Breast implant removal is a personal decision, and for some patients, it’s a medically necessary one. But despite its growing prevalence, many myths and misconceptions surround this procedure — which can lead to confusion or fear. Here, we set the record straight about what breast implant removal actually involves, and who is best qualified to perform it.
While implant removal is sometimes done due to complications like capsular contracture or breast implant illness symptoms, many patients choose to remove their implants for aesthetic or lifestyle reasons. These include a desire for a more natural appearance, changes after pregnancy or aging, or simply a shift in personal preferences.
One of the most common fears is that breasts will appear deflated or misshapen after implant removal. In reality, a skilled surgeon can perform breast lift or fat transfer techniques in addition to the removal to restore or even enhance breast contour. Each procedure is tailored to individual patients’ anatomy and goals.
Dr. Danielpour is widely regarded for delivering natural, proportionate results — making your transition after removal seamless and aesthetically pleasing.
Explant surgery requires more than just reversing an augmentation. It often involves removing scar tissue (capsulectomy), addressing asymmetry, and preserving natural breast shape. It’s essential to work with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in breast revision surgery.
Dr. Danielpour is among a small number of surgeons approved and experienced in breast implant revision and removal, with a track record of helping patients feel confident, comfortable, and healthy post-procedure.
Breast implant removal is generally a less invasive process than augmentation, and recovery tends to be faster. Most patients return to normal daily activities within a week or two, with minimal discomfort — especially when the procedure is performed using advanced, tissue-preserving techniques.
Dr. Danielpour focuses on patient comfort and safety, using the latest methods to minimize pain, swelling, and downtime.
