How We Can Help YOU
If your implants no longer feel right, we’re here to help create a plan that works for you.
Implant Removal
Implants can be removed due to personal or medical reasons. If needed, we can also remove scar tissue during the same procedure (capsulectomy).
Implant Revision
Replace your implants with a new size, shape, or type. If you still want implants, we’ll help you choose the right ones for your body, goals, and comfort.
Lift & Reshaping
Lift or reshape the breast after removal or exchange. A lift can restore support and contour, with other revision options available to suit your goals.
Whether you want to remove your implants, explore an exchange, or opt for further revision, we are here to help.

Breast Implant Concerns
There are many reasons women choose to remove their breast implants whether for health, comfort, or peace of mind. Here are some of the most common:
Types of Breast Explant Techniques
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to implant removal. The best technique depends on your implant type, symptoms, and surgical goals.
Standard Implant Removal
The implant is removed, but the surrounding scar tissue (capsule) is typically left in place.
En Bloc Removal
The implant and capsule are removed together as one unit, often chosen for health or safety concerns.
Total Capsulectomy
Both the implant and the entire capsule are removed, though not always in one single piece.
Partial Capsulectomy
Only part of the capsule is removed along with the implant, based on your needs and anatomy.
Implant Revision & More!
Whether you’re looking to lift, reshape, or replace your implants, we’re here to help you choose the option that feels right for you.
Breast Implant Exchange
The existing implants are removed and replaced with new ones that better suit your current preferences.
Removal & Breast Lift
This surgery combines implant removal with a lift to improve shape, firmness, and overall breast position.
Removal & Fat Transfer
Fat is removed from another area of your body and added to the breast for soft, natural-looking volume.
How Much Does Surgery Cost?
If you’re exploring your options for breast revision surgery, here’s how implant removal, exchange, and lift procedures compare in terms of complexity and cost.
Implant Removal
$
Implant removal is a straightforward procedure where your breast implants are taken out without replacing them. It’s typically the least expensive option and may or may not include removing the surrounding scar tissue (capsule).
Implant Exchange
$$
Implant exchange involves removing your old implants and replacing them with new ones often to update the size, shape, or type. This procedure is more involved and tailored to achieve a refreshed, balanced result.
Implant & Lift
$$$
This surgery removes your implants and reshapes your natural breast tissue by lifting and tightening the skin. It’s a more comprehensive procedure that offers a more natural look with or without implants.
