Implant removal before and after photos

Rae had her breast implants removed and had her breasts augmented using lipofilling. She chose Esthetisch Centrum Jan van Goyen, where the surgery was performed by Gijs van Selms. Rae is happy with the result and still stands by her decision. Today, she shares her experience with this procedure, the doctor, and our clinic. How long had you had breast implants? “After years of being dissatisfied with my AA breasts, I had my breasts enlarged in 2015. I was young, insecure, and wanted to look more feminine. After the surgery, I felt fantastic, and it was also 'necessary' because I had to find a way to work on my self-confidence.‘ Why did you decide to have your implants removed? ’After walking around with prostheses for six years, I eventually considered having them removed. In my eyes, the implants never became supple and looked unnatural. Moreover, I ultimately found them too impractical for my lifestyle. I was further along in my life and ready to embrace my natural body.” How did you end up with plastic surgeon Gijs van Selms? “I thought my breasts were too big, but I noticed that I found it very daunting to go back to being completely flat. In 2020, I looked into the option of having my implants removed and filling my breasts with lipofilling. I went back to the clinic where my implants had been placed, but they found it strange that I wanted to have them removed. After a few years of quiet reflection, saving up, and doing some research, I read about Gijs van Selms via Google. I read that he is one of the experts in the field of explantation and breast corrections.” What did you think of the first consultation? “Very pleasant! I felt welcome, heard, and appreciated. Lipofilling was possible, but I had to promise Van Selms that I would gain weight. This was no punishment for me and was also achievable. It didn't take long before I signed the quote and the surgery was scheduled.” Come by for a consultation too. You are very welcome for a no-obligation consultation with one of our plastic surgeons.

Everyone was friendly, and even though it went quite fast, I feel like everyone took the time for me. The room was clean and cool, but the atmosphere was pleasant!” Can you tell us something about your recovery? “I recovered exceptionally quickly. Everything hurt and felt bruised, but within three days I no longer needed painkillers. On the second day after the surgery, I could shower by myself and resume light activities without too much difficulty or pain. After six weeks, I could do everything again.” What do you think of the result? “Aesthetically speaking, I think it looks better, but I also notice that I can move more easily. It also feels much lighter when I breathe, and I can sleep comfortably on my stomach again!” What would you like to say to others considering having their implants removed? “Above all, do what feels right. Take your time to explore the options and visit multiple clinics.” What have you learned from your experiences over the past few years? “I have learned that my ideal body is one I feel comfortable in. With the experience I have gained, I hope to increase my self-acceptance. In any case, I try to be kind to my own body and I won't be so quick to compare it to other people's anymore!” Rae had her breast implants removed and her breasts filled with her own body fat using lipofilling by plastic surgeon Dr. Gijs van Selms.

In the spring of 2023, Leonie visited Dr. Gijs van Selms for a consultation. Years ago, she had had breast implants placed to gain more self-confidence. After embarking on a path of self-development and coaching training, they were no longer needed. The entrepreneur and widow with three children wanted to have them removed and asked Dr. van Selms for advice. The first consultation Leonie was able to get an appointment for a no-obligation consultation quite quickly: 'When I walked in for the first time, it immediately felt relaxed and good; everyone was so friendly. Dr. van Selms investigated how the removal of the implants was possible with the most beautiful end result possible. For instance, he told me about the option of filling my breasts in a more natural way using the body's own material: lipofilling. This really appealed to me, and that is what I ultimately chose.' Beautiful result 'The consultation was in May, and I was able to have the surgery as early as July. I wasn't nervous beforehand; I trusted Dr. van Selms completely. He had said: it will be beautiful no matter what!' This turned out to be absolutely true: when I looked at the result after the surgery, I was so happy! Taking a rest 'After the surgery, I took a period of rest; after all, it was a serious procedure. Fortunately, apart from the pain, I had no complaints; everything went well. I still find the result beautiful and I am happy with the choice I made.'

Noëmi had her breast implants removed by plastic surgeon Gijs van Selms. She did this after a two-year search during which she was sent from pillar to post with her complaints. It was therefore a relief that Dr. van Selms really listened and acknowledged her problem. For even though there is no scientific evidence, the complaints were very real. Noëmi decided to have her implants removed. How did Noëmi end up at Esthetisch Centrum Jan van Goyen? She suffered from joint and muscle pain, and tingling hands and feet. She also had enormous back pain and was very tired. She describes the latter herself as a “desperate fatigue.” In the last year, she had a lot of pain in both breasts, and this pain radiated to her armpits. “No fun!” says Noëmi, and that is putting it mildly. The search to get better lasted no less than two years. She consulted her general practitioner, a neurologist, a rheumatologist, and an internist. This internist was the first to take her complaints seriously, and six months later—after much research on the internet—Nöemi discovered that the symptoms might well be caused by her breast implants. Consultation with Dr. Gijs van Selms. Dr. van Selms was recommended on a forum; he appeared to have extensive experience with implant-related complaints. Therefore, Noëmi made an appointment with him for a consultation. During this consultation, Dr. Gijs van Selms listened very carefully to her story and, very importantly, he took the complaints seriously. He also promised a good result and remained realistic about the surgery and the associated expectations. It is important that complaints are acknowledged. Noëmi was labeled as sensitive, particularly by the general practitioner, neurologist, and rheumatologist, and her physical complaints were attributed to burnout. It is a difficult condition, and it is complicated to demonstrate whether symptoms are actually caused by implants. This does not alter the fact that they do exist and that something can be done about them. Come by for a consultation too.

A consultation provides you with the insights you need to make an informed decision. Every day, our doctors see women considering having their breast implants replaced or removed.

On the one hand, Noëmi was dreading the surgery, but she was also really looking forward to it. She had read many stories of women who improved significantly after such a procedure, and that would be a relief. Still, she was afraid. Afraid that the symptoms wouldn't disappear after all, or that the cosmetic result would be disappointing. Noëmi says: “My breasts are small now, but it looks beautiful. The scars are smaller than before, and I came out of the surgery so much stronger!” How are her symptoms? The pain is practically gone, and Noëmi is grateful for that. The first day after the surgery, she was still groggy from the anesthesia, but she actually noticed it immediately: “I just don’t have any pain anymore… no pain in the breasts, significantly less back pain. I didn’t dare say it out loud yet, but a large part of the symptoms had disappeared!” The fatigue and back pain are still there, but less intense. Would you like to share anything else? “Many women are afraid of the result when considering having breast implants removed. That is not necessary. It can turn out very beautifully, and my experience is that Dr. van Selms can assess that well in advance. He explains in clear language what you can expect.' Dr. Gijs van Selms shares: 'At our clinic, we see a small percentage of women with symptoms that may be caused by the implants. There is no scientific evidence to support this, but if I can help someone, I certainly will. I see women recover after surgery. Fortunately, most women don’t suffer from anything, but we cannot hide the fact that the problem exists.“ ”My breasts are small now, but it looks beautiful.“ The scars are smaller than before, and I came out of the surgery so much stronger! – Noëmi Are you also considering having your breast implants removed?
