As the number of patients who have breast implants continues to rise, so does the number of those who request breast implant removal without replacement. There is little in the current scientific literature describing total intact capsulectomy and simultaneous mastopexy procedures.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Here, the authors present their current method using the mammary imbrication lift and fixation technique after explant and total capsulectomy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Between 2016 and 2021, a total of 64 patients (mean age: 42.95 years; range, 27-78 years) underwent the described mammary imbrication lift and fixation technique with bilateral breast implant removal and total capsulectomy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Mean follow-up was 6.5 months (range, 1-36 months). Postoperative complications included minor cellulitis in 1 patient (1.6%), late onset hematoma with infection in 1 patient (1.6%), fat necrosis and pulmonary embolism in 1 patient with prior history of thromboembolic events (1.6%), and breast scar irregularity in 4 patients (6.2%) who required subsequent minor scar revision or steroid injections. Two patients (1.6%) underwent revision surgery with bilateral breast fat grafting to improve shape and add volume.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The mammary imbrication lift and fixation technique described here can safely and simultaneously be performed with a total intact capsulectomy and explant procedure.
