At Clarewell Clinics London, we specialise in Ultrasound Guided Contraceptive Implant Removal. This procedure is specifically designed for situations where your contraceptive implant is not easily felt under the skin, often referred to as a ‘deep’ implant, or if a previous removal attempt has been unsuccessful. Our experienced clinicians in London use advanced ultrasound technology to precisely locate the implant before its careful removal.
Your visit to our London clinic for this procedure typically lasts around 45 minutes and is designed to be as comfortable and efficient as possible. We aim to conduct both the consultation and the removal within a single appointment, provided it is safe. The process begins with a consultation and an ultrasound scan to pinpoint the implant’s exact position. A local anaesthetic is then administered to numb the area, ensuring the removal is as painless as possible. Our London team will guide you through each step, making sure you feel informed and at ease throughout your time with us.
We are committed to providing a supportive, confidential, and professional environment at our London clinic. Our team understands the potential anxiety associated with this procedure and is here to offer reassurance and expert care. Following the removal, we will provide detailed aftercare instructions. Please remember to arrange transport home if you feel you might be uncomfortable driving afterwards.
