Sometimes patients wish to return to their natural size, and other times they desire a new implant that is either bigger or smaller. In a few rare cases, breast implants can make a patient sick.

After implants are removed, excess skin or skin laxity may cause the area to sag or look droopy. When this occurs, your breast tissue needs to be recontoured to achieve an aesthetically pleasing appearance. Unwanted skin will be removed, and the breasts will be repositioned higher on the chest. If desired, a fat transfer may be conducted to add natural volume to the breasts.
In rare cases, patients develop Breast Implant Illness (BIA). While further research is needed, BIA is thought to be linked to the immune system's response to breast implants. BIA may take years to surface and, if left untreated, could lead to other medical problems.
Symptoms of BIA vary from person to person, but some common experiences include the list below. Since other underlying conditions could cause these symptoms, it is crucial to see a doctor for a thorough evaluation.
