What is Explant with Breast Lift?

An explant with breast lift is a surgery that pairs the removal of breast implants (explant) with a breast lift (mastopexy) to bring the breasts back to their natural shape and position. This procedure is ideal for women who have chosen to remove their implants, either due to personal preference or medical reasons and want to maintain a youthful, lifted appearance. During the procedure, the surgeon removes the implants and excess skin, reshaping the breast tissue and repositioning the nipples to create a more natural and aesthetically pleasing contour. This approach helps to address sagging and volume loss that can occur after explantation, ensuring a harmonious and balanced result.

What are the Benefits of this Procedure?

An explant with breast lift offers both aesthetic and emotional benefits, providing a renewed sense of confidence and satisfaction with your body.
