Considering Breast Implant Removal?

Breast implant removal, also known as explant surgery, is a procedure that removes breast implants and, if necessary, the surrounding scar tissue (capsule). Breast implant removal may be indicated due to:

Implant Complications: Capsular contracture, rupture, leakage, or discomfort
Change in Aesthetic Preferences: Desire for a more natural breast shape
Health Concerns: Autoimmune symptoms or breast implant illness (BII)
Aging & Lifestyle Changes: Changes in body shape, fitness, or personal preference
Poor Implant Positioning: Bottoming out, asymmetry, or unnatural appearance
Desire for Smaller or More Lifted Breasts: Removal can be combined with a breast lift for a more youthful, sculpted look

Some women choose breast implant removal in Beverly Hills with Dr. Galanis to address complications, while others are opting for a more natural aesthetic or lifestyle change. Every patient has a unique story, and Dr. Galanis takes the time to understand your personal goals before designing a treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Your Personalized Breast Implant Removal Options

Breast implant removal is not a one-size-fits-all procedure. Depending on your goals and anatomy, Dr. Galanis offers multiple approaches to ensure the most natural, aesthetically pleasing outcome.

Simple Breast Implant Removal

Implants are removed without modifying breast tissue.
Ideal for patients who do not have capsular contracture or excessive sagging.
May result in a deflated appearance if significant breast tissue does not remain.

Breast Implant Removal with Capsulectomy

The implant and surrounding scar tissue (capsule) are removed.
Necessary for patients with capsular contracture, ruptured implants, or concerns about breast implant illness (BII).
Can be a total capsulectomy (full removal of capsule) or en bloc capsulectomy (removing implant and capsule in one piece).

Breast Implant Removal with a Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

Removes excess skin and lifts the breasts for a firmer, more youthful shape.
Recommended for patients who will experience sagging or deflation after implant removal.
Can be combined with fat transfer for volume restoration.

Breast Implant Removal with Fat Transfer

Natural fat is harvested via liposuction, purified, and injected into the breasts.
Provides a subtle, natural-looking enhancement after implant removal.
Ideal for those who want some volume without implants.

Dr. Galanis will guide you through the best approach for your body, goals, and expectations to ensure balanced, stunning results.

Your Smooth Recovery & Beautiful Results

Breast implant removal is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on the complexity of the case. Healing times vary based on the complexity of the procedure and whether additional treatments like a lift or fat transfer were performed.

Recovery Timeline:

First 24 Hours: Breast implant removal is an outpatient procedure, meaning patients can return home the same day. Expect swelling, tightness, and mild discomfort—oral pain medication provided.
Week 1: Patients can resume light activities but should avoid strenuous exercise.
Week 2: Sutures dissolve naturally, and most patients return to work.
Week 4–6: Patients can return to normal exercise and lifting.
3–6 Months: Final breast shape settles as swelling fully resolves.
