Breast Implant Removal

Ruptured Implant Removal

This patient had subglandular (on top of the muscle) silicone implants placed over 35 years ago. They were noted to be ruptured on recent mammogram. She underwent removal of the ruptured implants including any silicone granulomas (scar tissue around loose silicone in the breast) through incisions hidden in her breast folds. She did not desire replacement nor breast lift.
