For women who are dissatisfied with the outcomes of their breast augmentation, or those who experience complications with breast implants may be suitable candidates for saline or silicone breast implant removal surgery.

This procedure might become necessary if the primary breast augmentation was not performed correctly. Board certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Farah Naz Khan provides breast implant removal surgery to patients in Dallas, Texas, and surrounding locations.

Choosing between Implant Removal and Replacement

The surgeon will determine the reasons for the breast augmentation complications and advise the patient on a course of action prior to the breast implant revision surgery.

In case the patient chooses to undergo breast implant replacement, this procedure will be carried out during the breast implant removal surgery.

However, if the patient requires only breast implant removal, the surgeon will advise them on plastic surgery options such as breast lift surgery. These can be undertaken simultaneously with the breast implant removal surgery.

Before the surgery, the surgeon will evaluate the implants and the surrounding tissue for leakage, inflammation, infection, and rupture.

Informing the Patient

At the time of the initial consultation, a dedicated surgeon will inform the patient on all facets of breast implant removal to enable her to make an informed choice. The surgeon will explain the breast removal surgery benefits, risks, steps involved, and the estimated recovery duration following the procedure.

The surgeon will also ensure that the patient is choosing to undergo the procedure without any influence or pressure from someone else. Well-informed patients are able to make a more enlightened decision on breast implant removal surgery and usually achieve higher levels of satisfaction as well.

Ideal Candidates

A top priority for the surgeon during a breast implant removal consultation is establishing the patient as a candidate for this procedure. The surgeon will perform a general medical examination and assess the breast anatomy, skin texture, and elasticity.

In addition, the surgeon will evaluate the medical and surgical history of the patient and may order medical tests, if required. They will incorporate the aesthetic goals of the patient into the breast surgery plan.

Guidelines for Preparation and Recovery

If the patient smokes, the surgeon will require them to stop smoking for several weeks before and after the breast surgery.

Furthermore, they may also change the patient’s schedule for prescription medications, blood thinners, and herbal supplements in discussion with the prescribing doctor.

Developing Reasonable Expectations

During the pre-op consultation process, some surgeons may show the patient before and after breast implant surgery pictures of previous patients to help her develop reasonable expectations from the procedure. Patients with realistic expectations are typically more satisfied with the final outcome and feel more confident.

The surgeon may also present testimonials of previous patients to the new patient to help her understand the procedure from the perspective of another patient. In addition, the patient may request for a short office tour to acquaint herself with the surgeon’s practice.

Nasal fractures occur in almost 40 percent of all bone injuries in cases of trauma to the face. The treatment commences with primary care.

This involves an assessment of the extent of the injury, establishing the reasons for the injury, and evaluating the nasal and facial condition before the injury.

An experienced nose surgeon can provide suitable treatment for a nasal fracture. Board certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Farah Naz Khan provides rhinoplasty to patients in Dallas, Texas, and surrounding communities.

Types of Nasal Fractures

There are different types of nasal fractures. Some nasal fractures can lead to problems in breathing, or a crooked or deformed nose if left untreated. The patient can sustain a fracture in any area in the nasal “bony pyramid” which is the pyramid-shaped bony structure that projects out from the face.

Different types of osteotomy (the practice of resetting and rejoining bones) are used to repair different types of nasal fractures.

Greenstick Fracture

Greenstick fractures occur along the edges of the nasal bones. These types of fractures are seen mostly in children whose bones are softer and still developing. A child’s bones are very flexible. Therefore, Greenstick fractures are usually partial instead of completely fractured bones.

Saddle Deformity

These nasal fractures are more severe which may lead to the nasal bridge and septum collapsing and becoming concave into the face. This leads to the formation of a saddle-like shape which is noticeable when the face is seen in profile.

This deformity manifests because of acute facial trauma or even due to the disintegration of cartilage after prolonged snorting of drugs. The treatment in such cases will require the rhinoplasty surgeon to use rib bone tissue from the cartilage or a donor to recreate the bridge and septum.

Comminuted Fracture

Comminuted fractures occur when the bone breaks into three or more pieces.  The rhinoplasty surgeon will take out the small bone pieces which can lead to serious complications if left untreated. The nasal bones are aligned into position as well. This condition occurs more commonly in older patients who have weaker bones and experience a nasal fracture.

Le Fort Fractures

At times, severe facial trauma may cause damage to the bones that lie behind the nose (maxillae). The maxillae comprise two bones that make up the palate and upper jaw as well as provide support to nasal structures. This fracture is called Le Fort fracture. These fractures are classified into three types.

Le Fort I fracture may occur in a horizontal position causing damage to the jawline and nostril. Le Fort II fracture leads to damage to the maxillae below the eye sockets around the bridge of the nose. This fracture may extend from the nasal bridge to the mouth corners in an inverted V-shape.

Le Fort III fracture may impact the orbital sockets. These sockets are the bony structure surrounding the eyes. Le Fort fractures are a serious condition, and the patient should seek immediate treatment to prevent any long-term damage to the brain or the palate.

Nasal polyps can occur in many different colors and sizes. They typically range between pink to brownish-yellow in color. Early on, the polyps look like teardrops.

But on becoming larger, they appear similar to grapes on a stem. Polyps can develop in either one or both nostrils simultaneously and may grow alone or in clusters.

The Process

Polyp clusters or large polyps can cause issues in breathing and impact the sense of smell. They can also block sinuses leading to problems such as recurrent infections. The surgeon will examine the patient’s nasal polyps and then recommend an appropriate treatment plan.

Board certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Farah Naz Khan provides rhinoplasty to patients in Dallas, Texas, and surrounding locations.

Who may get nasal polyps?

Between four and 40 percent of the population have nasal polyps. They occur almost two to four times more commonly in men than in women. Individuals with polyps usually develop them in their youth or middle-age.

Polyps tend to occur in people with recurrent sinus infections, asthma, and allergies. Children with cystic fibrosis are also more susceptible to polyp development.

Diagnosis

An experienced surgeon can diagnose nasal polyps simply by inquiring about the patient’s symptoms and assessing their nasal condition. The surgeon will view the nasal polyps within the nose with a lighted device.

To confirm the diagnosis, the surgeon may order the below mentioned tests:

• CT Scan
• Nasal Endoscopy
• Cystic fibrosis
• Skin prick allergy test

Treatment

Steroid Nose Drops or Spray

To treat nasal polyps, the surgeon may prescribe a steroid spray or nasal drops to the patient. This will help reduce the inflammation in the polyps. This is a common treatment for patients who have one or a cluster of small polyps. The side effects of the treatment include:

• Headache
• Nosebleeds
• Sore throat

Steroid Pills

If the patient has larger polyps or severe inflammation, they may require steroid pills. The doctor may prescribe the patient steroid pills by themselves or along with a nasal spray.

While steroids are very effective in reducing the size of the polyps, they may present side-effects such as weight gain. The patient should only take these pills for a few weeks and not a longer period.

Other Medications

Sometimes the surgeon may prescribe other medications to treat any underlying conditions that may be leading to aggravation in the swelling. For instance, they may prescribe antihistamines to treat allergies, antifungal drugs to treat fungal infections, and antibiotics to treat bacterial conditions.

Surgery

If the polyps are substantial in size, or the patient is not responding to other treatments, the surgeon will recommend a surgical procedure for the treatment of the nasal polyps.

Polypectomy

Polypectomy is a common treatment to excise polyps. The patient can undergo this procedure under local or general anesthesia. In this procedure, the surgeon places a long, narrow pipe connected to a camera inside the patient’s nose and sinuses.

If a patient is unhappy with the results of their breast augmentation plastic surgery or develops implant complications, they may need breast implant removal surgery.

At the time of the initial consultation, the surgeon will inform the patient on various aspects of the breast implant removal surgery, including its approximate costs.

Khan Plastic Surgery, led by prudent board certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Farah Naz Khan, provides breast implant removal to patients in Dallas, Texas, and surrounding communities in the majestic Lone Star State.

Cost Variations

Breast implant removal costs can vary as depending on the complexity and length of the surgery. Implant removal surgery may sometimes be more complex than the primary breast augmentation procedure, and as a result, may cost more than the primary surgery.

If there was an error on the part of the surgeon, they might perform the implant removal surgery at no cost. The patient should review their practice policy on this aspect for more clarity before they go ahead with a breast implant procedure.

The cost of the implant removal procedure will also depend on whether the patient seeks an implant replacement along with the removal. Breast implant removal (without replacement) usually involves a breast lift which will increase the procedure costs.

If the patient seeks an implant replacement, the procedure will be relatively simpler but will involve the cost of the new implants.

Breast Implant Removal with Lift

Over time, breast implants can stretch the skin tissue leading to elasticity loss. For patients choosing implant removal at a later stage, a breast lift cosmetic surgery may be necessary.

Only an experienced plastic surgeon should perform this procedure for desirable outcomes after the implant removal. In case a breast removal procedure is done along with a breast lift, the surgeon’s fee, surgical facility costs, and recovery costs may be slightly higher.

Other Financial Factors

Breast implant removal costs may differ between practices depending on their geographical location. The real estate and overhead costs are typically higher in main urban centers, popular tourist destinations, and coastal cities. In these locations, the average costs of goods and services, including plastic surgery costs, will usually be higher.

The breast implant removal surgery will include the charges of an anesthesiologist or anesthetic nurse if the procedure is performed under general anesthesia. The credentials and experience of the professionals will determine the charges.

The implant removal procedure may take place at a hospital, an accredited surgical center, or a private surgical suite. Each venue will have associated costs and benefits.

The breast implant removal surgery will also include pre and post-operative expenses such as medical exams, mammograms, prescription drugs, follow-up consultations, and surgical accessories. These seemingly minor expenses can add up to a significant sum and should be a part of the cost estimate.

Insurance and Financing

Breast implant removal is elective plastic surgery and patients will likely not receive insurance coverage for this procedure. Patients can consider financing options such as medical care financing firms, bank loans, credit cards, or private loans.

A woman may consider breast implant removal surgery at any stage after the breast augmentation plastic surgery due to cosmetic, emotional, or health reasons. When seeking a breast implant removal procedure, the woman should be in good health and not pregnant or nursing.

The accomplished Khan Plastic Surgery, led by judicious board certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Farah Naz Khan, provides breast implant removal to patients in Dallas, Texas, and other neighborhoods and suburbs in this outstanding part of the nation.

Removal due to Incorrect Implants

The primary breast augmentation cosmetic surgery may not always create the outcomes that a patient desires. This may happen due to various reasons such as incorrect implant size, type, or shape.

Following the implant surgery (in a rare case) the woman may feel that she was happier with her natural breast shape, or that the new larger breasts are hindering her ability to perform certain activities.

Women with such issues may make suitable candidates for breast implant removal surgery. Sometimes the woman may not be satisfied with the size, type, or shape of her implants.

She may find the implants to be excessively large or too small, or the shape or profile may be unsuitable. In these types of cases, the woman may be an ideal candidate for breast implant removal surgery as well. After the implant removal, the patient may sometimes choose to get new, more desirable implants.

The FDA had approved silicone breast implants a few years after they approved saline implants. But today they are more popular than saline implants due to their superior touch and feel. Some patients may seek the removal of saline implants and the replacement of these with silicone implants.

Surgical Complications Leading to Removal

Sometimes a woman may experience complications associated with breast implants after their breast augmentation surgery. This may occur at any stage after the surgery.

In the hands of an experienced plastic surgeon, the risk of complications is significantly minimized. However, complications may still occur even many years after the primary procedure.

Capsular contracture happens when the scar tissue surrounding the implant become tighter. In such cases, the patient will need to undergo scar tissue or implant removal surgery.

They may also choose an implant replacement procedure after the removal. Implants may rupture, leak, or deflate due to natural wear and tear or defects in the implant.

A patient may experience implant rippling due to the thinning of the skin across the breast or hormonal changes. At times, the breast implant may move from their original position to create a lopsided appearance. These kinds of conditions may require the patient to undergo implant removal surgery.

Other Candidates for Implant Removal

Other considerations may make some women candidates for breast removal surgery. A cancer diagnosis may require a woman to undergo breast implant removal to be able to receive the cancer treatment more effectively. Changes in lifestyle or aesthetic preferences may also cause some women to seek breast implant removal surgery.

Rhinoplasty cosmetic surgery can be used to treat enlarged turbinates. Turbinates are thin, long bones that protrude outwards from the sides of the septum within the nasal cavity. These turbinates appear at tiny, curled knobs at the ends.

There are three kinds of turbinates. Superior turbinates are located in the upper portion of the nose between the nose and eyes. Middle turbinates are found in the middle portion of the nose while inferior turbinates lay just above the nostrils.

During the pre-operative consultation, the surgeon will assess the patient’s condition and determine if they are a candidate for enlarged turbinates surgery.

Khan Plastic Surgery, led by board certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Farah Naz Khan, provides rhinoplasty to patients in Dallas, Texas, and surrounding communities.

Turbinate Rhinoplasty

Turbinate rhinoplasty helps address turbinates that have become swollen due to allergies or irritants. Sometimes, a turbinate may become constricted because a deviated septum pushes it to one side.

As a result, the turbinate in the other airway in the nose becomes bigger to compensate for the constricted turbinate. This leads to further breathing problems.

Some surgeons prefer treating enlarged turbinates by removing tissue to reduce their size while others do not eliminate any tissue. Rather, these surgeons break the turbinates in the outward direction.

Turbinates moisten and warm the air that enters the nasal airways facilitating correct breathing. At times, turbinate removal leads to a painful condition called atrophic rhinitis.

But fracturing a turbinate outwards and away from the septum and setting it in place helps create a larger passageway. This enhances the process of breathing and enables the turbinates to function properly.

Surgical Procedure

Various surgical techniques can help reduce turbinate size. Turbinate resection and turbinate reduction is the surgical procedure to shrink enlarged turbinates.

The patient can undergo this procedure in the surgeon’s office or an operating room. In general, septoplasty and turbinate resection are undertaken together.

The complete removal of a turbinate can adversely impact the overall function of the turbinates leading to a very crusty and dry nose. Sometimes, the turbinate tissue re-grows after the plastic surgery, which may require another procedure. This is still a better option in comparison to full turbinate removal.

Some of the techniques reduce the turbinate size without involving the elimination of turbinate tissue or bone. These techniques include coblation, cauterization, and radiofrequency reduction among others.

These procedures involve warming a portion of the turbinate via a specialized device. In some time, the turbinate will constrict due to scar tissue formation because of the process of heating.

Alternate procedures can help remove a portion of the turbinate. It is crucial to allow sufficient turbinate to remain in the nose in such procedures. This will enable the remaining turbinate to warm and moisten the air entering the nose.

Submucosal resection is a standard technique to treated enlarged turbinates. This method involves leaving behind the turbinate lining while the turbinate “stuffing” is taken out.

Rhinoplasty cosmetic surgery can be used to correct the common problem of a deviated septum. The surgeon will determine the exact nature and extent of the deviated septum before creating a customized surgical plan to correct it.

Khan Plastic Surgery, led by successful board certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Farah Naz Khan, provides rhinoplasty to patients in Dallas, Texas, and other towns and cities in this region of the nation.

What is Septum Deviation?

The septum bifurcates the nasal cavity into two narrow airways starting at the upper nasal area where it connects to the nostrils. The septum consists of various bone and cartilage sections. The lower part of the septum lies on the anterior nasal spine. This is a supportive bone that can be felt in the region where the nose connects to the upper lip.

Septum deviation is the development or shifting of the septum to one side of the nasal cavity rather than dividing it into two identical airways. The septum may bend to one side developing into an S-shape or bend in the shape of a bow creating a C-shape. These types of deviated septum obstruct airflow slowly damaging the fragile nasal tissues.

The surgeon will reshape either the cartilaginous lower portion of the nose or the bony upper portion of the septum located atop the nose. At times, the septum may move off the anterior spine in a condition known as a caudal septal deviation. For such patients, the surgeon will correct the movement of the septum and relocate its base to the anterior nasal spine.

Some individuals may have a deviated septum since birth while others develop it due to a nasal injury. This can make breathing challenging and also cause recurring facial pain and nosebleeds. Rhinoplasty plastic surgery is a proven way to correct a deviated septum.

Septoplasty Procedure

A septoplasty procedure typically takes between 30 and 90 minutes to complete. The time taken for the surgery depends on the complexity of the deviated septum. The surgeon and patient can discuss beforehand if the septoplasty will be performed under local or general anesthesia.

In general, the surgeon will place an incision in one location on the nose to access the septum. After that, they will ease the deviated septum to the right position. They will remove barriers such as cartilage and unwanted bone fragments. Eventually, the surgeon will reposition the mucous membrane.

The patient may require sutures to ensure that the septum and membrane stay in place. At times, using cotton to pack the nose is enough to help the septum and membrane remain in their place.

Recovery

The surgeon will perform septoplasty on an outpatient basis unless a major complication occurs. Therefore, the patient can go home on the day of the procedure itself. The nose will be swollen, painful, and stuffed with cotton to prevent bleeding. The packing will be removed within one or two days after the surgery.

Breast implant removal plastic surgery offers a solution to women who develop implant complications, are unhappy with the outcomes of the breast augmentation surgery, or have undergone a change in their aesthetic preferences since the primary implant surgery.

In comparison to the primary implant surgery, breast implant removal can be more complicated. This makes it vital for a patient to select a highly experienced and well-trained surgeon for this surgery.

Board certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Farah Naz Khan provides breast implant removal surgery to patients in Dallas, Texas and surrounding communities and towns in the poignant Lone Star State.

What to Expect during the Surgery?

The breast implant removal process will begin with the surgeon evaluating the reason for the implant complications and devising an individualized surgical plan.

In many cases, the plastic surgeon may advise the patient to undergo a breast lift surgery with the implant removal procedure. In cases where the implants have stretched the breast skin over a long duration, a breast lift can restore tauter, younger looking breasts.

Breast implant removal is usually performed as an outpatient surgery and the patient may receive intravenous sedation or general anesthesia. The surgeon will access the implant by placing an incision in the same location where the primary incisions were made. This helps minimize new scarring. The scar tissue is usually excised at the time of the implant removal.

Saline Implants Removal

The surgeon will carefully examine the original implant and surrounding tissue for inflammation, rupture, leakage, or infection prior to the cosmetic surgery. Saline implants comprise a saline solution which is entirely safe for the body. The surgeon may deflate the implant prior to taking it out to make the procedure less invasive.

After removing the implant, the surgeon will typically eliminate the scar tissue that has developed due to the primary surgery. In case the patient chooses to undergo implant replacement with new implants, this will be undertaken at the same time as well.

At times, the implant removal may be performed with a breast lift procedure. Saline implant removal typically takes under an hour. However, the patient will have to remain at the surgical facility under observation for a few hours.

Silicone Implants Removal

For silicone implant removal, the plastic surgeon will evaluate the implant for signs of damage or rupture prior to removing it. This helps minimize any risks related to silicone implant removal.

The removal procedure may be less complicated in case the implant’s outer shell is textured or foam covered. Sometimes the surgeon will need to remove the surrounding muscle and tissue in addition to the implant.

The time taken to perform the silicone implant removal surgery depends on whether the patient is undergoing other surgeries such as implant replacement, scar revision, or breast lift simultaneously with the implant removal.

The incision size for silicone implant removal is relatively larger than in the case of saline implants as the deflation of the implant is not possible. The recovery period in the case of saline as well as silicone implant removal is around one week.

Breast surgery is an intricate plastic surgery procedure. The breast surgeon will need to ensure that the symmetry and proportion of the breasts are improved during this procedure to offer the patient simultaneously safe and excellent results.

It is vital for patients to select a cosmetic surgeon carefully. Undergoing breast surgery in the hands of an unqualified or inexperienced surgeon could lead to unwanted outcomes, complications, and further expenditure on a revisions surgery.

The patient should be mindful of several aspects when choosing a plastic surgeon.

In case the patient seeks a specific breast procedure or surgical technique, they should choose a surgeon who is an expert in these specific procedures. Successful board certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Farah Naz Khan provides breast surgery to patients in Dallas, Texas and surrounding locations and towns in this part of the US.

Why Choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon?

The successful Dr. Khan is board certified by the renowned American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS). The ABPS is the single plastic surgery board that the prestigious American Board of Medical Specialties recognizes. The board has a strict selection process and certifies only a small number of surgeons each year.

Upon selecting a board certified surgeon, a patient can be assured that the surgeon would have undergone a specific minimum number of years of training in plastic surgery.

ABPS certified plastic surgeons usually invest significantly in best practices and quality standards, adopt the latest surgical techniques, pursue continuing education, and follow the latest safety protocols providing patients safe and beautiful results.

Focus on Customization

The dependable Dr. Khan strongly believes in individualizing procedures such as breast cosmetic surgery to address the unique requirements of the patient. Every patient has a different anatomy. The surgeon should keep in mind the patient’s unique anatomy and personal goals while devising a breast surgery plan.

Dr. Khan does not follow an off-the-rack or cookie-cutter approach to surgery spending time to evaluate the patient’s health condition, breast structure, and cosmetic desires. She will then develop a customized and comprehensive surgical plan based on this information.

The astute Dr. Khan strikes a fine balance between the principles of art and science to create outcomes that are not only cosmetically beautiful but also safe and sustainable.

Personal Qualities and Attitude

The cosmetic outcomes and patient safety are crucial considerations in breast surgery. But it is also essential that the patient feels at ease with their surgeon. Undergoing breast plastic surgery is a personal journey for the patient.

This makes it important for the woman to choose a surgeon who respects her privacy and cosmetic desires. At the time of the pre-op consultation, the surgeon should understand from the patient the exact outcomes they seek from the breast surgery.

In case the patient feels that the doctor is adopting a standard approach instead of accounting for their unique needs, she may want to reconsider her choice of cosmetic surgeon. On top of this, a responsible surgeon will never put pressure on the patient to receive a more invasive surgery than she actually requires.

Breast cosmetic surgery can modify the shape and size of breasts, or give them a slight lift according to the patient’s aesthetic choices. Some patients may require breast reconstruction surgery after a mastectomy.

The surgeon will explain the various steps involved in breast surgery during the pre-op consultation. When patients understand more about the procedure, they usually feel more confident and reassured.

Board certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Farah Naz Khan provides breast surgery to patients in Dallas, Texas and surrounding communities.

Anesthesia

In most cases, the plastic surgeon undertakes the breast surgery with the patient under general anesthesia. The anesthesiologist will make the patient sleep and help them remain unconscious throughout the procedure using either intravenous (IV) or inhaled sedation. The patient will be taken out of anesthesia after the surgery is complete.

Breast Augmentation

The breast augmentation procedure involves the placement of implants over or beneath the pectoralis chest muscle. The surgeon will place an incision in the armpit (axilla), lower breast, or areola. Breast implant surgery may involve the use of endoscopes.

A breast implant is a silicone shell containing saline (a salt water solution) or silicone gel. A woman may determine her ideal size by trying on trial implants.

At present, saline-filled implants and silicone gel implants do not have any usage restrictions, except for the minimum age requirements as specified by the FDA.

Breast Reduction

Breast reduction plastic surgery, also known as reduction mammoplasty, is a procedure that removes excess fat, skin, and glandular tissue. Scarring can be significant in this type of procedure. But the nipple-areola and normal breast sensation, and milk production are typically unaffected.

Potential side effects include lumpiness and pain from scar tissue and the inability to breastfeed. This breast surgery decreases the breast size and contour but preserves its sensation and function. Women usually report a dramatic improvement in their function following breast reduction.

Breast Lift

Some women may have skin that is not strong enough to support the breast weight causing the breasts to become saggy. In this condition, known as ptosis, there is excessive skin in comparison to breast tissue. The excess skin must be removed to perform a breast lift or mastopexy.

Breast Reconstruction

A breast reconstruction surgery aims to restore the shape, size, and contour of the breast(s). Furthermore, the nipple-areola area is also recreated. The breast loses normal sensation and the ability to breastfeed when the milk glands and ducts, or sensory nerves have been excised or seriously damaged.

In this surgery, the volume and contour of the breast can be restored using the patient’s own tissue or implants. In case an implant is placed, it is sized to match the remaining breast. The woman’s own tissue can also be used to recreate the breast.

Closing the Incisions

The surgeon will cautiously seal the incisions after the breast surgery. Some surgeons use traditional sutures to close the incisions while other use absorbable ones. The surgeon may place temporary drain tubes in the incision areas for a few days to accumulate excess fluid.
