Implant removal w/ auto augmentation Before & After Case 395

This patient sought implant removal w/ auto augmentation in San Antonio to achieve a more natural and lighter breast contour. After living with saline implants of approximately 350cc, she decided it was time for a change. Her goal was to remove the implants and restore a youthful appearance while maintaining upper fullness, all without the use of fat grafting or new implants.

Prior to surgery, Dr. Michael Ablavsky MD ruptured the implants in the office. This step allowed the surrounding tissue and implant pockets to contract naturally, optimizing the conditions for the subsequent procedures. The patient then underwent removal of her implants, combined with a breast lift and the auto augmentation technique. Upper pole volume was carefully preserved using her own tissue.

The results offer this patient a lighter, more comfortable feel and a refreshed breast shape. She was able to attain the desired look without foreign material or additional fat transfer. Her outcome demonstrates a considered approach to body changes and evolving aesthetic goals.

Dr. Ablavsky, a board-certified plastic surgeon based in San Antonio, performed this implant removal w/ auto augmentation. His personalized care and attention both before and after surgery have guided many patients through transformative procedures at Ablavsky Plastic Surgery.
