Relatively Quick: Generally, removal of breast implant surgery is associated with minimal discomfort, compared to other types of breast surgery including the initial breast augmentation surgery. Patients ( under the guidance of their plastic surgeons) are able to return to activities much quicker, generally speaking.

~20% of original : There are several factors that need to be discussed such as the original implant size, position (under/over the muscle) and incision. If your implants are a similar size and the pocket is the same, i commonly performed these operations under local and patients have about 10% of the discomfort of the original surgery. If going larger (common request) pain may be slightly more with activity limits.
