why do
women opt for breast revision surgery?
Unlike other surgeries, breast revision surgery does not have one common method which can be used on all patients. Breast revision surgery includes breast implant revision, breast reduction revision, and breast lift revision. Breast revision surgery is customized and altered as per the breast revision surgeon’s expert opinion and the patient’s unique needs and requirements for the best possible outcome. Since the needs are different, the reasons to undergo breast revision surgery, be it breast implant revision, breast reduction revision, or breast lift revision, are also different.
Following are the reasons why women may opt for breast revision surgery:
- Change in Size Of Implants: In certain cases of breast augmentation with breast implants, sometimes the implant size does not match the patient’s need. In these cases, the patient wants to either size up their implant or size down a notch; a breast revision surgery or breast implant revision is performed in such a situation by making an incision at the previous breast augmentation scar. After the removal of the previous implant, the new implant or desired size is placed during breast revision surgery or breast implant revision.
- Capsular Contracture: Sometimes after breast augmentation surgery, it comes to notice that the edges of the implants are clearly visible. This affects the overall appearance, making the breasts look unattractive and unnatural. Breast revision surgery or breast implant revision is then performed by opening the previous incision. The implants are either repositioned in a natural way or completely removed according to the patient’s wishes during this breast revision surgery or breast implant revision.
- Implant Malposition: In certain situations, the implants are either placed too far apart or too close together. This gives an asymmetrical appearance to the breasts. This can also be corrected by opening the incision and re-positioning the implants optimally by manipulating the scar tissue and the implant pocket.In certain situations, the implants are either placed too far apart or too close together during the breast augmentation procedure. This gives an asymmetrical appearance to the breasts. This can also be corrected by an experienced breast revision surgeon during breast revision surgery or breast implant revision. To correct these issues, the breast revision surgeon will open the incision and reposition the implants optimally by manipulating the scar tissue and the implant pocket during breast revision surgery or breast implant revision.
- Implant Removal: If the skin has stretched or if the patient is having health concerns due to large implants, these can be removed. A breast lift can be performed after the removal of implants to ensure the breasts remain firm and anatomically higher in position. If the skin has stretched or if the patient is having health concerns due to large implants after breast augmentation surgery, then these breast implants can be removed completely during breast revision surgery or breast implant revision. A breast lift can be performed if required after removing the breast implants during breast revision surgery or breast implant revision to ensure the breasts remain firm and anatomically higher in position.
- Elevation of Nipple and Areola Position: During breast revision surgery, the breast revision surgeon can raise the position of the nipple at an attractive height and change the size of areolas. In this breast revision surgery, incisions are made around the areola, excising the excess skin and positioning them properly.
