Your relationship with your body can evolve over time, and the choices that once felt exactly right may eventually give way to new priorities and preferences. For many people, that shift includes reconsidering breast implants — whether due to physical discomfort, lifestyle changes, concerns about implant health, or simply a desire to return to a more natural silhouette. Breast implant removal in Washington DC is a safe, well-established breast procedure, and it is one that deserves to be approached with the same care and respect as any other cosmetic decision. At Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery, we are here to support you in whatever direction feels right for you.
Dr. Tsion Berhane is a double board-certified cosmetic surgeon who brings 25 years of experience and a deeply compassionate approach to every patient interaction. She understands that choosing to have implants removed is a meaningful decision, and she will take the time to listen fully before making any recommendations. At our practice, you will always be treated with warmth and dignity — because we believe that beauty is an inside-out process, and that the best outcomes begin with feeling truly heard.
Breast implant removal, sometimes called explant surgery, involves the surgical extraction of breast implants that were previously placed. Depending on your situation and goals, Dr. Berhane may also discuss whether a capsulectomy — removal of the scar tissue capsule that forms around every implant — is appropriate for you. In some cases, patients choose to have a breast lift performed at the same time to address any changes in breast shape or position that occur after the implants are removed.
For patients in Washington DC exploring implant removal options, a thorough consultation is the best starting point for understanding what your procedure might look like.
There are many reasons someone might decide that implant removal in Washington DC is the right step. Some patients experience symptoms they believe may be related to their implants, such as fatigue, joint discomfort, or other systemic concerns. Others find that their aesthetic preferences have simply changed over the years, or that their implants have reached a point where replacement or removal is medically advisable.
Whatever your reason, it is valid, and Dr. Berhane will approach your consultation without judgment — only with information, options, and genuine support.
Recovery from explant surgery is generally less demanding than the original augmentation procedure, though it varies depending on whether additional work, such as a capsulectomy or lift, is performed at the same time. Most patients experience some soreness and swelling in the days following surgery, with a return to light activity typically possible within one to two weeks.
Dr. Berhane and our Washington DC team provide attentive follow-up care throughout your recovery, making sure you feel confident and well-supported as your body heals and adjusts.
Whatever has brought you to this decision, you deserve a surgical team that will listen carefully and guide you with expertise and compassion.
