Breast implant replacement: Plastic Surgery Royal✓

Breast Implant Replacement is a surgical procedure in which existing silicone or saline implants are removed and replaced with new ones, for medical, aesthetic, or personal reasons. While modern implants are durable and safe, they are not lifetime devices – it is recommended to replace them every 10 to 15 years, or earlier if there are complications or a desire to change the size, shape, or type of the implant.

Implant replacement can be a straightforward procedure, simply involving the technical exchange of the existing prostheses. However, it is often combined with additional procedures such as breast lift (mastopexy), correction of capsular contracture, repositioning of the implant (from subglandular to subpectoral), or addressing aesthetic irregularities that may have developed after the initial surgery.

The main reasons for implant replacement typically include:

• Physical damage to the implant (rupture, leakage),

• Capsular contracture (thickening of tissue around the implant),

• Aesthetic changes (changes in breast appearance over the years),

• Desire for larger or smaller implants,

• Changes in the position or symmetry of the breasts.

The procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia, takes between 1 to 2 hours, and the recovery time is often faster than with the initial augmentation. Most patients return to daily activities within 5 to 10 days, while physical activities are recommended only after several weeks.
