What Is Breast Implant Removal?
Breast implant removal surgery (also known as explant surgery) is a procedure that removes breast implants from a previous augmentation. In some cases, the capsule of scar tissue that forms around the implant is also removed.
Dr. Mani offers several options for breast implant removal, including:
- En Bloc Removal: The implant and capsule are removed together as one unit, often preferred when there are concerns about rupture, leakage, or BII.
- Total Capsulectomy: The entire capsule is removed, though not necessarily in one piece.
- Simple Explant: Just the implants are removed, typically for patients with minimal capsular formation or no symptoms.
Dr. Mani will recommend the safest and most appropriate method based on your anatomy, goals, and any existing symptoms or complications.
Benefits of Breast Implant Removal:
- Relief from discomfort, tightness, or implant-related pain
- Addressing health concerns related to Breast Implant Illness
- Return to natural breast shape and feel
- Peace of mind after implant rupture or complications
- Improved posture and reduced strain on chest muscles or shoulders
- Ability to reassess your aesthetics without the maintenance of implants

How Does the Procedure Work?
Breast implant removal is performed under general anesthesia at Dr. Mani’s private AAAHC-accredited surgical center. Depending on the technique, surgery may take one to three hours. After carefully planning the incisions, Dr. Mani removes the implants using the agreed-upon method. If a total or en bloc capsulectomy is performed, he meticulously separates the capsule from surrounding tissue. For patients concerned about aesthetic outcomes post-removal, a breast lift may be performed simultaneously to reshape and elevate the breast tissue. Dr. Mani places strong emphasis on safe technique, minimal trauma, and a clean surgical field to support healing and long-term comfort.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Breast Implant Removal?
You may be a candidate for explant surgery if:
- You are experiencing discomfort, pain, or capsular contracture
- You suspect implant rupture or have confirmed leakage
- You’re concerned about Breast Implant Illness or systemic symptoms
- You no longer desire implants due to lifestyle or aesthetic changes
- You are in good health and have realistic expectations for the results
During your consultation, Dr. Mani will review your symptoms, medical history, and aesthetic goals to help you determine the right approach for removal and possible breast reshaping.
What to Expect Before, During, and After Surgery
Every procedure begins with a personalized consultation. Dr. Mani will review your medical history, implant type, and any prior surgeries. He uses a full-length mirror to evaluate your natural tissue and help you understand the changes that may follow removal. Your comfort and understanding are top priorities throughout the planning process.
On the day of surgery, you’ll be welcomed to Dr. Mani’s private surgical suite, where his team will prep you for surgery. He meets with you beforehand to answer questions and mark your surgical sites.
After surgery, you’ll recover in a monitored setting. You will be discharged the same day, and Dr. Mani will follow up with a personal call and in-office visit the next day. You’ll receive detailed recovery instructions and his personal number to call with any concerns.
Breast Implant Removal Recovery and Results
Initial recovery typically takes about 1-2 weeks. You may experience swelling, tightness, and soreness, especially if a capsulectomy or breast lift is included. Pain is usually manageable with prescribed medication. Most patients can return to normal light activity within a few days and resume more strenuous activities in 4 to 6 weeks. Breasts will continue to settle and reshape in the months following removal. If desired, Dr. Mani can perform a lift or fat transfer at the time of explant to enhance post-removal contour.
Once implants are removed, many patients enjoy the simplicity and peace of mind that comes with a natural chest. While no ongoing maintenance is required, skin quality and volume loss may be addressed through non-surgical or surgical means later on. Dr. Mani can recommend treatments such as fat transfer or skin tightening options if desired.
