Elevate Your Expectations

What is Breast Implant Revision?

Breast implant revision surgery addresses issues or dissatisfaction related to existing breast implants. It involves correcting complications such as implant rupture, capsular contracture, asymmetry, malposition, or dissatisfaction with size and shape.

This may entail removing and replacing the implants, adjusting their size or type, repositioning them, or addressing any other concerns to enhance your comfort and confidence in the look and feel of your breasts.

A New Start

What are the benefits of Breast Implant Revision?

Breast implant revision can incorporate a number of surgical approaches to address issues with your implants. Breast implant revision may include one or more of the following steps:

  • Implant Removal: Existing breast implants are removed, with Dr. Wan ensuring complete extraction of any ruptured implant material.
  • Capsulectomy:  Dr. Wan specializes in capsulectomy to remove any scar tissue around the old implants.
  • Implant Replacement: If desired, new breast implants may be placed, either in the same pocket as the previous implants or in a newly created new pocket.
  • Pocket Adjustment: The size or shape of the breast pockets may be adjusted to optimize the placement of the new implants or correct asymmetry. This may be accomplished using sutures and/or surgical mesh. 
  • Breast Lift (Mastopexy): In cases where the breasts have sagged or lost volume, a breast lift may be performed concurrently with implant removal or replacement to lift and reshape the breast tissue for a more youthful appearance.
  • Nipple and Areola Repositioning: Revision surgery can also reposition the nipples and areolas to achieve better symmetry and aesthetic balance.

Whatever techniques are employed, the goal is always the same—restoring aesthetically pleasing proportions and correcting any complications, giving you breasts you can love anew.

A Versatile Procedure Tailored to You

Your Breast Implant Revision Procedure

Evaluation and planning is an important phase of breast implant revision surgery. Dr. Wan will evaluate your existing implants, assess any complications or concerns, and discuss your goals to develop a personalized surgical plan. Breast implant revision is typically performed as an outpatient surgery, so you’ll be able to go home the same day with someone to drive you and help you out during early recovery. When possible, the incisions for implant revision are placed along the old incision lines to minimize scarring. The details of your procedure will be tailored to your needs, ensuring a result that restores your satisfaction with the appearance and feel of your breasts.

Attentive Care for a Beautiful Result

Breast Implant Revision Recovery and Aftercare

Recovery after breast implant revision involves managing discomfort, swelling, and bruising immediately after the procedure. You should plan for one to two weeks off from work, with a return to light activities within a few days to a week. Dr. Wan will check your healing at a series of post-operative visits, offering attentive support and guidance to ensure an optimal outcome. You will observe gradual changes in the appearance and feel of your breasts as the tissues settle into position, with final results emerging over several weeks to months. Adhering to post-operative instructions is essential for a smooth recovery, as is enjoying an open line of communication with Dr. Wan in case any questions or concerns arise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Reasons for considering Breast Implant Revision surgery include addressing complications such as implant rupture, capsular contracture, or implant malposition. Additionally, patients may seek revision surgery to change the size or type of implants, correct asymmetry, or address dissatisfaction with aesthetic outcomes. Revision surgery can also be pursued for health reasons, such as discomfort or concerns about the integrity of the implants.

During Breast Implant Revision surgery, the need for implant replacement depends on individual circumstances. In some cases, implants may be adjusted or repositioned to achieve the desired outcome without replacement. In other cases where implant integrity may be in question or if there is capsular contracture, it is recommended that implants are replaced with new ones. Alternatively, implants can be removed entirely if desired or if there are concerns with repeated capsular contracture. The decision regarding implant replacement or removal is made based on your goals, the condition of the existing implants, and Dr. Wan’s recommendations.

Breast implants typically last around 10 years, but they may require replacement earlier if complications arise. Revision surgery may be necessary to address issues such as implant rupture, capsular contracture, or changes in aesthetic preferences. Regular monitoring and follow-up with your plastic surgeon help ensure optimal long-term outcomes.

You should take one to two weeks off from work to promote healing and reduce the risk of complications during recovery.

Breast Implant Revision is a highly individualized procedure. The cost of surgery is determined by the techniques employed and the price of any materials, such as new implants. Once you and Dr. Wan have met to discuss your goals and assess your specific needs, we can provide you with a breakdown of the cost of your recommended treatment plan.
