Breast Augmentation
POSTED ON MONDAY, JUNE 27, 2022 AT 6:09 PM by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi
Breast augmentation is a common cosmetic procedure performed to enhance breast size and shape. This surgery uses implants to increase breast size, providing patients with a fuller or more feminine-looking chest.
While breast implants remain a common plastic surgery procedure, many patients are choosing to remove their implants for a variety of reasons. Over the years, as our bodies change shape and size, some patients may feel their breast implants no longer suit their figure. In some cases, patients may seek breast explant surgery following capsular contracture or other complications. Silicone breast implants are also commonly removed to switch to saline implants, known to be safer and more natural-looking. Whether you’re seeking breast implant removal for medical or aesthetic concerns, Dr. Asaadi can perform breast implant removal and breast implant replacement based on your goals and desires.
What is Breast Implant Removal?
Breast implant removal is performed to extract breast implants from a previous breast augmentation. The procedure can also remove any residual scar tissue.
What is Breast Implant Replacement?
Breast implant replacement is performed in order to replace existing breast implants with ones that are safer or more suitable for the patient. Dr. Asaadi offers breast implant revision to remove old implants with implants that fit your anatomy. Dr. Asaadi only uses saline breast implants.
Reasons for Breast Implant Removal or Replacement
-
Unhappiness With Breast Size
-
Correct Implant Rupture or Leakage
-
An Infection
-
Correct Results from a Previous Surgeon
-
Change in Physique
-
Accident or Injury to Breast Implant
What to Expect Before Breast Implant Removal or Replacement
Before your breast implant removal or replacement, Dr. Asaadi will perform a thorough examination to assess your current implants and create a plan that will fit your needs. During the procedure, anesthesia will be administered to ensure your comfort and safety throughout the process. The implants will then be removed from a small incision under the breast. New implants will be inserted through this same incision if the patient has chosen to replace them.
What to Expect After Breast Implant Removal or Replacement
The recovery process following a breast implant removal or replacement will vary depending on the patient, considering everyone heals at different rates. Swelling, discomfort, and bruising are common and will gradually subside as the healing process progresses. It is important that patients rest and allow their bodies proper time to mend.
Breast Implant Removal Paired with Breast Lift
Oftentimes, breast lift surgery is recommended following breast implant removal. After larger implants are removed, the breast tissue can be weakened and sagging. A breast lift can remove excess skin and reposition the nipples, creating a youthful-looking, perkier chest. The results of breast implant removal paired with breast lift appear natural and are long-lasting.

As you age, you may notice that your breasts are beginning to sag or droop. For women with larger breasts, this sagging may occur even earlier.
While many patients have considered breast augmentation with implants to improve the size and shape of their breasts, many patients may also benefit from a breast lift.
Combining breast augmentation with a breast lift can add volume to the breasts while lifting the breasts to a more youthful position.
What Is Breast Augmentation?
Breast implants can add natural-looking volume, shape, and definition the breasts. At Asaadi Plastic Surgery, we only use saline breast implants during breast augmentation.
What Is A Breast Lift?
During a breast lift, excess skin is removed from the breasts, and the breasts are lifted. Following breast lift, the nipples are also repositioned to a more youthful position for the most natural-looking results.
Combining Breast Augmentation & A Breast Lift
While there are many benefits from undergoing breast augmentation or a breast lift, combining these procedures can make even more of a difference in women who are unhappy with the appearance of their breasts. During a breast augmentation with breast lift, the breasts are simultaneously lifted and enlarged for a fuller, more youthful-looking appearance. Breast augmentation can help you achieve the size and shape breasts you desire while a breast lift helps you achieve the youthful placement of your breasts.
How Do I Know If I Need A Breast Augmentation With Lift?
It may be difficult for some women to know if they need breast augmentation, a breast lift, or both. If you are unhappy with the size, shape, and symmetry of your breasts, you may benefit from breast augmentation. On the other hand, women who are dissatisfied with sagging or drooping breasts may choose to undergo a breast lift. For women who are both unhappy with the size of their breasts as well as potential sagging, a breast augmentation with breast lift is often suggested.
Reasons For Breast Augmentation With Lift:
-
Sagging Breasts
-
Flattened, Elongated Breasts
-
Nipples That Point Downward
-
Nipples That Sit Below The Breast Crease
-
Asymmetrical Breasts

Breast augmentation is a popular breast enhancement surgery that uses implants to add volume to the breasts. While breast augmentation is a safe and effective treatment, some patients may one day choose to remove or replace their breast implants.
Breast explant surgery is designed to remove breast implants for cosmetic or medical concerns. Patients sometimes choose to combine breast explant surgery with breast augmentation to remove past implants and replace them with new implants. Replacing previous implants following breast explant surgery can maintain the size and shape of the breasts.
Breast lift surgery may also be combined with breast explant surgery to ensure the breasts are youthful-looking following the removal of breast implants.
Breast Implant Cosmetic Concerns
Patients often choose to undergo breast explant surgery when they are concerned about the cosmetic appearance of their breast implants. Some patients may feel they would like a larger or smaller size implant to better complement changes to their physique over time.
While the implants may not be causing any harm, some patients prefer to replace their current breast implants with new implants or remove the breast implants altogether.
Breast Implants Are Too Large: If a patient has lost significant weight or no longer desires the size implants that they have, breast explant surgery can remove implants that no longer complement a patient’s figure. If the patient desires, Dr. Asaadi can replace these implants with smaller breast implants.
Breast Implants Are Too Small: Some patients wish to increase overall breast size. In these cases, breast explant surgery can be performed to remove breast implants and combined with revision breast augmentation to insert larger implants.
Breast Implants Appear Unnatural-Looking: If a patient has undergone breast augmentation with a less skilled plastic surgeon, Dr. Asaadi can remove breast implants and replace them. Revision breast augmentation can also be performed if the patient desires.
No Longer Desire Breast Implants: Sometimes, a patient may simply no longer desire breast implants. Breast explant surgery can be performed to remove breast implants. In many cases, a breast lift is performed to ensure the breasts appear youthful following the removal of breast implants.
Breast Implant Medical Concerns
While breast augmentation is a very safe cosmetic procedure, there are certain medical concerns that may arise from having breast implants. Through Dr. Asaadi’s years in practice, he has accomplished a 100% success rate of breast implant surgery without medical concerns such as capsular contracture or implant leakage.
Breast Implant Infection: Breast explant can remove implants that have caused a bacterial infection in the tissue around the implants.
Capsular Contracture: Capsular contracture causes the tissues in the breasts to tighten and become too firm, which can lead to the breasts being painful or unnatural-looking. Breast explant surgery is required to remove these implants and treat the underlying medical condition.
Breast Implant Rupture: A breast implant may rupture or leak following an accident or physical trauma. A leaking or damaged breast implant must be removed to ensure proper breast health.
Dr. Asaadi and our staff welcome any questions you may have about breast explant, as well as our other breast enhancement treatments. Contact our New Jersey office at 913.731.7000, our New York office at 212.938.0158, or you may request an appointment online today!

While childbirth is a rewarding experience for mothers, it can take a drastic toll on their bodies.
A mommy makeover is a combination of plastic surgery procedures performed to restore a mother’s curves back to what they were prior to giving birth.
Mommy makeover surgery is recommended for women who do not plan to have any more children and are looking to improve their figure.
Common Mommy Makeover Procedures
Some of the most common mommy makeover procedures include breast enhancement, liposuction, and a tummy tuck.
While these procedures are most commonly performed, a mommy makeover is fully customizable to the unique treatment goals of each patient.
During your consultation, Dr. Asaadi can help you create an individualized mommy makeover treatment that targets all areas of concern.
Breast Enhancement
In the majority of mommy makeovers, breast enhancement is typically performed. Breast enhancement surgery can include breast augmentation, breast reduction, or a breast lift. Some patients often choose to combine multiple breast enhancement procedures during their mommy makeover for the most youthful-looking results possible.
Common Breast Enhancement Procedures:
Liposuction
Liposuction is an effective way to remove stubborn fat deposits from the abdomen as well as the thighs, legs, arms, and more. With advancements in technology, there are many liposuction techniques that each have a unique advantage. Some of our most popular liposuction techniques include tumescent liposuction, super-wet liposuction, and VASER® LipoSelection.
Tumescent liposuction uses a small cannula underneath the skin to break fat deposits up and safely remove them from the body. Similar to tumescent liposuction, super-wet liposuction uses a small cannula to remove fat deposits. Super-wet liposuction can reduce overall procedure time as it uses less fluid during treatment. Finally, VASER® LipoSelection is a minimally invasive liposuction technique that uses ultrasound technology to remove fat and tighten loose skin.
Common Liposuction Procedures:
Tummy Tuck
Tummy tuck surgery, which is also known as abdominoplasty, is a body contouring surgery that can remove excess fat and skin from the stomach while tightening the underlying abdominal muscles. At Asaadi Plastic Surgery, we offer traditional tummy tuck surgery and CORE Abdominoplasty℠.
Tummy tuck surgery can help achieve a slimmer waistline and is often combined with abdominal liposuction to remove stubborn fat deposits. CORE Abdominoplasty℠ is a revolutionary tummy tuck procedure where patients are positioned at a 45° angle during surgery. This allows Dr. Asaadi to further tighten weakened abdominal muscles.
Common Abdominoplasty Procedures:
Customize Your Mommy Makeover
While breast enhancement, liposuction, and tummy tuck procedures are commonly performed during a mommy makeover, patients can create their own treatment plan with the help of Dr. Asaadi. Additional procedures that patients may choose to undergo during a mommy makeover include a thigh lift, arm lift, and labiaplasty. Some patients also choose to combine non-invasive treatments or cosmetic injectables to further improve their mommy makeover results.
Dr. Asaadi and our staff welcome any questions you may have about a mommy makeover, as well as our other plastic surgery procedures. Contact our New Jersey office at 913.731.7000, our New York office at 212.938.0158, or you may request an appointment online today!

Breast augmentation is one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures. Breast augmentation uses breast implants to improve the shape, size, and symmetry of the breasts.
While breast implants are long-lasting, some patients may choose to undergo breast implant replacement. Breast implant replacement is performed to remove breast implants and exchange them for a new pair of breast implants.
When Should I Consider Breast Implant Replacement?
In the majority of cases, breast implant replacement is performed to correct minor cosmetic concerns a patient may have with their breast implants.
On the other hand, breast implant replacement is sometimes performed to treat a medical complication related to breast implants, such as capsular contracture or breast implant rupture.
While medical complications due to breast implants are possible, Dr. Asaadi has a 100% success rate of no capsular contracture or implant rupture throughout his career.
Exchange Silicone Breast Implants To Saline Breast Implants
At Asaadi Plastic Surgery, we only offer saline breast implants. Saline implants provide more natural-looking results and have been proven to be a safer and more effective option. Many patients choose to remove their silicone breast implants and replace them with saline breast implants for the most natural-looking results possible.
Increase Breast Implant Size
Breast implant replacement can be performed if a patient desires larger breasts. During this procedure, the current breast implants are removed and replaced with larger breast implants to help patients achieve their treatment goals.
Decrease Breast Implant Size
In some cases, patients may decide they wish to have smaller breasts. Patients who have lost a signifigant amount of weight for example may feel that their current breast implants no longer complement their figure as well as they once have. To correct this, Dr. Asaadi can remove breast implants and replace them with smaller breast implants to better fit a patient’s figure.
Improve Results From A Previous Surgeon
Sometimes, patients are unsatisfied with their breast implant results from a previous plastic surgeon. Dr. Asaadi offers breast implant revision with breast implant replacement to correct any unnatural-looking results from a previous procedure.
Treat A Breast Implant Rupture
Breast implant replacement surgery is sometimes performed for medical concerns, such as treating a breast implant rupture. A breast implant may rupture or leak following a fall or accident. Damaged implants can be removed and replaced, or simply removed.
Correct Capsular Contracture
Capsular contracture is a medical condition where tissue around the breast implant tightens and becomes too firm. To treat capsular contracture, the breast implants must be removed completly or removed and replaced with new breast implants.
Dr. Asaadi and our staff welcome any questions you may have about breast implant replacement, as well as our other breast enhancement procedures. Contact our New Jersey office at 913.731.7000, our New York office at 212.938.0158, or you may request an appointment online today!
