We understand the importance of feeling supported and well-informed at DVA Plastic Surgery in Houston. Led by Dr. Dare V. Ajibade, MD, a board-certified plastic surgeon with advanced cosmetic and reconstructive surgery training, our team is here to provide compassionate, expert guidance. Here are the top five reasons people often choose to remove their implants and how we can help you explore your options confidently.
1: Health Concerns
For some individuals, health concerns can lead to implant removal. Some may experience symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, or breast pain, which they associate with their implants. Known as Breast Implant Illness (BII), these symptoms may improve following implant removal.
Although not fully understood, BII is a recognized concern for many, and our team at DVA Plastic Surgery takes it seriously. If you’re noticing unexpected symptoms that you think might be linked to your implants, a consultation with a specialist can provide clarity and options.
2: Lifestyle Changes
As life progresses, personal preferences often change, and this can influence how people feel about their implants. Changes in career, fitness goals, or family planning can make implant removal an appealing option.
For instance, those engaging in high-impact sports may seek greater comfort, or those with shifting aesthetic goals may prefer a more natural look. Our team in Houston understands that lifestyle plays a major role in these decisions, and we can help you find the right solution for your unique journey.
3: Implant Complications
Complications like implant rupture, capsular contracture (where tissue around the implant hardens), or shifting can sometimes lead to the need for removal.
These complications can cause discomfort, pain, and an unnatural appearance, which removal may remedy. Choosing to remove implants can be an effective way to regain comfort and peace of mind if complications arise.
4: Aging Implants
Breast implants aren’t designed to last a lifetime. Over time, implants can change in appearance, and some may even require replacement. If you’re not interested in replacing your implants, removal offers an alternative that can restore a natural aesthetic. At DVA Plastic Surgery, we can discuss what implant aging may mean and offer recommendations for your long-term goals.
5: Preference for a Natural Look
Trends in body image and personal aesthetics are constantly evolving. Some people find that their preferences shift toward a natural look over time, prompting them to consider implant removal. Whether it’s the current aesthetic trends or a personal decision, opting for a natural look is increasingly common, and our team at DVA is ready to support this choice.
