Breast Implant Removal in Bakersfield, Fresno, and Stockton
If you're considering breast implant removal or have concerns about your current implants, you're not alone. Recently, there has been growing awareness surrounding breast implant safety, including potential issues like Breast Implant Illness (BII) and the Allergan textured implant recall linked to BIA-ALCL (Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma). At Beautologie, we understand that you may have questions about your implants and their safety.
Understanding the Concerns Around Breast Implants
Over the years, breast implants have been a popular choice for individuals seeking to enhance their appearance. However, recent concerns about implant safety have raised important questions. BII is a condition some women report experiencing after breast augmentation, which can include a range of symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, and memory issues. Additionally, the recent recall of Allergan’s textured implants has highlighted the potential risks of developing BIA-ALCL, a rare but serious form of cancer linked to textured implants.
At Beautologie, we believe that you deserve to be fully informed about the risks and benefits of any procedure. If you're experiencing symptoms that may be related to your implants, or if you're concerned about the safety of your implants due to the Allergan recall or other factors, we encourage you to schedule a consultation.

FAQ
There are several reasons why a person may want to have their breast implants removed, including complications such as implant rupture or leakage, capsular contracture, dissatisfaction with the results, changes in personal preference, and concerns about long-term health risks.
Breast implant removal is typically performed under general anesthesia, and the surgeon will make an incision in the same location as the original breast augmentation incision. The implant is removed, and any scar tissue around the implant (capsule) may also be removed. The incision is then closed with sutures.
Scarring is a common side effect of any surgical procedure, including breast implant removal. However, the amount of scarring can vary depending on the individual and the surgical technique used. Your surgeon can provide you with information on what to expect in terms of scarring.
The amount of breast size increase can vary depending on the individual and the amount of fat available for transfer. On average, patients can expect an increase of one to two cup sizes.
Depending on the size of the implants and the length of time they were in place, breast tissue may be stretched or compressed. After implant removal, it may take some time for the breast tissue to readjust and return to its natural shape.
Yes, it is possible to have new breast implants inserted after implant removal. This can be done during the same surgical procedure or at a later time.
The recovery process can vary depending on the individual and the surgical technique used. However, most people can expect some discomfort, swelling, and bruising in the days following surgery. It is important to follow your surgeon's post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
