Implant exchange is a procedure crafted to improve or replace existing breast implants, giving you the flexibility to adjust size, shape, or implant type. Athēnix in Marina Del Rey is dedicated to delivering a personalized implant exchange experience that ensures optimal results.
The decision to undergo implant exchange is a personal one, driven by various factors such as:
As time passes, your aesthetic aspirations may evolve, leading to a desire for a change in implant size or type.
Some individuals may require implant exchange due to complications or the natural lifespan of their implants.
If you wish to achieve a different breast shape or size, implant exchange can help you realize your desired results.
In some cases, implant exchange is necessary to resolve complications like rupture, capsular contracture, or implant malposition.
Medical concerns may also prompt a change in breast implants.
If you seek to change the size, shape, or type of your implants, the surgeon will remove the old implants and replace them with new ones using the same incisions from your initial surgery. A capsulectomy will remove the entire scar tissue capsule typically formed around breast implants, providing a fresh start with new implants and reducing the risk of complications. Our surgeons will design a personalized plan to safely remove and replace your existing implants.

What about scarring from implant exchange?
The safety of implant exchange is typically ensured when it's carried out by a qualified and experienced surgeon in a certified medical facility. As with most surgical procedures, associated risks will be thoroughly explained during your consultation to empower you to make an informed decision.
Choosing the right surgeon is a pivotal step for a successful implant exchange. It's essential to seek out a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive expertise in implant exchange procedures. During consultations, you'll have the opportunity to discuss your goals and set expectations.
Implant exchange, similar to many surgical procedures, may leave scars. Nevertheless, our highly skilled plastic surgeons employ advanced techniques to minimize scarring, making them as inconspicuous as possible. Over time, these scars tend to naturally fade and become less noticeable.
