Dr. Ho Cao Vu, who has integrated ultrasonic instruments into his practice since 2011, emphasizes that removing breast implants requires a tailored strategy rather than a routine protocol. The technology assists in tissue dissection and hemostasis, allowing surgeons to better evaluate the implant pocket and surrounding tissue. This level of precision is increasingly relevant for patients managing complications such as implant rupture, capsular contracture, symmastia, or simple aesthetic revisions.
Vietnam’s Medical Tourism Push Spotlights Specialized Breast Surgery
As Vietnam positions itself as a growing destination for international medical tourism, Edopi Health Care Clinic is sharpening the focus on complex aesthetic procedures. Dr. Ho Cao Vu is now utilizing ultrasonic surgical technology to refine breast implant removal and replacement, moving away from standardized surgical approaches toward individualized patient care.
Following the removal of an existing implant, the surgical team assesses the pocket to determine if further interventions—such as capsulectomy or tissue sampling—are necessary. The clinical process often includes laryngeal mask airway anesthesia for selected patients, though Dr. Vu notes that every surgery carries inherent risks, including bleeding or infection. With over 20 years of experience in general surgery and a background in breast reconstruction from the MD Anderson Cancer Center, Dr. Vu currently performs these procedures at the Nam Sai Gon International General Hospital. His work reflects a broader trend in Ho Chi Minh City, where specialized surgical clinics are seeking to elevate the standard of care to attract a global patient base.
