What Is a Breast Implant Exchange Procedure?

A breast implant exchange procedure is a cosmetic surgery done with the intention of removing your current breast implants and exchanging them for new ones. This procedure can be done for many reasons, but the most common include changes in aesthetic desire and replacing damaged or ruptured implants.

Why Choose Breast Implant Exchange?

Women opt for a breast implant exchange for various reasons, such as changing aesthetic preferences, implant aging, or to correct any potential complications. Specific reasons someone may opt for a breast implant exchange can include:

  • Changing aesthetics with age
  • Desire to switch between either textured or smooth breast implants
  • Want to exchange the type of implant
  • Issues with your current breast implants
  • Desire for change as a result of aging, pregnancy, and weight gain/loss

Potential complications that may require a breast implant exchange include:

  • Swelling
  • Asymmetry
  • Malposition
  • Capsular contracture
  • Implant rupture

It’s a highly individual choice, but thankfully, a conversation with Dr. Golosow can help clarify if this is the right path for you.

What is a Breast Implant Exchange Procedure Like?

A breast implant exchange procedure involves removing the existing implants and replacing them with new ones, which can address issues such as implant aging, changes in breast size preference, or complications like capsular contracture. Dr. Golosow makes an incision, often in the same location as the original one, removes the old implants, and then inserts the new ones, possibly using different sizes or types to achieve the desired outcome. The procedure may also involve adjusting the breast pocket or addressing any scar tissue. Recovery is similar to initial implant surgery, with patients typically needing a few weeks to heal and see the final results.

What Makes the Breast Implant Exchange Stand Out?

A breast implant exchange offers patients an opportunity for renewal and transformation. Unlike other surgeries, breast implant exchange allows patients to revise their prior decisions and choose an implant that better suits their current needs or aesthetic preferences. Technological advancements in the field of plastic surgery allow those with older implants to experience improved implant quality, offering excellent longevity and aesthetic appeal.
