What to Expect When You Remove Breast Implants
When you make the decision to remove breast implants, it's important to be prepared for the changes that may occur. While the physical transformation is evident, it's also essential to acknowledge the potential psychological impact. Some patients experience a range of emotions during this process. However, it's important to remember that removing breast implants is a personal choice that can lead to improved well-being and a sense of authenticity.
Visually, you can expect a different shape to your breast profile, as the volume provided by the implants is no longer present. This can result in a flatter look. Additionally, due to the presence of scar tissue around the breasts, indentations might occur. It's crucial to have realistic expectations about these visual changes and embrace the natural appearance that emerges.
Our experienced Miami plastic surgeons at CG Cosmetic will provide guidance and support throughout your breast implant removal journey. They will explain the potential physical and emotional changes in detail during your consultation, ensuring that you have a comprehensive understanding of the process. We are here to help you achieve the best possible outcome and to ensure that you feel confident and comfortable in your own body.

Recovery after Breast Implant Removal
The recovery time for breast implant removal is generally similar to that of the initial breast implant procedure. However, there are some differences to note. Following the surgery, you can expect the swelling to be less noticeable compared to when the implants were in place, as the volume provided by the implants is no longer present. It's important to remember that every individual's healing process is unique, and your specific recovery timeline may vary.
During The Recovery Period
During the recovery period, it is normal to experience bruising and temporary numbness in the breast area. These are common side effects and should gradually subside over time as your body heals. To manage any discomfort, your surgeon will prescribe pain relievers tailored to your needs, helping to alleviate any post-operative pain or discomfort you may experience.
Following the Surgery
Following the surgery, CG Cosmetic will provide you with detailed post-operative care instructions. These instructions will guide you on how to care for your incisions, manage any drains or dressings, and when to schedule follow-up appointments. Adhering to these instructions is crucial for optimal healing and to minimize the risk of complications.
Normal Daily Activities
While recovery times can vary, most patients are able to resume normal daily activities within a few days to a week after the procedure. However, it's important to avoid strenuous physical activities and heavy lifting for a few weeks to allow your body to heal properly. Your CG Cosmetic surgeon will provide specific guidelines based on your individual case.
Throughout your recovery journey, our experienced medical team at CG Cosmetic will closely monitor your progress and provide ongoing support. We are committed to ensuring your comfort and providing the necessary care to help you achieve a smooth and successful recovery.
Remember, patience is key during the recovery process. By following your surgeon's instructions and allowing your body the time it needs to heal, you can expect to see improvements in the appearance and feel of your breasts as you gradually regain confidence in your natural beauty.
Does Insurance Cover Breast Implant Removal?
Determining whether your insurance covers breast implant removal requires careful examination of your insurance policy. Insurance coverage for this procedure varies among providers and is subject to specific policy terms and conditions. While it's important to review your policy in detail, it's worth noting that many insurance companies recognize the medical significance of breast implant removal for women's health.
For example, policies like BlueCross BlueShield often cover the removal of breast implant(s) when there is documented leakage from a silicone-gel breast implant, as it is considered medically necessary. However, it's crucial to review the specific policy details provided by your insurance company to understand the exact coverage criteria.
Keep in mind that insurance coverage for breast implant removal can also vary by state, as regulations and requirements may differ. To determine the coverage available to you, we recommend contacting your insurance provider directly. They will be able to provide you with the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding your specific policy and coverage options.
If your insurance company does not cover the cost of breast implant removal, or if you have any out-of-pocket expenses, it's important to explore alternative options. At CG Cosmetic, we offer financing plans that can help make the procedure more affordable for you. Our team is also available to assist you in understanding the financial aspects and exploring potential solutions.
Breast implants Removal Common Questions
Is breast implant removal surgery painful?
During the procedure, you will be under general anesthesia, ensuring that you are comfortable and pain-free throughout the surgery. After the surgery, some discomfort and soreness can be expected, but your surgeon will prescribe pain medication to help manage any post-operative pain.
Will breast implant removal affect the appearance of my breasts?
Breast implant removal can lead to changes in breast appearance, such as a different breast profile and a flatter look due to the loss of volume provided by the implants. Additionally, scar tissue around the breasts may cause indentations. Your surgeon will discuss these potential changes with you during the consultation, ensuring that you have realistic expectations
Can breast implants be removed without leaving visible scars?
In most cases, incisions are necessary for breast implant removal. The location and length of the incisions will depend on various factors, including the type and placement of the original implants. While efforts are made to minimize scarring and place incisions in inconspicuous areas, it's important to understand that some degree of scarring is inevitable. Your surgeon will provide guidance on scar management techniques to help minimize their visibility over time.
Will breast implant removal affect breastfeeding in the future?
Breast implant removal typically does not affect your ability to breastfeed. However, it's important to note that breast implant surgery itself can impact breastfeeding, so if you had difficulties breastfeeding with implants in place, it's recommended to discuss this with your surgeon. They can provide personalized advice based on your specific situation.
Can I have my breast implants replaced during the same surgery?
Yes, it is possible to have breast implant removal and replacement performed during the same surgery if desired. This option can be discussed with your surgeon during the consultation. Factors such as the condition of the existing implants, your desired outcomes, and your overall health will be taken into consideration to determine the best approach for your specific case.
Can breast implant removal improve my overall health?
While breast implant removal primarily focuses on aesthetic concerns, some individuals may experience improvements in their overall health following the procedure. This can include relief from symptoms such as pain, discomfort, or complications associated with the presence of breast implants. Consulting with your surgeon can provide insight into the potential impact on your specific health concerns.
Are there any long-term effects or risks associated with breast implant removal?
Breast implant removal is generally a safe procedure with minimal long-term effects. However, as with any surgery, there are potential risks involved, such as infection, bleeding, scarring, or changes in breast sensation. Your surgeon will discuss these risks with you during the consultation and provide guidance on how to minimize them.
Can breast implant removal help with symptoms of Breast Implant Illness (BII)?
Breast Implant Illness (BII) refers to a range of symptoms that some individuals with breast implants may experience. While the connection between BII and breast implants is still being studied, some individuals report an improvement in symptoms after having their implants removed. It's important to consult with your healthcare provider to discuss your specific symptoms and concerns.
Will my breasts sag or appear deflated after breast implant removal?
The impact on breast shape and appearance after implant removal can vary depending on factors such as the length of time the implants were in place and the elasticity of your skin. In some cases, the breasts may appear slightly deflated or have a looser skin envelope. Your surgeon can discuss options such as breast lift procedures to address any concerns about sagging or changes in breast shape.
Can breast implant removal be performed using a minimally invasive technique?
In some cases, breast implant removal can be performed using a minimally invasive technique, such as an endoscopic approach. This technique involves smaller incisions and may result in less scarring and a quicker recovery compared to traditional open surgery. Your surgeon can evaluate your specific situation and determine if you are a candidate for a minimally invasive approach.
