How It’s Done
Breast revision isn’t just another surgery; it’s about refinement and retuning the earlier results to match your desires. Beginning with a comprehensive evaluation, your surgeon will assess your medical history, existing concerns, and desired results.
Like most surgical procedures, breast revision is performed under general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort throughout. The surgical process often involves using existing incision sites to minimize new scarring. Depending on the specific revision needs, the procedure might encompass implant replacement, removal, capsular contracture correction, implant repositioning, or a combination of implant exchange with a lift.
Once corrections are finalized, incisions are meticulously sutured, often using dissolvable sutures, and post-operative care involves dressings, bandages, and supportive garments to facilitate optimal healing. Each procedure is unique, so it’s crucial for you to consult with a plastic surgeon Dr. Jaime Haidenberg and board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Natan Yaker at Plano Plastic Surgery for a detailed surgical plan.
Who is a Good Candidate?
You are an ideal candidate for breast revision surgery if you:
- Have experienced implant complications like rupture or deflation.
- Are unhappy with the results of a previous augmentation.
- Wish to change the size, shape, or type of their implants.
- Are in good overall health and maintain realistic expectations.
Breast Revision Recovery and What to Expect
Immediate Post-Operative Phase
Support Garments: A surgical bra is often recommended to support the breasts and minimize swelling.
Bruising and Swelling: Some patients may notice bruising and swelling, but these symptoms are temporary.
Mid Recovery Phase (1-4 weeks)
Incision Care: Proper care of the surgical site is crucial to avoid complications and improve scar appearance.
Follow-Up Appointments: Routine visits with the surgeon ensure proper healing and monitor for complications.
Long-Term Recovery
Scar Maturation: Over time, and with proper care, scars from the incisions will fade, though they'll remain to some extent.
Final Results: The final outcome of the surgery becomes apparent once the breasts have fully settled, which may take several months.
Potential Side Effects
Scarring: Scars from breast revision surgery will fade over time but will always be present. Proper scar care can enhance their appearance.
