How Long Does Breast Implant Removal Take?
Removing breast implants, often called breast implant explant, is a surgery that can be performed via many different techniques. This impacts the overall surgical time required to effectively perform the procedure. Dr. Sessa will provide a more detailed description of your procedure and how long it will take during a consultation. However, let’s take a closer look at, “How long does breast implant take?”
In its simplest forms, a breast implant explant can take around an hour. This may be when a partial capsulectomy is performed, or when the implants are removed and new ones are placed. If you require a full capsulectomy, the time can go up to between one and two and a half hours.
An en bloc breast implant removal takes the longest because it has the lowest field of visibility and requires precision. It can take anywhere from two to four hours based on the specifics of the implant and surgery. Of course, these times can waver either way depending on your needs and the individual procedure.
