When to Remove and Replace Old Breast Implants

Breast implants generally last for decades, and while some women never experience any difficulties following breast augmentation, there may come a time when it is necessary to remove and replace old breast implants. Board-certified Long Island plastic surgeon Dr. Gregory Diehl has over two decades of experience helping women determine when it is time to replace implants. If you believe your implants need to be replaced, please call 877-476-8512 today to schedule an initial consultation.

Why Replace Breast Implants

You may want to replace your breast implants if you experience issues such as:

• Implant rupture or deflation
• Capsular contracture
• Ripples, wrinkles, or double bubble
• Symmetrical changes
• A desire to change size or shape
• A desire to change the type of implants such as saline to silicone implants or vice versa

No matter what your concern, if you feel that your implants are no longer suiting your needs or if they are causing you any discomfort, Dr. Diehl can examine your breasts and help you determine if replacing them would be your best option.

If you live in or around Long Island, New York and are experiencing issues with your breast implants, please contact Diehl Plastic Surgery to schedule an appointment today.
