Breast Implant Removal with Lift Before and After: An Expert Guide From a Tokyo Aesthetic Clinic

These days, more and more people in Tokyo are choosing breast implant removal combined with breast lift to feel lighter and look more natural.

As you browse breast implant removal with lift before and after photos, you may wonder what is realistic, safe, and suitable for you.

This plastic surgery option addresses skin rippling over the implant, breast firmness from scar tissue, post-pregnancy changes, or simply suits your new lifestyle.

At BIANCA CLINIC, a Tokyo-based aesthetic clinic with English-speaking specialists, we take your situation and personalized goals seriously and this guide has been designed to explain what breast implant removal with lift entails, the key features and benefits of this procedure, how it compares with alternatives, recovery, costs, and how our plastic surgery team supports you every step of the way.

What Is Breast Implant Removal with Lift Before and After?

Breast implant removal with lift combines explant surgery (removing implants and treating the surrounding capsule as needed) with a breast lift (mastopexy) that reshapes the breast and raises the nipple.

The goal is to have a natural looking breast using your own tissue so the before and after shows improvement in both volume and uplift.

Breast Implant Removal with Lift Before and After – The Key features

The procedure is performed in one operation with one form of anesthesia.

If indicated, the surrounding scar tissue (capsule) is also treated and incisions are placed around the areola, vertical or in an anchor pattern.

The outcome is a more natural looking and feeling breast.

Breast Implant Removal with Lift Before and After – Benefits

Patients will notice a lighter chest and improved posture.

After the operation, your breasts are more balanced with the rest of your body so that your dresses, bras and clothing fit more naturally with the rest of your body proportions.

Without the implant, there is no further maintenance required and it is even possible to combine this procedure with fat transfer to add more fullness to your breasts.

Breast Implant Removal with Lift Before and After -Expected Timeline to recovery

After 1 week, most patients are able to return to desk work.

Bruising subsides during weeks 2-3 and you can restart light cardio exercises.

Scars begin to soften in week 6-8 and by 3-6 months you will have reached your final appearance.

We will then take your after-surgery photos to complete your before and after record.

Note that individuals heal at different rates and these timelines are only general guides.

Breast Implant Removal with Lift Before and After – Comparing Surgical Options

Breast Implant Removal with Lift (Before and After) offers patients perky, natural looking breasts which will be long-lasting.

Costs are mid-range to high, and most patients are able to return to desk work after about a week

Explant only

This operation results in a flatter chest with possible drooping or sagging (breast ptosis) with costs that are lower and recovery that is slightly shorter.

Explant + fat transfer

The fat transfer adds soft volume to the breast after your explant.

The procedure adds costs and patients may experience some donor-site soreness.

Implant exchange

Replacing the old implant with a new one maintains breast size.

Monitoring will still be required and patients typically return to work in about a week.

Energy skin tightening

This has mild effects and requires multiple sessions.

There is minimal convalescence time, and patients return to desk work almost immediately.

Breast Implant Removal with Lift Before and After -Who Is a Suitable Candidate?

You will be suitable for this surgery if you are a healthy, non-smoking adult with heavy or asymmetrical implants, implants that have moved with weight and pregnancy changes, or if you simply want freedom from implant maintenance and a lifted, proportionate breast shape.

You will need to accept any new scars to produce a better appearance and carefully follow aftercare instructions in Tokyo.

Breast Implant Removal with Lift Before and After – FAQs

Will I lose a lot of breast volume?

After this procedure, cup size typically drops whilst the breast lift sculpts the breast.

Patients may choose to add fat transfer during plastic surgery planning for a more natural appearance.

Can I breastfeed after a breast lift?

This is often possible as glandular tissue is preserved but it is not guaranteed.

You may wish to discuss your future plans during the consultation.

What scars should I expect?

Scar patterns may be peri-areolar, vertical, and sometimes under-breast.

We recommend silicone care which helps the scars fade.

How painful is the operation and how long will I be off work?

Most patients experience some breast soreness for the first few days which is controlled with painkillers.

You will usually be able to return to desk work in 7–10 days after this plastic surgery.

I live overseas, how long should I stay in Tokyo?

We advise overseas patients to plan for 7–10 days to include post-op check-ups.

If you prefer, we offer video follow-ups after you return home.
