WhatsAppThat is what this article relies on — nothing more. She did not name the clinic, the surgeon, or the implant brand, and none of that is guessed at here. What follows about implants, check-ups and recovery describes breast augmentation in general, not her own treatment.
Why she chose to speak about it publicly
Rather than staying quiet about a procedure going wrong, Dietz used her platform to explain to her followers why she was having her implants removed years after the original surgery. This is not a comment on her appearance — it is simply a record of what she said about her own situation and the decision she made as a result.

Breast augmentation abroad: choose a city and clinic
Prices, the clinic and a free online consultation for each city:
Why implant material and follow-up care matter
Modern breast augmentation gives patients a say in exactly what is placed in their body, and surgeons discuss these choices before surgery rather than after a problem appears.
- Material
- Silicone (looks most natural) or saline (used less often)
- Shape
- Round or anatomical (teardrop)
- Surface
- Smooth or textured
Size and profile are added to this at the consultation, based on the patient's anatomy, not on someone else's experience.
Who the procedure suits and what rules it out
Augmentation is considered for insufficient volume, asymmetry, sagging or volume loss after pregnancy, among other reasons, but a consultation first checks whether surgery is actually needed. It is not performed during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with uncontrolled diabetes, acute infections, or uncorrected blood clotting disorders.
What recovery and the months after surgery involve
Recovery follows a fairly predictable path, with swelling settling over the first weeks and the final shape and softness forming over the following months, as shown below. Removal or exchange of implants, if it is ever needed later, follows a separate, shorter procedure.
How recovery after breast augmentation usually goes
- Day of surgeryGeneral anaesthesia; one day at the clinic under observation.
- 7–14 daysReturn to work without physical exertion.
- 3 weeksSwelling disappears, scars begin forming; no lifting over 3 kg, no raising arms above shoulder level.
- 1 monthThe breasts take on a more natural shape and softness.
- 4–6 weeksFitness, swimming, pool and sea are allowed; compression garments are worn through this period.
- 3 monthsRemaining discomfort disappears, a stable pocket forms around the implant, and strength training can resume.
Breast augmentation at City Medical Centre
City Medical Centre performs breast augmentation for international patients at a fixed price of $4,700, which includes the consultation, surgery under general anaesthesia, hospital stay, and dressings and check-ups for a full year afterwards — built in specifically so that any concern can be picked up during that first year rather than discovered on its own later. Implant removal, where it is needed, is a separate procedure, priced from $3,300. Details are on the breast augmentation page.
To be clear: City Medical Centre has no connection with Margaux Dietz or her treatment. Her story is simply a well-known example of someone who spoke publicly about implants placed years earlier and the decision to have them removed.
