Breast implant removal in Turkey, Prices of Istanbul Clinics 2025

What is breast implant removal surgery?

The purpose of breast implant removal surgery is to remove breast implants from patients who have had breast augmentation or reconstruction.

Breast implants are not permanent, and it is recommended that they be replaced or removed every 10–15 years. This decision is usually made based on the needs and desires of the patient.

Your plastic surgeon might suggest having your breast implants removed if you've experienced issues with them, such as capsular contracture.

Other reasons for breast implant removal include:

• Infection and/or excessive bleeding.
• Accumulation of calcium.
• Development of necrotic tissues around the breast implant

What happens before this procedure?

Breast implant removal normally lasts 1 to 3 hours and is performed under general anesthesia. You might be able to leave the hospital the same day as your operation, depending on how quickly you recover. You might have to:

• Make changes to your current medications or start taking new ones.
• Medications that raise the risk of bleeding should be avoided. For example, Anti-inflammatory medications and herbal supplements, 
• Tobacco products and smoking should be avoided.

What happens during this procedure?

The three most typical techniques for removing breast implants are as follows:

Breast implant removal only

The removal incisions are made in the same area as the original breast implant surgery. In cases of capsular contracture, the firm capsules are removed to facilitate a faster recovery.

Breast implant removal with lifting

If your breast skin is stretched or sagging after breast implant removal, your plastic surgeon may choose to perform a simultaneous breast lift. During this procedure, excess breast skin is removed and the breast tissue is tightened to provide better support. In addition, in certain cases, your plastic surgeon may adjust the size of your natural breasts to better match the new contours.

Deflation case

Your plastic surgeon may decide to deflate your saline breast implants without surgery; this can be done in their office while you are under local anesthetic. Depending on the outcome of this procedure, you might need additional surgery, such as a breast lift or implant replacement.

What happens after this procedure?

Following surgery, you will be given special recovery instructions. Your nurse tells you:

• What to do if your incisions aren't healing properly.
• Restriction of activities.
• What medications should you take?
• When should you see your plastic surgeon again?

You can minimize swelling by using a special support bra or compression garment for a few weeks. Small tubes called drains may also be inserted under your skin. These tubes guarantee that any extra fluid or blood is removed. These drains normally come out after a few days, although they can persist in place for up to ten days.

What kind of results can you expect?

When the implants are removed, your breasts will initially appear deflated. The shape and condition of your breasts after implantation are determined based on different conditions. Among these conditions, we note; the size of your breasts before augmentation, the size of the implants, and what kind of changes your body has gone through during the time you've had them.
