Facelift Surgery (Rhytidectomy)

The facelift (also spelt 'face lift' and scientifically known as a rhytidectomy) is one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures in the UK today. Thanks to growing media publicity about celebrities who have had the procedure, many patients are familiar with the concept of face lift surgery and now consider it an option as they get older and their face begins to lose its youthful shape.

PIP Ruptured Implant Removal and Replacement

18th May 2012

Facelift Surgery

Plastic Surgeon Mr Adrian Richards of Aurora Clinics talks us through removal and replacement of a set of ruptured PIP implants.

This patient originally received 305cc PIP implants in 2003, and a recent ultrasound revealed suspected ruptures in both implants. This is confirmed when the implants are removed, with one found to have a rupture on the rim, and the other where the baseplate meets the rest of the implant.

If you know or suspect you may have received PIP implants and would like to talk to us in confidence about getting them replaced, call us to arrange a free consultation on 0800 328 5743 or fill in our contact form.
