Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Karen Horton, was recently featured in an article with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). As a San Francisco-based breast augmentation expert and member of ASPS, Dr. Horton was contacted to discuss today’s trends in Cosmetic Surgery; more specifically the rise in popularity of Revision Breast Surgery and breast implant removal.

The article discusses how popular celebrity supermodel, Chrissy Teigen, recently took to social media, as she often does, to let her fans know that she recently had surgery to remove her breast implants. One of the main reasons she expressed wanting the surgery was to be able to fit in clothes more comfortably. Dr. Horton explains that, like many cosmetic trends over the years, Plastic Surgery is seeing an increase in women “choosing to remove their breast implants and to adopt a more subtle, natural and athletic look to their breasts.”

Dr. Horton further explains that implant removal is often performed in conjunction with a Breast Lift. For women seeking to keep a perkier breast shape, a breast lift can help to tighten the skin that may have lost elasticity once the implants are removed. Read the full article here.
