Comprehensive Results
If implant removal or exchange wouldn’t be enough to deliver the results you desire, our plastic surgeon in Reno, NV, may be able to combine your procedure with a breast lift. This combination procedure would correct the concerns you have with your implants and raise your breasts into a perkier, more youthful position. Of course, he'll only combine procedures if it's safe to do so.
Find Stunning Results With Implant Removal or Exchange
While you may have been happy with your previous results, implants can shift over time due to factors like weight gain or loss, having a baby, or the natural aging process.

We invite you to explore our gallery of patient cases to see how beautiful the possibilities can be.

“I was really pleased with my experience with Dr. Murphy's office. I traveled from Northwest Montana to have my second breast augmentation, 10 years after my initial surgery. I was initially impressed with his gallery and was even more pleased with my own results. He is a wonderful surgeon and delivered the desired results. I passed on seeing a surgeon within the next county to see Dr. Murphy and I'm so glad I did.” — Nicole, 5-Star Review
The Reasons Behind the Removal
You Need New Implants
It's possible that you'll need to replace your breast implants every decade or two. Our plastic surgeon can guide you through your options, remove your old breast implants, and place new ones. He can also rejuvenate the area with a breast lift if you desire.
You Want to Change Your Implants
Even over the past 10 years, breast implants have changed a lot. There are newer, safer, and more lifelike options available to choose from. If you just want to change the size, shape, or style of your implants, Dr. James E. Murphy can help with that, too.
You Weren't Satisfied With Your Surgeon

We invite you to explore our gallery of patient cases to see how beautiful the possibilities can be.
You Don't Want Implants Anymore
Even if you used to love your implants, you're not stuck with them if that changes. Some patients find sleeping a bit more difficult, while others want a smoother silhouette.

How Does Breast Implant Removal Go?
In addition to removing your implants, Dr. James E. Murphy can also address scar tissue inside the breasts during the procedure. At our Reno practice, the process works something like this.
“Met with Dr. Murphy for a consultation on breast implant exchange. He has great bedside manner and makes you feel extremely comfortable and answers all your questions with no rush. I like how he gave the answer to my questions but also gave me his own thoughts. I will definitely be coming to Dr. Murphy.” — Kayle, 5-Star Review
