THE PROCEDURE
What is breast implant removal surgery?
Breast implant removal is a surgical procedure that removes existing breast implants, either for medical reasons, implant-related concerns, or personal preference. Depending on your goals, the procedure may be performed on its own or combined with a breast lift to restore a more natural breast shape and contour.
Unlike breast augmentation, breast implant removal focuses on safely removing the implants while achieving the best possible cosmetic outcome. It may be recommended for patients experiencing complications such as capsular contracture or implant rupture, or for those who simply no longer wish to have implants.
At Revitalize in Turkey, every breast implant removal procedure is tailored to your individual anatomy, medical history, and desired outcome. Our experienced plastic surgeons use advanced surgical techniques to achieve natural-looking results while prioritising safety, combining expert care with the exceptional value and hospitality that have made Turkey a leading destination for cosmetic surgery.

SUITABILITY
Are you a candidate for breast implants removal?
A breast implant removal procedure may be right for you if you:
Would like to remove your existing breast implants for personal or medical reasons
Are experiencing implant-related concerns, such as capsular contracture, rupture, discomfort, or implant displacement
Prefer to return to a more natural breast appearance without implants
Are considering combining implant removal with a breast lift to improve breast shape after removal
Are in good general health and a non-smoker, or able to stop smoking before surgery
Have realistic expectations about the results and recovery
Candidacy is always confirmed after a medical review of your medical history, current implants, photos, and goals. If implant removal alone is unlikely to achieve your desired result, we’ll honestly recommend combining it with a breast lift or another appropriate procedure based on your anatomy.

RECOVERY
Breast implant removal recovery timeline
Days 1–3: Rest with your upper body slightly elevated to help reduce swelling and discomfort. Mild swelling, bruising, and tightness are expected during this period, and your dressings and any drains (if used) will be monitored by our nursing team. You’ll also be advised to wear a supportive surgical bra continuously.
Days 4–7: If drains have been placed, they are usually removed during this period. You’ll gradually become more comfortable carrying out light daily activities while continuing to wear your surgical bra. Most patients are able to fly home after 5–7 days, subject to their surgeon’s approval.
Weeks 2–6: Swelling continues to improve, and your breasts gradually settle into their new shape following implant removal. You can progressively return to normal daily activities, but heavy lifting, upper body workouts, and strenuous exercise should be avoided until your surgeon confirms it is safe to resume them.
Months 3–6: Your breasts continue to soften and adapt to their natural contours as healing progresses, with any remaining swelling gradually resolving. If a breast lift has been performed alongside implant removal, the final shape will continue to improve throughout this period. Maintaining a stable weight and following your surgeon’s aftercare advice will help support long-lasting results.
SAFETY FIRST
Risks & safety
A breast implant removal procedure is a well-established surgery, but like any operation, it carries potential risks, which we discuss openly during your consultation. These can include swelling, bruising, temporary numbness, fluid collection (seroma), delayed wound healing, changes in nipple or breast sensation, scarring, asymmetry, and — more rarely — bleeding, infection, blood clots, or the need for further corrective procedures, particularly if significant skin laxity remains after implant removal.
We minimise these risks by performing a comprehensive pre-operative health assessment, carefully evaluating your existing implants and breast tissue, using meticulous surgical techniques, and providing structured aftercare with 24/7 access to our medical team throughout your stay. Your surgeon will explain your individual risk profile in detail and provide personalised guidance to support a safe recovery.

ANSWERS
Frequently asked questions
What is breast implant removal?
Breast implant removal is a surgical procedure that removes existing breast implants. Patients may choose the procedure for medical reasons, implant-related complications, or simply because they no longer wish to have implants.
Why do people choose to have their breast implants removed?
Common reasons include capsular contracture, implant rupture, discomfort, changes in aesthetic preferences, concerns about ageing implants, or a desire to return to a more natural breast appearance.
Will my breasts look the same after the implants are removed?
Not always. The appearance of your breasts after implant removal depends on factors such as your natural breast tissue, skin elasticity, implant size, and how long you have had the implants. Some patients are happy with implant removal alone, while others benefit from combining the procedure with a breast lift.
Do I need a breast lift after implant removal?
Not everyone does. If your skin has stretched or your breasts have lost firmness, your surgeon may recommend a breast lift to improve breast shape and position after the implants are removed.
What happens to the capsule around the implant?
Depending on your individual case, your surgeon may leave the capsule in place, partially remove it, or perform a complete capsulectomy. The most appropriate approach will depend on your symptoms, implant condition, and medical history.
Can ruptured breast implants be removed?
Yes. Ruptured implants can be safely removed, and your surgeon will assess whether any surrounding scar tissue should also be removed as part of the procedure.
How long does recovery take?
Most patients can return to light daily activities within the first week and fly home after 5–7 days, subject to their surgeon's approval. Swelling continues to improve over several weeks, with final results becoming visible over the following months.
Can I replace my implants at a later date?
Yes. If you decide in the future that you would like breast implants again, implant replacement surgery can usually be performed, depending on your anatomy and overall breast health.
Will I lose breast sensation?
Temporary changes in breast or nipple sensation are possible after surgery. While sensation often improves as healing progresses, some changes may be long-lasting depending on the procedure and your individual healing.
