Breast Implant Removal Should Be Done Delicately and Accurately

In the past, a slim and thin body shape received a lot of attention,

but these days, as times have changed somewhat, body lines with more volume

are being viewed more positively.

As a result, more people are getting breast augmentation surgery to regain lost confidence,

and there are also many who overcome a small-breast complex

through successful surgery.

However, breast surgery is a relatively major procedure performed under general anesthesia,

so it must be carefully considered and carried out at a trustworthy clinic.

Otherwise, there may be cases where breast implant removal surgery is needed

due to various post-surgery side effects.

To avoid having to proceed to implant removal surgery,

it is important to thoroughly prepare for the first operation and choose a place

where a plastic surgery specialist with extensive clinical experience is present.

Then, let’s look at the cases in which breast implant removal surgery is performed

at Gangnam W Plastic Surgery Clinic.

Implant removal surgery is recommended for those who have inflammation or seroma,

resulting in breast deformity and pain, as well as those whose implants have ruptured.

It is also possible to proceed with a customized procedure through a precise diagnosis

in cases where capsular contracture has developed and the capsule has thickened,

causing changes in touch.

Lastly, there are cases where the size is unsatisfactory after surgery,

or it feels unnatural.

If the shape is unsatisfactory or feels unnatural,

it may not be a health issue, so you can think more carefully about surgery.

However, if abnormal symptoms such as side effects or pain are found,

you should consider breast implant removal surgery as soon as possible.

If the implant is old or damaged,

it becomes necessary to address issues such as implant damage or treatment of

foreign-body inflammatory reactions.

Also, when implant removal is performed due to side effects after breast surgery,

accurate preoperative testing is needed to precisely identify the condition of the implant and capsule

before proceeding with surgery.

Whether or not to remove the capsule is an important point

to check when removing breast implants.

The capsule is formed as a reaction of our body

to defend against an external foreign substance called an implant.

You must decide whether to remove the capsule, which is the thin white membrane surrounding the implant,

or leave the capsule in place and remove only the implant.

Since the capsule itself is part of our body,

it does not necessarily need to be removed,

but a capsule with capsular contracture, a ruptured implant,

a calcified capsule, or a capsule with seroma or microinflammation

must be removed.

The longer the implant has been in place, and the more the skin has stretched to fit the breast size,

with reduced elasticity,

the more likely the breast may take on a sagging shape.

In particular, if the nipples and areolas have already descended to the inframammary fold before removal surgery,

the breasts may appear even more drooped after surgery,

so it is advisable to correct breast sagging at the same time as implant removal.

Let’s take a look at the features of implant removal surgery

at Gangnam W Plastic Surgery Clinic.

First, pain is minimized.

Because the surgery is performed using an endoscope,

nerves and blood vessels are preserved, so pain is relatively low.

Second, side effects and inflammation are reduced.

Problems are resolved by removing side effects and inflammation caused by the implant.

Third, reoperation is possible after implant removal.

If the position is appropriate after the implant is removed,

reoperation to insert an implant is also possible.

Lastly, breast sagging is corrected.

If the skin and elasticity have decreased and the breasts have sagged,

they can be corrected at the same time as implant removal.

These are the questions that people considering implant removal surgery

most want to ask before consultation.
