Breast Implant Removal and Lift with Fat Grafting, Raleigh, NC

What are the main reasons that women choose to have breast implants removed? The primary ones are that breasts are now too large, implant problems like rupture or capsular contracture, fear of breast implant illness and breast drooping (ptosis) with age. This 57-year-old woman had breast implants about 21 years ago. They were saline implants and then later changed to silicone gel breast implants because of palpability. Over the years she gained some weight and it felt like her breast got larger and she was never happy with her implants in the first place. She had developed some drooping and understood that when the implants were removed, she would develop even more breast ptosis. She still wanted to maintain a reasonable size of her breast. She underwent explantation of her 350 cc silicone gel breast implants with a breast lift and fat grafting by Dr. Glenn Lyle. She had liposuction of her abdomen and hips and a relatively small amount of fat grafting,-- about 100 cc per breast. She is very happy with her smaller perkier breasts and was very pleased to have her implants removed and not have to worry about them anymore.
