In some cases breast implants can be removed in a procedure known as “percutaneous implant deflation”. This method is only an option for those who have saline breast implants. This method involves the intentional puncture and drainage of the implant contents. The implant can then be removed through a smaller incision resulting in minimal scar tissue and less down time.
The recovery time after breast implant removal is very similar to the recovery time of the initial breast enhancement surgery. Typically, you should expect at least one week to recover meaning that you will be out of work. Any strenuous activities will be postponed for at least three to four weeks.
