In this panel recording from Plastic Surgery The Meeting 2024, panelists explore key takeaways beyond the technicalities of explantation. This includes the idea that often, for the explantation patient, less is more, and you don't need to do everything to get a beautiful result. Also, there are different reasons patients desire breast implant removal, and your encounter should be tailored based on the specific motivation of the patient.
