Breast implant removal is a surgical procedure to remove breast implants and the surrounding scar tissue. Reasons for breast implant removal include complications like implant rupture, capsular contracture, or breast implant illness, as well as personal preferences or changes in lifestyle.

The growing demand for breast implant removal may be due to a greater awareness of the risks and complications associated with breast implants, as well as a shift in societal norms towards natural beauty and body positivity. Patients considering breast implant removal should consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss their goals and expectations, as well as the risks and benefits of the surgery.
