Breast explantation with reconstruction (Implant removal)

Breast explantation is an outpatient surgical procedure designed to remove implants due to personal choice, changes in aesthetic expectations, the presence of symptoms, capsular contracture, or local complications. Beyond the surgical act, it represents an important physical and emotional process for many patients, aimed at restoring well-being and a more natural version of their body. The surgery may involve the removal of the implant along with the management of the capsule (total capsulectomy) based on an individual clinical evaluation, and in most cases, it is associated with a breast lift to optimize the shape and support of the breast. The goal is to restore a harmonious contour while respecting anatomy and prioritizing safety. Dr. Catherine Barón's unique approach includes a thorough medical evaluation to determine the appropriate management of the capsule, responsible indications based on clinical criteria rather than trends, personalized planning for the desired outcome (with or without a lift), and close support throughout the entire process, backed by strict safety protocols and a structured postoperative follow-up.
