Dr. Ryan Stanton is renowned for his expert sculpting of the feminine hourglass figure, creating body contours that leave a lasting impression. Whether through his signature butt and hip augmentation procedures or breast enhancements, Dr. Stanton understands that your body is a work of art that should reflect your unique desires. But what happens when your current breast implants no longer meet your expectations? Whether you’re dealing with complications, desiring a change in size, or simply want a fresh new look, breast implant exchange might be the perfect solution.
Breast implant exchange is a popular procedure that allows women to replace their existing implants with a new set. It’s an excellent option for those who want to upgrade, downsize, or switch to a different implant type or style while maintaining a natural and proportional look. Here’s everything you need to know about breast implant exchange and why Dr. Stanton’s approach ensures you’ll love the results.
Why Do Women Choose Breast Implant Exchange?
Over time, your body changes, and so can your aesthetic desires. Whether you want to enhance your appearance, resolve issues with your current implants, or simply achieve a more natural look, breast implant exchange can offer the perfect solution. Here are some of the most common reasons women choose to undergo breast implant exchange:
- Changing Size: Perhaps your initial breast augmentation no longer aligns with your body shape, or you’ve simply changed your mind about the size of your breasts. Implant exchange allows you to upgrade or downsize to achieve your ideal proportions.
- Implant Complications: Over time, implants can develop complications like rupture, deflation, or capsular contracture (the hardening of scar tissue around the implant). Exchange allows you to resolve these issues and restore a more natural-looking appearance.
- Desire for a Different Implant Type: Some women may choose to switch from saline to silicone implants (or vice versa) to achieve a more natural feel and look. Others might opt for newer implant technology, such as cohesive gel implants, to improve both aesthetic and functional results.
- Aesthetic Adjustments: Your preferences and lifestyle may change as your body does. If you’re looking to adjust your breast shape, profile, or overall appearance, implant exchange is a great way to achieve a refreshed look without the need for complete removal.
Whatever your reason may be, breast implant exchange provides a safe and effective way to enhance your appearance with beautiful, natural results.
What’s Involved in the Breast Implant Exchange Procedure?
Breast implant exchange is a relatively straightforward procedure, but the details can vary depending on your goals and the current state of your implants. Dr. Stanton will evaluate your current implants, any related complications, and your aesthetic goals before recommending the best approach.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Initial Consultation: Stanton will take the time to understand your motivations for the exchange and perform a thorough examination of your breast tissue and current implants. Together, you’ll decide on the new implant size, type, and any additional procedures you may want, such as a breast lift or reshaping.
- The Surgery: The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia, and Dr. Stanton will remove your existing implants through the same incision used during your original breast augmentation, ensuring minimal scarring. If necessary, the surrounding tissue or skin will be adjusted to fit your new implants.
- Recovery: Recovery time varies depending on the complexity of the procedure, but most women can return to work within a week. Expect some swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, but these symptoms will subside as you heal. Dr. Stanton will provide detailed aftercare instructions to support your recovery and help you achieve the best results.

What Should I Expect After Breast Implant Exchange?
The results of breast implant exchange depend on several factors, including your natural breast tissue, the type of implants you choose, and whether additional procedures like a breast lift are performed. Most women experience a significant improvement in breast shape, symmetry, and overall appearance. However, the final results may take several months to settle as the swelling subsides fully.
If you’re replacing your implants with a different type or size, you may notice a softer, more natural feel, especially if you’re switching to silicone gel implants. A breast lift can also be performed at the same time to address any loss of elasticity or sagging that may have occurred since your initial procedure.
Dr. Stanton’s goal is always to create a result that enhances your natural contours and reflects your personal aesthetic preferences. Whether you’re opting for a subtle change or a more dramatic transformation, he’ll ensure that your results are balanced and harmonious with your body.
Am I a Good Candidate for Breast Implant Exchange?
If you’re no longer satisfied with your breast implants or are experiencing complications, breast implant exchange might be the right choice for you. Ideal candidates for the procedure include women who:
- Are unhappy with the size, shape, or feel of their current implants
- Have developed complications, such as capsular contracture, rupture, or deflation
- Want to change implant types (for example, from saline to silicone)
- Desire a more natural appearance or wish to adjust the size of their breasts
Dr. Stanton recommends scheduling a personalized consultation to determine the best course of action based on your individual needs and goals. Whether you’re looking to refresh your appearance or resolve issues with your current implants, he’ll guide you through every step of the process.

FAQS – Beverly Hills Breast Implant Exchange
Breast implants are designed to be long-lasting, but they may need to be replaced over time due to natural changes in your body or wear and tear. While modern implants are durable, some women choose to undergo an exchange every 10 to 20 years to maintain their aesthetic results. Your implants should be regularly monitored for any potential issues such as rupture or capsular contracture.
In most cases, breast implant exchange is considered a cosmetic procedure and is not covered by insurance. However, if your exchange is required due to complications, such as rupture or infection, your insurance may provide coverage. Dr. Stanton’s team can assist you in understanding your insurance options and helping you navigate the financial aspects of your procedure.
Absolutely! One of the most common reasons for implant exchange is to change the size of your implants. Whether you’re looking to go larger or smaller, Dr. Stanton will help you select the correct size that suits your body and achieves your aesthetic goals.
It’s not uncommon for women to need a breast lift along with their implant exchange, especially if the skin has lost some of its elasticity or if they’ve had their implants for many years. A breast lift can restore a youthful, perky appearance and enhance the overall shape of the breasts. Dr. Stanton will assess whether a lift is needed during your consultation and discuss your options with you.
Most women can return to work within 1 to 2 weeks after their implant exchange, but full recovery may take several months. Swelling, bruising, and discomfort are normal and will subside over time. Dr. Stanton will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure that you heal quickly and effectively.
