Abstract

The safety of silicone breast implants has been questioned due to concerns such as the risk of associated lymphoma, as well as rheumatological and systemic symptoms. This has resulted in an increased demand for explantation, posing the challenge of addressing stigmas related to implant removal. There is a dearth of literature on techniques for restoring breast contour postexplantation. After implant removal, the original breast anatomy is altered, and depressed areas may manifest in random locations. To reposition the breast tissue displaced by the implant, we enlarge the retroglandular pocket and subsequently use sutures for centripetal traction, relocating the tissue back to the footprint area but now in an improved position, delineating the breast contour. This maneuver enables us to restore the breast contour to an anatomical condition akin to preimplantation; diminish the final explantation defect, creating a more suitable pocket for delicate mastopexy flaps; recruit breast tissue, allowing internal sutures to conceal tissue irregularities; and redesign the breast contour area on the chest to achieve better symmetry.
