When to Consider a Breast Revision

Patients typically come to Dr. Srinivasa interested in breast revision when a previous augmentation or reconstruction procedure has failed, or developed complications. Some of the most common instances in which patients seek out breast revision include:

Implant-based breast augmentation complications, such as implant migration, rippling, capsular contracture, and other issues.
Complications like tissue expander extrusion or loss of expander due to skin breakdown or infection.
Asymmetry that has developed between the breasts over time.
An autologous breast reconstruction procedure has resulted in fat necrosis or total flap failure.

What is breast revision surgery?

Breast revision surgery, also known as breast implant revision, is a procedure performed to replace or remove existing breast implants. It may be done to address complications, such as implant rupture, capsular contracture (hardening of the tissue around the implant), or to change implant size or shape.

When should I consider breast revision surgery?

You may consider breast revision surgery if you experience issues with your current implants, such as asymmetry, visible rippling, dissatisfaction with size or shape, or if there are medical concerns like implant rupture or capsular contracture.

What are the reasons for needing breast revision?

Common reasons include changes in aesthetic preferences, complications with the implants (like rupture or deflation), dissatisfaction with results over time, or changes in breast tissue due to weight loss, pregnancy, or aging.

What happens during a breast revision procedure?

The specifics depend on the reason for revision, but generally, the surgeon will remove the old implants, address any issues like capsule formation, and then replace them with new implants or perform a breast lift (mastopexy) if needed for improved contour and shape.

What is the recovery like after breast revision surgery?

Recovery time varies but typically involves some discomfort, swelling, and bruising initially. You'll need to avoid strenuous activities and follow post-operative care instructions provided by your surgeon. Full recovery can take several weeks to months, depending on individual healing.
