Breast Implant Removal After Rupture / Capsular Contracture

Breast Implant Removal | Rupture Capsular Contracture | Beverly Hills Explantation or breast implant removal cosmetic surgery may sometimes be necessary for medical or personal reasons. Implant rupture and capsular contracture are two of key complications that could necessitate this procedure. In some cases, the woman may have a change of aesthetic preferences, and may want to either remove implants or replace them with new implants of a different quality, size, or shape.

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides breast implant removal surgery to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.

Procedure

Breast implant removal surgery is usually performed with the patient under general anesthesia, but in a few cases local anesthesia and sedation may suffice (if the deflated saline implants have to be removed). Following anesthesia, the surgeon will create new incisions along the original incision site to minimize scarring.

If the original incision site is inappropriate, the surgeon will choose another discreet location beneath the breast crease or around the areola. Through the incisions, the surgeon will remove the implant, and possibly the capsular tissue along with any silicone leakage debris. Implant removal may be performed using en bloc capsulectomy in certain cases where the implant along with the capsule must be removed together as one unit.

Breast lift surgery is usually required along with implant removal because the breast tissue may have sagged or stretched over the years following primary breast augmentation plastic surgery. Breast lift will restore a firmer and more youthful look of the breasts and may also involve repositioning or resizing of the areolas.

Advantages

Benefits of breast implant removal can vary from one patient to another, depending on their reason to have the implants removed, their health history, and other factors. Patients for whom breast implant removal is a medical necessity will usually have significant reasons such as elimination of pain and discomfort, avoiding the risk of breast implant illness, improving self-confidence, or a combination of two or more reasons.

Pain relief is a major benefit for some patients, particularly if their heavier and larger implants have been causing neck, back and shoulder pain or discomfort. Capsular contracture could also cause pain and tightness in the breast tissue. These problems will be eliminated once the implants are removed. If the implants are causing a hindrance in mammograms for some women, they may want to have them removed.

Personal Decision

Going ahead with breast implant removal is ultimately the patient’s personal decision. You should evaluate all your options, discuss the risks and benefits with your surgeon, and make an informed choice following a thorough consultation process.

For breast implant removal surgery, the key to success lies in choosing the right surgeon who has the necessary skills and experience to perform this procedure in a safe and predictable manner. A board certified plastic surgeon certified by the ABPS could be your best choice.

How often do you need to replace breast implants?

How often do you need to replace breast implants? | Beverly Hills Many women in the US have a misconception that they will need to replace their breast implants after every 10 years or so. This misconception might be attributed in some part to an FDA report of 2011, which noted that about 20 percent of patients who received breast augmentation cosmetic surgery would require implant replacement in about 10 years.

However, the reality is that breast implant technology and surgical techniques have vastly improved over the last one decade. And even if you presume that the figures estimated by FDA in 2011 still remain valid, four in five women would still continue to enjoy the benefits of their breast implants beyond 10 years.

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides breast implant removal and replacement surgery to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding locations.

Why Implant Replacement may be Needed?

At some point during their lifetime, almost every breast augmentation patient may have to undergo breast implant removal or replacement plastic surgery. These procedures may be necessitated not always because of medical reasons, but in large part because women choose to have their implants changed or removed for cosmetic considerations.

Longevity of your original breast implant surgery would usually be higher if you have chosen good quality implants and the procedure has been performed by an experienced and highly trained breast surgeon.

Here are some of the medical reasons why implant removal or replacement may be required:

Implant Deflation or Rupture

While this is a rare occurrence, particularly in the first few years after implantation, an implant revision will be required if it does happen. A puncture in the saline implant may cause the saline to get released into the body, resulting in implant deflation. Rupture or implant damage may occur in silicone implants, but it will rarely cause silicone gel leakage outside the implant shell because of the high viscosity of the gel. Implants would have to be removed or replaced anyway, even if the deflated or ruptured.

Capsular Contracture

When the implants are placed into the breasts at the time of original breast augmentation, the natural healing mechanism of the body will trigger the formation of scar tissue around the implant. This will create a breast capsule that envelopes the implant. In some cases, the scar tissue may harden, causing tightness or discomfort in the breast.

In some cases, the implant may also get damaged, lose its shape, or move from its position. If capsular contracture occurs, you will have to get the implants removed or replaced.

Removal or Replacement

Breast implant replacement is usually a better option than implant removal because the procedure may be less invasive and additional surgeries may not be required. But in case of breast implant removal, an additional breast lift procedure is often required to tighten and firm up the breast tissue and restore the natural looking breast appearance.
