Reasons You Might Need Breast Implant Revision
Women may consider revision surgery for many aesthetic, medical, and personal reasons. Your goals and body can change over time, as can the condition of your implants. Common motivators for revision surgery after breast augmentation include:
- Dissatisfaction with previous results
- Changing implant size: Going smaller or larger
- Exchanging saline for silicone
- Swapping implant shapes, like round or teardrop-shaped implants
- Implant shifting, leading to asymmetry
- Capsular contracture: Scar tissue hardening around the implant
- Implant rupture: Leading to deflation
- Bottoming out: When implants sink below the breast crease, often over time
- Double bubble: The implant sits too high on the chest, or the breast tissue moves lower than the implant, creating a visible double breast mound
Dr. Breitbart and our empathetic team recognize every woman’s concerns as valid. We take time to fully evaluate your previous breast augmentation results and understand your needs to recommend the right plan for your revision.
Signs It Might Be Time to Act
If you’re not sure whether breast revision surgery is the right step, look out for these signs:
- Your implants cause discomfort or tightness
- Your implants don’t align with your appearance goals
- Your implants have changed significantly in appearance
- You’ve experienced complications
- You’re worried about implant safety
- You want to remove them for personal reasons
If any of these sound familiar, a consultation with Dr. Breitbart can help bring clarity. We’re ready to help you get the results you want, even if your previous breast augmentation didn’t provide the outcome you had hoped for.
