Understanding Breast Augmentation Revision
Breast augmentation revision surgery is not uncommon and serves various purposes. The procedure is primarily considered by those who have experienced changes in breast appearance due to aging, weight fluctuations, or dissatisfaction with initial results. It’s also vital for addressing complications such as capsular contracture (where scar tissue forms around the implant, causing discomfort or distortion), implant malposition, or rupture.
Reasons for Considering Revision
1. Cosmetic Adjustments: Many patients opt for revision to modify the size or shape of their implants to better suit their current lifestyle or aesthetic preferences. Changes in body perception and trends can also influence this decision.
2. Physical Comfort: Issues like discomfort or implant shifting can necessitate a revision. Adjustments can provide relief and restore a more natural look and feel.
3. Medical Necessity: In cases where the integrity of an implant is compromised (through rupture or severe capsular contracture), revision surgery is essential to maintain health and comfort.
The Revision Process
At our practice, the revision surgery begins with a thorough consultation, where Dr. Lee your conducts a physical exam and discusses your aesthetic goals. This collaborative approach helps tailor the procedure to your unique situation.
Pre-Surgical Planning: Dr. Lee will use advanced imaging technologies to visualize the changes and plan the surgery meticulously. This step is crucial for aligning your expectations with achievable outcomes.
The Procedure: Depending on your specific needs, the surgery might involve removing or replacing the implants, correcting the implant position, or adjusting the breast tissue and skin. Dr. Lee employs the latest surgical techniques to ensure minimal scarring and optimal recovery.
Post-Surgical Care: Recovery varies depending on the complexity of the surgery and individual healing rates. Generally, patients are advised to limit physical activity for several weeks. Dr. Lee and our team provide comprehensive post-operative care, including follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery and ensure the best results.
