Detailed Overview of Our Services

Initial Consultation: Patients begin their journey with a comprehensive consultation that addresses all questions and concerns. Dr. Ball will conduct a thorough examination, discuss your breast surgery history, current breast health, and explore the reasons behind your decision for implant removal, offering valuable information about the procedure. Patients will receive their customized quote on surgical costs at the end of the consultation from our Practice Manager.

Breast Implant Removal Techniques

– Total Capsulectomy: Ideal for patients concerned about silicone leakage or other complications; this involves  removing the implant and surrounding capsule (scar tissue) as one unit, based on individual circumstances.

– Partial Capsulectomy: Suitable for cases without severe complications, involving the removal of part of the capsule (scar tissue).

Reconstructive Options 

With implant removal, patients might opt for additional procedures to improve the aesthetics of their breasts, such as:

• Breast Lift (Mastopexy): Raises and firms the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue, often necessary after implant removal to refine the breast shape and position.

• Fat Grafting: Enhances breast contours and volume using the patient’s own fat, typically taken from areas like the abdomen or thighs, offering a natural filler option.

• Risks and Recovery: Dr. Ball ensures all patients are well-informed about potential risks such as scarring, infection, or changes in breast and nipple sensation. The incision location and type are chosen to minimize visible scarring and optimize healing. Detailed care instructions and close post-operative monitoring are provided to support a smooth recovery. Most patients require two weeks off work with no lifting, pushing or pulling over 10 lbs for 4-6 weeks following surgery.
  
  

Why Consider Breast Implant Removal?

Health and Comfort: Issues like capsular contracture or implant rupture can cause significant discomfort or health concerns, making removal a necessary step.

Aesthetic Changes: Personal preference changes or lifestyle shifts often prompt the removal of implants. Dr. Ball focuses on achieving a breast size and shape that is harmoniously balanced with the patient’s overall body proportions and age.

Physical and Psychological Relief: Removing implants can relieve back pain and physical restrictions while also alleviating the psychological distress associated with dissatisfaction from previous augmentations.
