Am I a Candidate for Revision Breast Surgery?
You may benefit from a revision procedure if you have:

• Implant rupture, rippling, or capsular contracture
  

• Noticeable asymmetry or shape distortion
  

• Changes in aesthetic goals or breast volume preference
  

• Discomfort or dissatisfaction from a previous surgery
  

• Poor scar healing or visible scarring from a prior procedure
  

Your consultation will involve a thorough evaluation and discussion of options — including implant exchange, removal, fat grafting, or surgical reshaping — all tailored to your anatomy and aesthetic vision.

How the Procedure Works
Because revision surgery varies based on your needs and surgical history, your procedure may include:

• Implant removal or replacement
  

• Internal pocket correction
  

• Scar revision or reshaping of breast tissue
  

• Skin tightening or lift (mastopexy) techniques
  

Your Plastic Surgeon will guide you through a carefully planned approach and ensure your recovery is supported every step of the way.

Our Cosmetic Team collaborates with your surgeon to personalize your healing journey. Pre- and post-operative care may include:

• Medical-grade skincare to prep the skin and reduce inflammation
  

• Post-surgical laser treatments (such as Sciton Halo or BBL) to address scar texture and pigmentation
  

• Silicone-based scar therapies to minimize visibility
  

• Ongoing skincare maintenance for long-term softness and skin quality

Recovery timelines vary depending on the complexity of the revision, but most patients resume light activity within 7–10 days. As healing progresses:

• Swelling and bruising diminish within a few weeks
  

• Scars continue to fade with proper care
  

• Final results emerge over 3–6 months, with continued improvement over time
  

Your care doesn’t stop after surgery. Our collaborative approach ensures long-term results with professional follow-up and support.

Revision breast surgery is a complex procedure, and while it offers significant improvements, it also comes with considerations such as:

• Scar tissue from previous procedures that may affect surgical planning
  

• Changes in skin elasticity or tissue quality that influence final shape
  

• Risk of implant-related complications (if re-augmentation is performed)
  

• Temporary or persistent asymmetry or sensation changes
  

• Minor wound healing issues or infection
  

• The possibility of requiring future touch-up or revision procedures
  

Our team will review all risks with you during consultation and design a surgical and recovery plan that prioritizes both safety and your long-term aesthetic goals.
