Procedures: Breast Implant Removal
Due to public concern about the perceived health risks of silicone-gel breast implants, a number of women continue to seek implant-removal surgery. When a woman decides to have her silicone-gel implants surgically removed or replaced with saline-filled implants, she may also opt for removal of the scar tissue barrier or "capsule" that naturally forms around the implants when they are inserted. This procedure is called a capsulectomy.
