What Is Breast Explant Surgery?
Breast explant surgery is the process of removing breast implants from a previous augmentation procedure. Women may choose explant surgery for a variety of reasons, including:
- Capsular contracture (hardening of scar tissue)
- Implant rupture or leakage
- Breast Implant Illness (BII) symptoms
- Lifestyle or aesthetic changes
- Desire to return to a natural look
The procedure may also include capsulectomy (removal of scar tissue), breast lift (mastopexy), or fat grafting to reshape the breast after implant removal.
The Breast Explant Procedure at The Brandow Clinic
At The Brandow Clinic, every explant journey begins with an in-depth consultation. Dr. Brandow will listen to your concerns, perform a thorough examination, and recommend the most appropriate surgical approach for your body and goals.
Common procedure components may include:
- Total or en bloc capsulectomy (removing both implant and capsule, often recommended for BII cases)
- Breast lift (mastopexy) to restore firmness and shape
- Fat grafting for natural volume enhancement if desired
Surgical Overview:
- Anesthesia: General anesthesia
- Procedure Time: 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on complexity
- Recovery Time: Most patients return to non-strenuous activities within 7–10 days
You’ll receive personalized post-operative care instructions, and our compassionate team will be with you through each stage of healing to ensure your comfort and peace of mind.
