About Breast Implant Exchange Surgery

Breast implant exchange is a surgical procedure to replace or upgrade existing breast implants. Whether motivated by a desire for a different size, shape, or type of implant, or necessitated by the need for maintenance, or correction of complications, Inspire Aesthetics tailors personalized procedures to help individuals achieve their desired aesthetic results.

In almost all cases of implant exchange, we carefully adjust the pocket— the space holding the implant.

Over time, the pocket may no longer accommodate the implant, especially when opting for a different size. This adjustment typically involves the use of sutures within the body, and occasionally, mesh may be employed.

It’s worth noting that implant exchange is often coupled with a lift, although this is not always the case. Your unique needs and preferences will guide our approach to ensure the long-term health and appearance of your breasts

Your Breast Implant Exchange Consultation

During your consultation for a breast implant exchange in Delray Beach or Fort Lauderdale, you’ll have the opportunity to discuss your goals and concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon. The surgeon will listen attentively to your reasons for seeking a breast implant exchange. You should be prepared to share your desired outcomes, whether it’s a change in size or shape or addressing any issues you’ve experienced with your current implants. Your surgeon will inquire about your overall health, prior surgeries, and lifestyle, including smoking habits.

The surgeon will also examine your breasts to assess their current condition, the position of the implants, and any signs of complications like capsule contracture or implant malposition. Next, your surgeon will explain the procedure, including the surgical techniques, potential risks, and the expected recovery process. They will provide recommendations tailored to your unique circumstances, helping you decide whether breast implant exchange is the right choice for you. Finally, the surgeon will curate a personalized surgical plan.

Best Candidates

The best candidates for breast implant exchange are typically individuals who have undergone previous breast augmentation and wish to make specific changes or address complications. They should be in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and understand that breast implant exchange is a surgical procedure with associated risks. Candidates should also be non-smokers or willing to quit before the surgery. Our board-certified surgeons can determine if you’re a good candidate and customize a personalized treatment plan during your consultation.

Your Breast Implant Exchange Recovery Process

Immediately following the procedure, you may experience discomfort, swelling, and bruising in the chest area. Your surgeon will provide guidelines on pain management, and you’ll be advised to wear a supportive bra to aid in healing. Rest and gentle movement are essential during the initial days, but you should avoid strenuous activities for six to eight weeks. Over the next weeks, your body will gradually adapt to the new implants. Your surgeon will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress.
