Combined Breast Implant Explantation and Multilevel Mastopexy Technique

Patients dissatisfied with their breast implants are faced with 2 options: secondary augmentation or removal of the implants. Simple removal of breast implants often leads to wide, deflated, and laterally displaced breasts which are notoriously difficult to reconstruct. We present a surgical technique that was specifically developed to recreate the breast mound using the wide laterally displaced breast tissue left after breast implant removal.
