What Is Breast Implant Exchange?
Breast implant exchange is a surgical procedure that replaces old implants with new ones, either to enhance appearance, adjust size or shape, or address medical concerns such as rupture or capsular contracture. It allows you to update your results and maintain natural balance over time.
How the Procedure Works
Existing implants are removed; the capsule may be adjusted or removed; new implants are placed with optional skin tightening.
Make incisions in strategic, discreet locations.
Remove old implants and adjust the capsule if needed.
Place new implants to refine size, shape, and projection.
Close with precision for a balanced, natural result.
Surgical Techniques
