Addressing Changes & Refining Results
What is a Breast Implant Revision?
Breast revision surgery, often referred to as Breast Re-Do, is a specialized procedure designed to correct, replace, or enhance previous breast augmentation results. Women seek breast revision for a variety of reasons, including:
- Implant Deflation or Rupture – Replacing a saline or silicone implant that has lost integrity
- Desire to Change Implant Size or Type – Switching to a different volume, shape, or material
- Capsular Contracture – Correcting hardened scar tissue around the implant
- Implant Malposition – Adjusting implants that have shifted out of place
- Double-Bubble Deformity – Correcting implant placement issues for a smoother contour
- Natural Changes in the Breast – Addressing changes caused by pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or aging
The Procedure: Restoring Proportion & Elegance
Breast implant revision is a highly individualized procedure that depends on the patient’s concerns, anatomy, and aesthetic goals. Dr. LaTrenta carefully assesses each case to develop a surgical approach that delivers optimal, natural-looking results.
Surgical Techniques & Correction Metods
- Incision Placement – Usually made under the breast crease (inframammary incision) for optimal access.
- Removal & Replacement of Implants – Old implants are removed, and new implants are placed with meticulous precision.
- Pocket Modification – The existing implant pocket is either reconstructed, adjusted, or repositioned under the muscle for better support.
- Internal or External Breast Lift – In many cases, a breast lift (mastopexy) is required to reshape and elevate the breast for a more youthful contour.
- Scar Tissue Management – If capsular contracture is present, scar tissue is carefully removed to restore a soft, natural feel.
Every step is taken to enhance symmetry, softness, and the longevity of results, ensuring the best possible aesthetic outcome.
Who is the Best Candidate for Breast Implant Revision?
You may be a good candidate for breast revision surgery if:
Recovery & Aftercare: A Smooth, Comfortable Healing Process
Recovery from breast revision surgery depends on the complexity of the procedure and the extent of correction required. Most patients experience a relatively smooth recovery with proper post-operative care.
- Return to Work – Most patients can return to light activities and work within a few days to a week.
- Restricted Activity – Vigorous activities, especially those involving arm movement, should be limited for 2-3 weeks.
- Support Garment – A surgical support bra must be worn for 2-3 months to aid in healing and maintain breast shape.
- Final Results – Swelling decreases gradually, with final breast shape settling within 3-6 months.
Dr. LaTrenta provides a personalized follow-up plan to ensure optimal healing and beautiful results.
