Issues Addressed with Breast Implant Revision

Breast implant revision is a highly specialized procedure designed to address a range of concerns, including:

• Capsular contracture (scar tissue around the implant causing hardness or discomfort)
• Implant rupture or leakage
• Desire to change implant size, shape, or type
• Implant malposition or asymmetry
• Dissatisfaction with results from a previous augmentation
• Visible rippling or unnatural implant appearance

Types of Breast Implant Revision Procedures

• Implant Replacement: Replacing old implants with new ones is a common approach for patients looking to update the size, shape, or material of their implants.
• Capsulectomy: This involves removing scar tissue (capsule) that has formed around the implant, often combined with implant replacement or repositioning.
• Implant Removal: For patients who no longer wish to have breast implants, implant removal can be performed with or without a breast lift to maintain natural contours.
• Correction of Implant Malposition: This addresses implants that have shifted out of their ideal position, restoring symmetry and improving overall appearance.

Breast Implant Revision Procedure Details

Our plastic surgeons highly customize each breast implant revision surgery to the individual needs of the patient. The surgery typically involves advanced techniques to minimize scarring and deliver optimal results. Performed under general anesthesia, the procedure duration varies depending on the complexity of the case. Our surgical team ensures every step is conducted with precision and care to achieve safe and effective outcomes. This outpatient surgery typically takes about two hours to complete.

Recovery and Results

Recovery times depend on the specifics of the revision procedure, but most patients can return to light activities within a couple weeks. Swelling and bruising are common during the initial healing phase, with final results becoming visible over the following months. Patients often report improved comfort, enhanced aesthetics, and renewed confidence after their revision procedure. New breast implants last typically 10 or more years before needing replacement.
