Breast Implant Removal in Austin, TX

Sometimes, after undergoing breast augmentation to improve the size and contour of the breasts, some women may decide to have them taken out for a number of reasons. At Beleza Surgery in Cedar Park, TX, where we house an accredited OR, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Staci Hix-Hernandez consults with women who wish to remove their breast implants. In some cases, a breast lift might be needed following implant removal based upon the size and type of the implants, as well as how much the skin has stretched. A lift can typically help to minimize sagging or excess skin that could remain after implant removal. If you are attempting to return to your previous breast size, breast implant removal surgery along with a breast lift may produce amazing results to get back the natural appearance and feel of your breasts.

During your breast implant removal procedure at Beleza Surgery in Cedar Park, TX, your implants will be taken out and scar tissue might also need to be eliminated. Scar tissue is typical after a breast augmentation and will need to be removed if it's affecting the form of the breast or causing discomfort. After the implants have been taken out, Dr. Hix-Hernandez may conduct a breast lift, fat transfer, or both, depending on what was discussed during your consultation. Additionally, there are several choices to restore volume following an implant removal to enhance the shape of your breast. The recovery time will vary for every individual, depending on the repair needed after the implant removal. After the process, Dr. Hix-Hernandez will deliver post-procedure directions and may suggest treatments to help reduce scarring. For the first 2 – 3 weeks, patients will experience swelling and bruising and should restrict strenuous exercise until otherwise permitted. But, patients are encouraged to stand and gradually move around since it will help with blood circulation. Optimal results can normally be observed about 4 – 6 months after the procedure.

Numerous factors could cause you to be unhappy with your existing breast implants. Whether they are the wrong texture, shape, or size, Beleza Surgery can help you get the look you want with breast implant removal. At a consult, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Staci Hix-Hernandez will talk with you about your choices to restore the appearance and feel of your breasts.
