What Is Explant Surgery in San Diego, CA?
The Khan Procedure™
The Khan Procedure™ is Dr. Khan’s proprietary surgical method, developed through years of focusing solely on breast implant removal. This refined technique is designed to be the most thorough and meticulous surgery possible, optimizing every step for patient safety and complete removal of all foreign materials.
Total & En Bloc Capsulectomy
We specialize in total capsulectomy, which involves the complete removal of the scar tissue capsule that forms around an implant. When surgically appropriate, we perform this en bloc, removing the implant and capsule together as a single, intact unit to prevent contamination.
100/100/0 Rule™ Documentation
Our commitment to transparency is absolute. We adhere to the 100/100/0 Rule™, providing photographic proof that 100% of the implant and capsule are removed, 100% of the time, with 0% of the capsule knowingly left behind. This provides you with total peace of mind.
Advanced Drainless Technique
To improve your comfort and simplify your recovery, our surgical approach avoids the use of post-operative surgical drains. This modern technique allows for a more convenient and less cumbersome healing process without compromising on safety or results.
Natural Breast Restoration
Beyond removal, Dr. Khan’s technique includes a natural ‘pseudo-lift’ component. This involves carefully reshaping the remaining breast tissue to restore a more natural contour and aesthetic appearance after the implants are removed.
Breast Implant Illness Care
We have a deep understanding of Breast Implant Illness (BII) and the systemic symptoms it can cause. Our entire process is designed to address the potential root causes of BII by ensuring the complete and meticulous removal of implants and capsule tissue.
Pathology and Analysis
We believe in providing definitive answers. After removal, your capsule tissue is sent to pathology for detailed analysis, which can offer valuable insights into your health and the body’s reaction to the implants.
