When to consider breast implant removal in Dubai?
Here are some reasons why women voluntarily choose breast implant removal surgery in Dubai.
- Breast asymmetry
- Dissatisfied with implant volume
- Breast implant rupture
- Calcium deposits around the implant
- Pain and discomfort due to “capsular contracture”
- Implant malposition
Typically, implant removal involves replacing old breast implants with new implants in the same procedure. Occasionally, a patient may opt to not have any implants at all, in which case, the surgeon may perform a breast lift at the same time to reduce the breast volume, which will involve additional scars.
Breast implant removal/exchange process
Implant removal surgery is well planned in advance. The surgeon will obtain pictures of the breasts, previous implant information, and the current expectation of clients for the implant removal or exchange process.
The surgery takes place under anaesthesia. Depending upon individual breast anatomy, a tailored breast implant exchange surgery is performed.
If you have recently had breast implant surgery and are not satisfied with the results, the surgeon can replace the breast implant through the same incision scar on the breasts.
In some cases, when the implants rupture or displace, the surgeon will have to make a larger incision to empty complete breast implant pockets. Usually, this surgery takes longer than usual implant removal or breast implant exchange surgery.
If the client wants to increase the implant’s size, a bigger implant can be inserted in place. However, if new implants are significantly smaller, the surgeon has to perform mastopexy to adjust excess hanging breast skin and tissues and implant exchange surgery in Dubai.
Things to remember after implant removal
- Implant removal is done via surgery and therefore requires proper aftercare to heal incisions.
- Before discharge, your surgeon will instruct you on how to shower and general post-op care.
- Depending on the surgery’s complications, the incisions will heal. You have to take ample rest in the first week of surgery and wear a surgical bra according to the surgeon’s instructions.
- Also, you must avoid fast-paced activities like running, Zumba, aerobics etc., that cause breast movements.
