may take up to three months. Once healed, you can enjoy renewed confidence in your breast appearance. Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided, and our team remains available to address any questions or concerns you may have throughout your recovery.
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH BREAST IMPLANT REMOVAL
As with any surgical procedure, risks include scarring, bleeding, infection, hematoma, and potential unsatisfactory results that may require further surgery. Selecting a highly qualified surgeon like Dr. JOHANNES can help mitigate these risks.
​
After implants are removed, breast appearance can vary based on factors such as how long the implants were in place and their size. Typically, breasts may revert to their pre-implant size and shape; however, some sagging may occur. If desired, Dr. JOHANNES can perform a breast lift during the removal process to enhance the aesthetic outcome.
Transportation After Surgery
Due to general anesthesia used during the procedure, you will need someone to drive you home afterward.
