Dr. Robert Whitfield states that a breast lift is not strictly required when removing implants — patients can choose explantation without a lift, and clinicians can wait to see if the skin tightens. He notes he performed several hundred explants without lifts before introducing E-lift procedures when he began this work in 2016.

So basically the long story short is nobody actually needs a lift. Everybody can have an explant without a lift. It's their prerogative. I totally understand waiting, evaluating your skin, seeing if it will tighten over time. And I did several hundred that way before I started doing E lift procedures back when I started doing this in 2016. So we can do it in whatever manner the patient wants in order to help them get where they want to be at the end.
