Breast Implant Removal Gallery
Patient 21
Description:
This patient underwent breast augmentation in 2011 with 450cc smooth , round silicone implants placed below the muscle. I performed a complete capsulectomy and removal of her implants, leaving no scar capsule left behind.
Patient 22
Description:
This patient originally underwent breast augmentation with smooth, round 375cc Mentor saline implants in 2004. Both implants were in the partially subpectoral position. I removed her implants and performed a complete capsulectomy on each side as well as performing a bilateral breast lift. The post-op photos were taken 6 weeks after implant removal.
Patient 23
Description:
This patient underwent breast augmentation in 2013 with 675cc smooth , round high profile saline implants placed below the muscle. I removed her implants and performed a complete capsulectomy, leaving no scar capsule left behind. No mastopexy performed.
Patient 24
Description:
This patient originally underwent breast augmentation with smooth, round 375cc high profile saline implants in 2009. Both implants were in the partially subpectoral position. I removed her implants and performed a complete capsulectomy on each side. No breast lift was needed.
Patient 25
Description:
This patient underwent breast augmentation and simultaneous breast lift surgery in 1997 with 375cc smooth , round moderate profile plus saline implants placed below the muscle. I removed her implants and performed a complete capsulectomy. A repeat mastopexy was also performed. This post-explant photo was taken at four weeks post-op.
Patient 26
Description:
This patient originally underwent breast augmentation with smooth, round 457cc silicone implants in 2011. Both implants were in the partially subpectoral position. I removed her implants and performed a complete capsulectomy on each side. No breast lift was needed.
Patient 27
Description:
This patient underwent breast augmentation surgery in 2015 with 275cc smooth , round silicone implants placed above the muscle. I removed her implants and performed a full en bloc capsulectomy. She had significant breast asymmetry, as can be seen in her pre-explant photos, therefore, I performed a bilateral mastopexy as well, to include a slight reduction of her right breast in order to create much closer breast symmetry. This post-explant photo was taken at seven weeks post-op.
Patient 28
Description:
This patient underwent breast augmentation surgery with placement of Mentor brand 300cc smooth , round salineimplants placed below the muscle. I removed her implants, performing a complete capsulectomy on each side. A simultaneous mastopexy was also performed. This also treated her capsular contracture on each side.
Patient 29
Description:
This patient underwent breast augmentation in 2006 with 225cc smooth, round, silicone breast implants placed below the muscle. I performed a complete en bloc removal of her breast implants and capsules and also performed a bilateral mastopexy. This was also successful in treating her significant breast asymmetry.
Patient 30
Description:
This patient underwent breast augmentation surgery with placement of Mentor brand 330cc smooth , round saline implants placed below the muscle in 2007. I removed her implants, performing a complete en bloc capsulectomy on each side. No mastopexy (breast lift) was necessary.
