The Facts About Breast Implant Removal

Leave a reply

 

Breast Implant Removal

The choice to have breast implant removal may be your own personal choice or the result of a medical need. Regardless of your reasons, there are many facts that you need to consider before you make a final decision.  You need to be aware of what you can be expect before and after surgery and how you will need to prepare yourself if you do decide to have the procedure.

Reasons why breast implants are removed?

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, approximately 20,000 breast implant removal surgeries are performed each year in the US.

In a few cases, women who undergo a removal procedure choose to do so simply because the current implants are no longer wanted.  This could be because a woman wants a different size, different or better placement, or just wants to be “natural” again.

More than half of breast implant that are removed are related to one of these problems which include an implant leaking or rupturing, collagen fibers growing around the implant causing pain, or the breast changing shape or size over time. Many of these medical reasons make implant removal a necessity because the implant has become dangerous to your body.

Some other reasons why a women seeks a breast implant removal procedure is:

  • The implant visibly ripped or wrinkled
  • The implant is hardening
  • You are having an allergic reaction to the implant
  • There is an uneven appearance
  • You have persistent pain following the allotted healing time

How are implants safely removed?

It is important to speak with your Las Vegas plastic surgeon Dr. Reynolds before choosing to have this surgery. You should discuss your expectations for the procedure, whether you would like new implants, and any other preoperative procedures that may apply.  There may be a need for blood work and imaging tests as well. Your surgeon will advise if there are any medicines or supplements you need to stop taking leading up to the procedure.

If you decide to undergo a breast implant removal surgery, the procedure is short. Your plastic surgeon will have you in and out within a couple of hours.  In only rare cases, you will have to stay overnight for observation.

Your surgeon will sedate you using intravenous sedation or general anesthesia. Your breast implants will then be removed using a small incision under the crease of the breast. If the breast has ruptured, extra care will be taken to prevent further health concerns.

Once the implants are removed, the skin may loosen. Further procedures may be needed to lift the breast and remove excess tissue if the patient isn’t getting new implants. This can be done at the same time or later depending on the patient’s preferences.

Recovery for a breast implant removal surgery is simple. You will be advised to wear compression bandages or a special bra that will help lessen the swelling. It is wise to avoid heavy lifting and extensive reaching for several weeks after the surgery.

If you find that breast implant removal surgery is an option you’d like to look into, please schedule a consultation with Las Vegas plastic surgeon Dr. Reynolds who has a vast knowledge base to address any questions you may have.

Plastic Surgery Trends of 2015

Leave a reply

Every year there are plastic surgery trends that surprise even the professionals and 2015 is no exception. Check out this quick break down of some popular plastic surgery trends in 2015 and why.

 #1| Botox

This non-invasive procedure topped our list of 2014 plastic surgery trends. In 2014, Botox topped the list as the most popular non-invasive treatment. Fine lines and wrinkles will always be the bane of existence for both men and women. We don’t see this trend falling out of the top trends any time soon.

#2 | Hand Lifts

The world of social media and selfies has helped hand lifts jump to the top of many people’s plastic surgery bucket lists. Ladies are lining up to perfect their digits before flashing that “he put a ring on it!” selfie across the web.

Of course, liposuction and breast augmentation remain the top most common procedures currently performed by plastic surgeons but cultural shifts and breakthroughs in science will tend to boost the popularity of some less well-known procedures.

Whether these procedures retain their popularity through 2015, the quest for personal perfection will not probably end. If you have your own idea of perfection in mind, contact an Board Certified  Plastic Surgeon at 702.410.9800 to schedule a consultation today.

Tighten Up your Face

Tighten up your face

As we get older, we start to lose the elasticity in our skin. The skin that is around the sides of your face can start to sag, your eyelids can droop or, if you smoke, you can get tiny lines all around your mouth. It is very hard for us to face the fact that we are getting older. We do not want to lose the look that we had when we were young and in our prime. If we can do something simple to help keep our beautiful appearance longer, then that is something that we are probably going to try to do. There are many solutions when it comes to getting your younger look back.

For starters, Botox injections and fillers can do wonders. Reynolds Plastic Surgery does a lot more than just breast augmentation procedures in Las Vegas. They do many other cosmetic procedures here that will help get you the desired look that you want. The great thing about going to Dr. Reynolds is that you can be confident that you are going to get a doctor that you know cares about you and the way that you want to look. Botox can be beneficial when it comes to tightening up your skin. They also use fillers to help fill in wrinkles that form around your eyes and mouth. By getting rid of the wrinkles and tightening up your skin, you will once again have that younger looking appearance you so desire to keep. If you want to have the appearance from when you were young, then contact Dr. Reynolds today at 702.410.9800 to schedule a consultation.
