Feel confident and comfortable with breast implant removal

Amelia {location} specializes in {procedure}.

Breast implant removal, often referred to as explant surgery, is a procedure designed to remove existing breast implants. Whether you are addressing complications or simply wish to achieve a different aesthetic, plastic surgeon Dr. Shabaaz Sandhu of Amelia Tampa Bay is here to provide expert and compassionate care.

This procedure can also include the option of an en-bloc capsulectomy, where the surrounding scar tissue capsule is removed alongside the implants, ensuring a thorough and effective solution.

At Amelia Tampa Bay, Dr. Sandhu focuses on personalized care tailored to your specific needs and aesthetic goals. After the procedure, many patients find they can return to non-strenuous work within just a few days, with a full recovery typically taking around six weeks. 

You will likely notice an immediate change in the shape and feel of your breasts, with results continuing to improve as any post-surgical swelling subsides.

Breast implant removal in Tampa Bay, FL, is suitable for individuals who no longer wish to maintain their implants, are experiencing complications, or are considering alternative options. Dr. Sandhu and his dedicated team will guide you through every step of the process, ensuring you feel confident and comfortable with your decisions.

What do {procedure} scars look like?

Breast Implant Removal Scar

Breast implant removal is commonly performed through the original crease (inframammary) incision, minimizing additional scarring. This approach allows for precise access to the implant while keeping the scar discreetly hidden in the natural fold beneath the breast.

{procedure} Recovery Timeline

  • Recovery and aesthetic results change drastically depending upon which version of the surgery is selected.
  • Day of Surgery
    Simple removal can be done awake and has almost zero recovery.
  • 7-10 Days
    A full en-bloc capsulectomy requires more restrictions and recovery, though this varies dramatically based on the specifics of your operation.
  • 0-2 Weeks
    Your surgeon will help you know what you can do during recovery but most activities can be resumed fairly quickly unless another procedure is done at the same time or you elect an en-bloc capsulectomy.
  • Results
    Results evolve depending upon which version of the surgery you have and whether or not you have an additional procedure like implant exchange or a lift. The results can appear very quickly, like with implant exchange or simple removal, or over months with a complex exchange, a lift or an en bloc capsulectomy.
