Who Should Consider Breast Revision Surgery?

Women may schedule breast revision surgery for many reasons, including:

Personal Aesthetics

If your implant size and shape were perfect when you got them, but you later got a case of “breast buyer’s remorse,” you’re not alone. As your stage in life changes, your perspective on your appearance can change, too.

The breasts you wanted 5, 10, or more years ago might not be the ones you wish for today. A breast implant revision can allow you to adjust the size of your breasts to one you’re happy and comfortable with.

Saline to Silicone

Many women who originally got saline implants opt for breast implant revision to swap in silicone, which has a more natural appearance and feel with a lower risk of problems like rippling.

Implant Complications

Although implant complications are rare, problems like implant rupture or leakage can occur. Complications like capsular contracture, in which scar tissue tightens around the implant, can cause discomfort and breast distortion. Implants may shift slightly, making the breasts look uneven. Breast revision surgery can safely eliminate the problem and restore your breasts with new implants.

Breast Appearance Changes

Over the years, the body can change, affecting your breast appearance. Weight gain and loss, pregnancy and breastfeeding, and aging may lead to sagging or other unwanted changes that a breast revision surgery can correct.

No matter the reason, breast revision surgery is designed to restore confidence and comfort.

What to Expect During Breast Revision

Revision surgery is highly individualized and requires superior skill and attention to detail. 

Surgery may include:

• Removing or replacing implants
• Adjusting the breast pocket for better positioning
• Combining revision with a breast lift for a more youthful shape

Dr. Craft’s customized surgical planning ensures results that complement your natural proportions.
