What Is Breast Implant Removal?
Sometimes, after getting a breast augmentation to enhance the size and contour of the breasts, some women may decide to get them removed for a number of factors. At Derrick Plastic Surgery in Plano, TX, Dr. Chase Derrick meets with patients who want to remove their breast implants. At times, a breast lift might be needed following implant removal, depending on the size and type of the implants, as well as how much your skin was stretched. A lift can typically help to remove excess or sagging skin that can remain after an implant removal. If you desire to go back to your original breast size, breast implant removal surgery along with a breast lift can produce excellent results to get back the original look and feel of your breasts.
How Is Breast Implant Removal Performed?
During the breast implant removal surgery, the implants will be removed, and scar tissue may need to be eliminated. Scar tissue is common after a breast augmentation and needs to be removed if it's affecting the shape of your breast or causing discomfort. After the implants have been removed, Dr. Derrick can execute a fat transfer, breast lift, or both based on what had been discussed during your consultation. Additionally, there are a number of alternatives to restore volume following an implant removal to enhance the shape of the breast.
What Are the Benefits of Breast Implant Removal?
Breast implant removal procedures performed by Dr. Derrick could assist you with finding a renewed appearance and elevated degree of comfort with many excellent benefits, such as:
- Improves mobility and high-impact activity

Derrick Plastic Surgery Reviews
Dr. Derrick is amazing. I’ve had three surgeries that he’s performed: breast lift, augmentation and a tummy tuck and I couldn’t be happier. He explained that he preferred doing the lift and augmentation as separate surgeries to cut down on complications and to give the body time to heal. I interviewed another doctor, before making my decision, and asked about the 2 surgeries and they said ideally 2 surgeries is the way but they can’t talk their patients into doing it that way. That answer made me pause and question whether the doctor was doing what’s best for the patient or what was best to keep that person as a patient. Dr. Derrick is very honest even if it means talking you out of a procedure that he feels isn’t needed. This is the kind of doctor you want!! You want a doctor that won’t perform unnecessary surgeries because he sees you as a dollar sign instead of a person. He has a great bedside manner and a caring staff but most importantly he’s an absolute GENUIS in the OR. I’m in love with my results and the scars are undetectable. Highly recommend. 10/10
My daughter got her chin split open and Dr. Derrick meticulously sewed her up. He was so particular, that is likely she will have no noticeable scar in the future. In addition, his bedside manner is warm and authentic. Would highly recommend Dr. Derrick!
I chose Dr. Derrick for my Breast Lift in May 2023. The entire experience was amazing. The office staff are polite and friendly. Dr. Derrick is stunning with his work and very precise in the results. I could not be happier with my results. Am definitely considering him for other surgeries as well.
After losing 130 lbs, I reached out to Taylor at Dr. Derrick's office about some insecurities that I had and the rest was history. My entire experience with them has been top tier to say the least. They both have made me feel comfortable with each step of the process while they listened to my wants and expectations. I am almost 2 weeks post-op now and could NOT be any happier with my results!
I went to see Dr. Derrick for replacement of my breast implants that I had since 2010 and revision of a lower tummy scar. He met and exceeded my expectations. He listened well to what I wanted to do and helped me to make a successful plan of action. I am extremely pleased with the outcome of my surgery and consider it a success because he is very gifted and talented in his profession. The whole office atmosphere is amazing and welcoming. It's so nice to see a cohesive office staff. I felt very comfortable and welcome from the consultation up to my post OP visits. Very professional and very good at their jobs. I can't thank you enough Dr. Derrick. It has been a great experience. I would recommend him to those seeking self improvement.
