A Return to Your Natural Shape
By removing your breast implants, you can relieve discomfort, restore confidence, and bring balance back to your natural form.
Feeling dissatisfied with your current breast implants is commonly due to physical discomfort or aesthetic changes over time. Concerns like firmness, rippling, or asymmetry can disrupt self-assurance and comfort. Through our breast implant removal in South Barrington, Dr. Renee Burke’s compassionate and precise approach helps you feel renewed, balanced, and confident in your own body.
The Breast Implant Removal Process
Consultation
We start with a comprehensive consultation where Dr. Burke reviews your medical history, current implants, and concerns. You discuss your desired outcome and learn about necessary surgical techniques, always receiving the education you need to feel confident in your treatment plan.
Procedure
Dr. Burke performs your removal under local or general anesthesia based on your individual case. The procedure may include capsulectomy if scar tissue surrounds the implant or if it has ruptured. She pays close attention to symmetry, contour, and natural alignment, helping your chest appear balanced and feel comfortable.
Recovery
You rest while your body heals. Avoid lifting, pushing, or pulling anything over 10 pounds for 2 weeks. Do not drive while taking prescription pain medication, but we encourage gentle movement to support blood circulation and comfort. You should notice a lighter, more natural feeling as swelling subsides and healing progresses.
How We Perform Our Surgeries
Precision
Each step requires careful technique to safely remove the implants while protecting surrounding tissues and aesthetic balance.

Our team creates a reassuring environment where your goals and comfort remain our focus before, during, and after surgery.
Pre-Care Instructions
Discuss current prescriptions, supplements, and allergies with Dr. Burke. Some medications may need to be paused or adjusted before surgery.
Refrain from smoking and consuming alcohol in the days leading up to surgery to support healing and reduce complications.
Post-Care Instructions
Surgical sites must be clean and dry at all times. Our detailed guidance prevents irritation and encourages a smooth healing process.
Limit physical exertion and avoid lifting or stretching the upper body until cleared by Dr. Burke. Short walks can promote gentle recovery.
Attend all follow-up visits so Dr. Burke can monitor your healing, answer questions, and ensure optimal surgical outcomes.
