Breast implant removal with lift is a common choice for patients who want to remove implants while restoring breast shape and firmness. This combined approach addresses both volume loss and sagging to create a natural, balanced result. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Eugene Kim provides breast revision to patients in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, Santa Monica, West Hollywood, CA, and surrounding communities.
Why Patients Choose Implant Removal With Lift
Patients pursue implant removal with lift for many reasons. Some no longer want implants, while others experience discomfort, capsular contracture, or changes in lifestyle or body goals.
Removing implants alone may leave excess skin or a deflated appearance. A lift reshapes the breast and repositions the nipple to restore a youthful contour.
What the Procedure Involves
During surgery, implants are removed and excess skin is excised. The breast tissue is reshaped, and the nipple and areola are repositioned to a more natural height.
The technique used depends on breast size, skin quality, and how long implants have been in place.
What Results Look Like After Surgery
After healing, breasts appear smaller than before implant removal but more lifted, firm, and proportional. Upper fullness is reduced, but overall shape is improved.
Results continue to refine over several months as swelling resolves and tissues settle.
Recovery and Healing
Recovery typically involves swelling, bruising, and soreness during the first few weeks. Most patients return to work within one to two weeks, depending on activity level.
Final results are long lasting when paired with stable weight and healthy habits.
