Dr. Raffi Hovsepian is proud to offer a wide range of procedural options, so you’ll work together to figure out the best way to truly address your issues.

You’re an excellent candidate for breast implant removal if you have decided that you would simply prefer a cosmetic change, or if you’re dealing with issues like:

Rupturing
Sagging
Changes in size
Positional changing
Wrinkling
Deformity

Capsular Contracture

In some cases, the body can form a “capsule” of hardened tissue around the breast implant. This is known as capsular contracture and is essentially an overreaction of the body’s natural response to the placement of a breast implant.

This issue can sometimes be cosmetic in nature, while in other instances it can develop into a painful problem. Implant removal is an effective solution to capsular contracture, and Dr. Hovsepian will help you explore your options during your consultation.

More About the Implant Removal Procedure

In many cases, Dr. Raffi Hovsepian is able to utilize the scars that were made as part of your initial breast augmentation procedure, enabling him to avoid the creation of new scars.

During your consultation, Dr. Hovsepian will talk you through everything that you can expect after your procedure, including details about your recovery period, and everything you need to know about your aftercare instructions. Since every procedure is different, these details are often quite unique from patient to patient.
