Breast implant removal

Medical information

Individual assessment and planning

Breast implant removal is surgery to remove breast implants. The indication, scope, and technique depend on medical history, tissues, implant condition, and each patient’s goals.

Depending on clinical findings, planning may consider capsule management, a breast lift, or other approaches. These decisions are made after an in-person evaluation and an informed discussion of risks, limitations, and aftercare.

Symptoms that some patients associate with their implants require a complete medical evaluation. Surgery does not replace investigation of other possible causes and cannot guarantee that symptoms will resolve.
