What is Breast Implant Removal Surgery?
Breast implant removal surgery, medically referred to as explant surgery, involves the surgical removal of breast implants from a previous breast augmentation procedure. This operation can either be a straightforward removal of the implants or may include additional procedures such as capsulectomy, where the scar tissue or capsule around the implant is also removed.
In some cases, a breast lift (mastopexy) is performed simultaneously to address sagging and ensure the breasts maintain a natural and aesthetically pleasing shape post-removal. The primary aim of this surgery is to address and resolve any complications arising from breast implants, adjust to the patient’s changing aesthetic preferences, or eliminate potential health risks associated with implants.
Who is the Ideal Candidate for Breast Implant Removal Surgery?
Ideal candidates for breast implant removal are those experiencing physical discomfort, health issues potentially linked to their implants, or dissatisfaction with the appearance of their augmented breasts. Individuals who no longer feel their implants reflect their current lifestyle or personal identity may also seek removal. It’s essential for candidates to be in good overall health, have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the surgery, and understand the potential need for additional procedures to achieve desired aesthetic results.
Benefits of Breast Implant Removal Surgery
- Reduces or eliminates back, neck, and shoulder pain attributed to the weight of implants.
- Some find that removal makes physical activity more comfortable, increasing their range of motion and easing participation in sports or exercise.
- Potential alleviation of symptoms associated with breast implant illness (BII) and mitigation of complications such as capsular contracture.
- Eliminates concerns related to the long-term effects of having implants, such as the risk of rupture over time.
- Allows individuals to revert to their natural breast size or adjust their breast appearance as their aesthetic preferences evolve.

Frequently Asked Questions
Helping with answers to make you feel at ease
What to Expect Before Getting Breast Implant Removal Surgery?
Before undergoing breast implant removal, you’ll have a consultation with your surgeon to discuss your medical history, the reasons for removal, and your desired outcomes. This discussion may include evaluating the condition of your implants, such as their position, any complications, and overall breast health. Pre-operative tests, including imaging studies like mammograms or MRIs, may be recommended. Your surgeon will also explain the procedure, and potential additional surgeries like a breast lift, and provide detailed pre-operative instructions.
What to Expect During Breast Implant Removal Surgery?
Breast implant removal is typically performed under general anesthesia and can take one to several hours, depending on the complexity of the procedure and whether additional surgeries are performed concurrently. The surgeon often uses the original incision sites to remove the implants and minimize additional scarring. If a capsulectomy or breast lift is necessary, these are usually done during the same operation. The goal is to safely remove the implants, address any issues such as scar tissue, and reshape the breast tissue to ensure a natural appearance post-surgery.
What to Expect After Breast Implant Removal Surgery?
Post-surgery, patients may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medication. Recovery time varies; many can resume light activities within a week, but full physical recovery may take several weeks. It’s important to follow your surgeon’s aftercare instructions, including wearing a support garment and attending follow-up appointments. The final shape of your breasts will gradually emerge as the swelling subsides.
Are There Any Side Effects of Breast Implant Removal Surgery?
Like all surgical procedures, breast implant removal comes with potential side effects, including infection, bleeding, and changes in breast sensation. There’s also the possibility of dissatisfaction with the cosmetic outcome, particularly concerning breast sagging or asymmetry. Discussing these risks with your surgeon beforehand can help set realistic expectations.
What is the Cost of Breast Implant Removal Surgery in Dubai?
The cost of breast implant removal surgery in Dubai can vary widely depending on several factors, including the complexity of the surgery, whether additional procedures such as a breast lift are required, the surgeon’s experience, and the facility where the surgery is performed. Generally, prices can range significantly, reflecting the personalized nature of the surgery and the high standards of medical care in Dubai.

I've been coming to The Nova Clinic Al Wasl Branch for laser hair removal and really happy with the results I'm getting. Shoutout to Dr. Saima, she's so sweet, very detailed and professional when it comes to explaining the procedures and whats best for me, and a shoutout to her nurse Rachel too. The only thing is that sometimes it's quite difficult to change or book appointments if I want to book something soon, which makes me have to wait a long time. However overall, I would definitely recommend this clinic to others!

Over all a great experience and I would definitely recommend Jessica and the Nova Clinic.

It was my first time at the Nova clinic and I was pleasantly impressed. A very beautiful, spacious and clean place with excellent service and professional specialists. I came for a procedure with cosmetologist Natalya and she selected a treatment for me based on my skin type and according to my recommendations, we did peeling and lifting of the lower part of the face, everything went as comfortable and pleasant as possible) After the procedure, my face was shining and looked very fresh, and after a few days I began to receive a million compliments that I began to look much better and that something had changed noticeably, this cannot please me either when in the morning I saw an even tone and a toned face. In general, I am very pleased and recommend Natalia as a specialist in caring for your face.

I did an enzyme facial last week at NOVA clinic, It was amazing,Christine was amazing and very gentle and the atmosphere of the room is very relaxing. The facial was kind of uncomfortable because it stings BUT after the results of the facial after 2 days i forgot about the unpleasant itches during the facial. Everyone told me im glowing which is why im going to do the facial again very soon! Plus it seemed like it reduced visible fine lines/wrinkles. I highly recommend this facial and clinic, as it's very clean and welcoming.

I recently had my brows shaped by Lana Tarek, a well known brow aesthetician. I am so impressed by her work. She is very meticulous in what she does, she will analyse your face and create a shape which will suit you best. My mother also does micoblading there and the results are amazing.. She creates really natural, beautiful brows. I highly recommend her!
