What is Breast Implant Replacement?

Over time, breast implants may need replacement because of natural aging, lifestyle changes, or implant-related issues. Common reasons for replacement include:

  • Desire for a different size or shape
  • Implant rupture or leakage
  • Capsular contracture (scar tissue around the implant)
  • Implant shifting or asymmetry
  • Upgrading to newer, safer implant models

The goal of implant replacement is to improve aesthetics while maintaining or enhancing breast health and harmony.

How is Breast Implant Replacement Performed?

The surgery typically involves:

Consultation & Planning: Discussion of patient goals and implant options.

Anesthesia: Usually performed under general anesthesia.

Incision: Surgeons often use the same incision site as the original surgery.

Implant Removal & Replacement: Old implants are removed, and new ones are inserted.

Closing Incisions & Recovery:  Sutures are applied, and recovery begins.

The procedure usually takes 1–2 hours, and most patients can go home the same day.

Advantages of Breast Implant Replacement

  • Refreshes and improves the appearance of breasts
  • Addresses complications such as rupture or contracture
  • Allows adjustment of implant size, shape, or type
  • Utilizes advanced and safer implant technology
  • Restores comfort, symmetry, and natural results

Recovery After Breast Implant Replacement

Recovery is generally quicker than the first breast augmentation surgery. Patients can usually resume light activities within a week. Recommendations include:

  • Wearing a supportive surgical bra
  • Avoiding heavy lifting or strenuous exercise for 4–6 weeks
  • Following prescribed aftercare and attending follow-up appointments

Final results are typically visible after swelling subsides, around 6–8 weeks post-surgery.

Risks and Considerations

While breast implant replacement is safe, possible risks include:

  • Temporary swelling and bruising
  • Pain or discomfort during recovery
  • Capsular contracture recurrence (rare)
  • Implant rupture in the future (rare)
  • Need for further revision in certain cases

At Badge Health, we use advanced surgical methods and high-quality implants to minimize risks and ensure patient satisfaction.
