Implanon Insertion & Removal Manly
Implanon is a small contraceptive implant inserted under the skin of the upper arm by a trained health professional. It is a long-acting reversible contraceptive option and may be suitable for patients looking for reliable contraception without needing to remember a daily pill.
At South Steyne Medical Centre, Implanon services are provided by doctors with an interest in women’s health and contraception. Dr Yliana Dennett and Dr Nikita Hostland provide Implanon insertion and removal services at the practice.
Patients considering Implanon will usually require an initial consultation before the procedure is booked. This allows the doctor to discuss suitability, medical history, contraceptive history, menstrual history, procedure details, costs, rebates and next steps.
Whether you are considering Implanon for contraception, need an existing implant removed or replaced, or would like to discuss your contraceptive options more broadly, the doctors consulting from South Steyne Medical Centre can provide practical, respectful and evidence-based care.
Conveniently located directly opposite Manly Beach, appointments are available online, by phone or in person.

How Does Implanon Insertion and Removal Work?
- Book an Initial Implanon Consultation
The first step is usually to book an initial Implanon consultation with one of the doctors offering this service.
This appointment is used to discuss your medical history, contraception history, menstrual history, reasons for considering Implanon, and whether it may be suitable for you.
This appointment type is available via HotDoc and is called ‘Implanon Initial Consult’.
Alternatively you can contact us over the phone or via email through this link.
- Discuss Implanon Suitability and Options
During your consultation, the doctor can discuss how Implanon works, possible side effects, expected bleeding changes, alternative contraception options, costs, rebates and what to expect from the procedure.
- Arrange the Procedure Appointment
If Implanon is suitable and you decide to proceed, a separate procedure appointment may be arranged.
The doctor will explain what to expect before, during and after the procedure, including preparation, local anaesthetic, aftercare and follow-up.
- Attend the Implanon Insertion or Removal Appointment
Implanon insertion involves placing the implant under the skin of the upper arm. Removal involves locating the implant and removing it through a small incision under local anaesthetic.
The doctor will provide aftercare advice and discuss when to seek medical attention if you experience concerning symptoms.
