Breast Implant Removal Case #553

The patient, a 57-year-old female, decided to undergo a breast implant removal procedure in Little Rock due to health concerns related to her previous breast augmentation in 2001. The decision was not an easy one; it was driven by a thorough evaluation of the potential risks and benefits. Her implants, 470cc and 490cc saline ones placed submuscular, had been a part of her life for two decades. However, she valued her health above aesthetics and, backed by the counsel of a qualified medical health professional, opted for the removal.

The patient underwent bilateral implant removal with total capsulectomy (en bloc) performed by Eric J Wright, M.D., an accomplished board-certified plastic surgeon in Little Rock. A month after the breast implant removal, she was content with the results. Her skin tone, light, and ethnicity, white, did not pose any challenges during the procedure or recovery period. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, she bounced back conveniently soon after the surgery, and her health-related concerns were successfully addressed.

Eric J Wright, M.D., known for prioritizing patient education and informed decision-making, helped steer the patient through the decision-making process. With experience from institutions like the University of Arkansas, Stanford University Hospital, and Massachusetts General Hospital, he used the latest techniques to ensure the best outcome for this patient. Dr. Wright, who is fluent in English and Spanish, combines his international medical experience with his time serving as an Assistant Professor of Surgery at UAMS to provide exceptional service, as seen with this patient's breast implant removal in Little Rock at Wright Plastic Surgery, PA.
