Over time, your body changes, and some patients may wish to upgrade, change or remove breast implants that no longer suit them. Breast implant removal in Sydney can help you achieve your ideal appearance and correct any imperfections.

Breast Implant Removal at The Refine Clinic

At Refine Clinic, we offer patients the option to remove, alter or correct their breast implants. This means that the surgeon will remove your current implants and will either replace them with your new selections or tighten the skin, remove scar tissue and rejuvenate the surrounding area to ensure a firm, perky result. During your appointment, you will meet with one of our expert surgeons, and you can discuss whether breast explant surgery is right for you.

The Process of Breast Implant Removal Surgery

Breast implant removal is a highly individualised procedure, so it will be uniquely tailored to suit each patient’s needs. Many patients opt to combine the breast explant with a replacement in the event of a rupture, displacement or upgrade to a different size, shape or material. Some patients may develop complications with their implant and need to have them removed. During the procedure, the surgeon will follow along the original incision lines to help minimise scarring and will either adjust any loose skin or replace the implants, based on your desired results. If necessary, any scar tissue that has formed will also be removed.

Who Can Benefit from a Breast Explant in Sydney?

At Refine Cosmetic Clinic, we offer patients who have previously undergone breast augmentation surgery the option to remove them later on. Women may wish to undergo breast implant removal surgery for many reasons, including:

● Changes in shape or size due to pregnancy or breastfeeding
● Issues with the implants, such as capsular contracture or displacement
● A desire to change the size or shape of the implant
● Wanting to switch from saline to silicone implants, or vice versa
● Medical reasons, or due to changes in health or body, such as weight gain

Frequently Asked Questions

What Can You Expect During Recovery?

The recovery of a cosmetic surgery procedure will vary based on the type of treatment you received and your unique body structure. The recovery for a breast implant removal is typically shorter than a breast implant surgery, but patients who have opted to combine this with a breast lift or implant revision may experience longer recovery times. Most patients have no trouble returning to their normal activities within the first few days, but you will need to avoid strenuous activity and heavy lifting for up to three weeks to ensure the stitches heal properly. Whenever possible the original incisions will be used to minimise scarring. Patients can manage redness, swelling or discomfort with medications prescribed by our doctors.

Can I Combine My Procedures?

During your initial consultation, you will be able to discuss your desired cosmetic surgery outcome. We offer a comprehensive range of cosmetic enhancement procedures, many of which can be combined to help achieve optimal results. Breast implant removal surgery, for example, is often combined with a breast lift to help ensure the surrounding tissue remains taut and full after the explant. Many women also opt to combine breast enhancement procedures with body enhancement. Since recovery times will overlap, you can see results sooner rather than having to arrange different appointments.
