Am I A Good Candidate for Breast Implant Removal?
Breast implant removal can correct a variety of issues you might experience after breast augmentation, from complications like capsular contracture to simply being unhappy with the look or feel. In some cases, you might simply want to return to your natural size. Whatever the reason, breast implant removal can operate to counteract the outcomes of breast augmentation surgery and, if coupled with a breast lift, can restore a natural, desirable aesthetic look. Before your surgery, Dr. McNally will learn more about the final look you want to achieve and discuss your options for creating it.
What Can I Expect During My Breast Implant Removal Surgery?
First, an incision will be made, most likely in the same place where the original incision was made for your breast augmentation. This will allow access to the breast capsule, or the pocket containing the implant and surrounding scar tissue. In cases where the scar tissue has thickened enough to affect the shape of the breast (a condition called capsular contracture), Dr. McNally may need to remove this, as well as the implant. Due to the sudden loss in volume, it is very common to complement breast implant removal with additional procedures to help shape or fill out the breasts, including a breast lift or fat transfer. These additional surgeries may be done at the same time as the implant removal or at a later date. During your initial consultation at The Oregon Clinic or Réviance, we'll talk about your aesthetic wishes and make a treatment plan. Call one of our locations in Portland, OR to schedule a consultation to discuss breast implant removal.
Breast Implant Removal Reviews
I just explanted with Dr. McNally. I really wanted to have an en bloc capsulectomy done and it was very important to me to pick the right surgeon for this. Although Dr. McNally could not promise he could do this and would only do this if this did not put me at risk, which I greatly appreciate that. He was very successful in doing the en bloc capsulectomy along with a lift. I could not be happier with the results. I highly recommend Dr. McNally. He is very skilled and caring.

What to Expect Following Breast Implant Revision
The recovery period will vary for each individual depending upon the reconstruction needed after the procedure. After the process, Dr. McNally will provide post-procedure directions and may suggest additional treatments to help eliminate scarring. For the first few weeks, patients will experience bruising and swelling and must restrict strenuous exercise until otherwise permitted. However, patients are invited to get up and gradually move around as it will help with blood circulation. Optimal results can normally be observed approximately 4 – 6 months following the procedure.
