What Is Breast Implant Removal?
Breast implant removal, also known as breast explant surgery, is a procedure designed to safely remove breast implants from a previous breast augmentation. Many women choose this procedure to:
- Address changes in aesthetic preference
- Replace or upgrade older implants
- Resolve implant complications such as rupture, capsular contracture, or discomfort
- Restore a more natural breast contour
Depending on your anatomy and goals, Dr. Polavarapu may recommend implant removal with a breast lift to restore shape and firmness after explantation.
Some patients want to remove saline implants or silicone implants and avoid further augmentation. Others want explant surgery as part of a broader plan that may include implant exchange or breast revision to improve comfort, symmetry, or shape.

I highly recommend Dr. Poloavarupa! She is very patient focused and is focused on ensuring her patients get the right treatment to address their needs even when that is not surgery in her office. She takes the time needed with each patient, and made me feel cared for through a challenging medical situation.
She did not perform my initial surgery and I came to her office to request she remove my implants. She was very thorough in evaluating my previous medical records to ensure she had the right information to make a good decision on the treatment plan.
After determining that surgery may worsen my pain, she referred me to a physical therapist and later a pain doctor. She was highly invested in making sure I got the treatment I need, and followed up with the pain doctor as well as me to make sure I was getting better. She has not performed any surgery on me, as it is not appropriate for my situation.
I am very pleased with Dr Poloavarupa’s care and attention as well as her staff. I highly recommend consulting her for any plastic surgery considerations!

Recovery and Results
Following breast implant removal, most patients experience minimal downtime. Swelling and tenderness typically subside within a few weeks. Full results are visible as your tissue adjusts naturally to the new contour.
Most patients are able to return to light daily activities within one to two weeks, with more strenuous exercise typically resumed after four to six weeks based on Dr. Polavarapu's guidance. You will receive detailed post-operative instructions during your consultation, and our team is available throughout your recovery to answer any questions.
Dr. Polavarapu’s emphasis on precision and gentle technique promotes smooth healing and beautifully balanced results.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Breast Implant Removal?

- Are experiencing complications such as capsular contracture, implant rupture, or chronic discomfort.
- Have saline or silicone implants that are aging or due for evaluation.
