Removal of Breast Implants

Actual La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre patient with staff

You may be a candidate for removal of breast implants if you desire to have previously placed breast implants removed for medical or personal reasons.

The intent of this surgery is the removal of your implants, and possible removal of capsules (scar tissue) and local silicone.

This procedure can be done under local anesthesia if just the implants are being removed. If capsules or scar tissue around the implants are also being removed, sedation and local, or general anesthesia will be required.
