Cost is one of the main factors in this decision and there are many things that you should keep in mind when considering breast implant removal. It is important to remember that cost varies depending on the circumstances of the patient.
The cost to remove breast implants will depend on several things including:
- What type of implant you have
- The level of complication of the caseÂ
- Your location and surgeon’s level of expertise
- The health insurance plan you have if coverage is applicable
The first thing that you need to do is have a consultation with a doctor. This type of doctor’s appointment should not cost you anything, but it will give you an estimate of breast implant removal cost in Australia.
Another option that you should consider is searching online for local plastic surgeons to establish an average fee, but keep in mind that these costs may not be the same as what your surgeon is charging.
If you are looking to save money, it is recommended to discuss with your surgeon your circumstances and requirements.Â
Reasons To Have Breast Implants Removed
There are many reasons why a woman may want to remove breast implants. Women may want to consider breast implant removal if they are experiencing any of the following:
- Health concerns
- Pain or discomfort
- To have a natural appearance for clothing or sports wear
- When the implants are no longer required
If you are thinking about getting breast implant removal in Sydney, the first thing you should do is discuss the topic with their plastic surgeon.
Potential Health Complications
Your surgeon will perform an examination of the patient to make sure that there are no medical issues that could prevent the implant from being removed. During this physical examination, a doctor will also discuss any health issues that could arise because of removing breast implants.
Health complications may include silicone leakage and rupturing of the implant. Women who experience these symptoms will need to undergo surgery in order for this problem to be resolved. Surgery is also encouraged for women who have a family history of breast cancer because this type of surgery can lower the risk.
Women who have implants that are rupturing or leaking silicone may experience: swelling of the breasts, redness, pain, tightness of the skin over one or both breasts, rashes and rash-like blisters. This type of complication should not be ignored because it can sometimes spread to other parts of the body.

Pain and discomfort is a very common reason for women to get breast implants removed. Some patients will experience pain in the shoulders or neck area. Other individuals will feel discomfort in their arms and hands because they are unable to perform certain activities like typing vigorously at work or exercising with ease because the breast implant is in their way. These complications can be fixed by removing one or both implants.
Sometimes, a patient will want to get breast implants removed because the implants are not creating a natural look and the patient would like to have only one implant. This procedure is not often done and should not be taken lightly by women.
