BREAST IMPLANT REMOVAL
BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTOS – PATIENT 05
Breast Implant Removal with Internal Dermal Bra Breast Reduction & Lift with Back Liposculpting
This 43 year old female presented to Dr. Agha with large breasts following previous breast augmentation with implants and tummy tuck elsewhere. The patient wished to undergo implant removal, breast lift, and liposuction of her back to enhance her back view, as well as hour-glass silhouette.
On examination, the patient was found to have DDD/F breast cup size with ample breast tissue. She also had multiple back rolls and excess fatty fullness of her lower back, love-handles, waist, and sacrum.
During her surgery, Dr. Agha removed 480 cc smooth round silicone implants from both breasts. The right implant was intact but the left was leaking silicone. As per plan of surgery, he next reduced the patient’s naturally large breasts. About 140 grams of breast tissue was cut out from the right side and 147 grams on the left side. Dr. Agha then performed his signature internal dermal-bra breast lift. This technique was pioneered by Drs. Rubin and Agha in 2005 and is a specialized breast lift that creates a breast mound that is placed high on the chest via sutures. At the same time, the excess breast skin was used as an internal bra to hold the breast tissue at a higher position.
During this surgery, the patient also had over 3500 cc of liposuction of her mid, lower back, and flanks. As you can appreciate, Dr. Agha beautifully sculpted the patient’s back to create an hour-glass look. See patient’s liposuction results at Liposuction Patient 32
