There are a variety of problems with artificial silicone bags and other breast implants and many of them are discovered when there is visible damage in the busts' feel and shape.

Depending on the symptoms, factors may include the duration of insertion, the type of implant, and the position of insertion. Most people choose to remove a breast implant because external treatments such as massages and treatments do not improve or stop the progression of symptoms.

Causes of breast implant damage may also include:
· Implant complications eg. rupture, folding, or deflation.
· Capsular contracture, tension bands asymmetry, displacement, infection, and leakage of silicone.
· Build-up of calcium

At our affiliated hospital, there are 2 types of treatment available for breast implant removal procedure:
· Breast implant removal
· Breast implant removal with partial / total capsulectomy

Capsulectomy is surgical removal of scar tissue or capsule that has become thickened and hardened around a breast implant. The capsule is a combination of fibroblasts, collagen, and blood vessels.

Q1: Will my breasts sag after the procedure?
A1: Fat injection can be performed at the same time as the removal procedure to prevent sagging. It is recommended that all treatments be completed in one day, as the shape of the bust will be beautifully finished.

Q2: How will the recovery look like?
A2: While it differs from person to person, recovery after breast implant removal surgery is usually smoother than the initial breast implant surgery.

Q3: What should I do to prepare for the surgery?
A3: Stop smoking to recover faster, and avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs, and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding.

Q4: Can I just leave my damaged implants in my breasts?
