Breast Implant Removal
What is breast implant removal?
The aim for breast implant removal surgery is to either revise or remove implants from patients who have undergone a breast augmentation or reconstruction. Patients will generally choose to revise or remove implants due to complications.
Not only will Dr Hanikeri remove the implants, he will also remove any material which has leaked out of them, and the scar tissue which has formed around it.
Other patients who elect to have this surgery may be revising the size, shape or position of their implant.
Why are breast implants removed or repositioned?
Patients who are suitable for breast implant removal include the following:
- Leaking or ruptured implants
- Concerns over Breast Implant Illness (BII)
- Concerns about Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (BIA-ALCL)
- Capsular contracture (hardness around the implant)
- Development of dead tissues around the implant
- Displacement of breast implant
- Build-up of calcium
- Infection and or bleeding
- No longer want implants
