Why Taking Breast Implants Out Can Cost More Than Putting Them In

Why does breast implant removal sometimes cost as much—or more—than getting implants in the first place? It sounds backwards… until you hear what actually goes into explant surgery. Explant surgery isn’t just about removing implants; it’s often about correcting the changes implants cause over time. While simple removal can be straightforward, adding capsule removal requires far more precision and time. San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Luke Swistun explains what happens to the breasts after implants are removed and why removal alone doesn’t always deliver the look women want. Hear how lifts, auto-augmentation, and fat transfer can help restore shape using your own tissue. Dr. Swistun walks through how to think about long-term goals, costs, and recovery, and why doing it right the first time can mean fewer surgeries down the road.
