Implant Removal / Explantation

Breast Implant Removal (Explantation)

Breast implants, whether silicone or saline, are not meant to last a lifetime and there is always risk for leakage or rupture.

Dr. Amy DeRosa D.O., F.A.C.O.S., F.A.C.S. specializes in the removal of breast implants.  A capsulectomy is the surgical removal of scar tissue, or capsule that has become thickened and hardened around a breast implant. The capsule is composed of fibroblast, collagen and blood vessels.  If you are considering removal of your breast implants you need to consult with Dr. DeRosa to discuss your options.
