Patient Case #5323

Procedure Information

This 59-year-old woman had decades-old ruptured gel implants and was unhappy with their appearance. She wanted the implants removed but hoped to maintain her breast volume if possible, and also wished to address droopiness.

Dr. Wilson performed bilateral implant removal with capsulectomy, a breast lift using a periareolar technique to minimize scarring, and autologous fat transfer from the abdomen to restore lost volume (120 cc to the right breast and 145 cc to the left).

The result is a natural, lifted, and balanced appearance—without implants. She was able to maintain fullness while achieving a more youthful breast shape, all with discreet scarring.
