BREAST REVISION
With any surgery, complications can arise. Our surgeons are at your side to help correct these issues. Breast revision surgery addresses nipple malposition, pocket adjustment, lift correction, and scar revision. This procedure helps correct issues that came with a previous breast augmentation.
BENEFITS OF A REVISION
NIPPLE CORRECTION
All of our breast revision procedures include the correction of the nipple. Oftentimes, with a previous surgery the nipple placement needs to be addressed.
POCKET CORRECTION
A revision to the pocket can correct multiple issues with implant position. The pocket is the space that the implant sits inside in the breast.
ADDRESS IMPLANT
This procedure addresses issues with the implant. They address capsular contracture and implant ruptures. They can also adjust the sizing if needed.
INCREASED CONFIDENCE
Our surgeons can give you something to be proud of. With a revision, the aesthetic appearance of your breasts will be addressed and pervious issues will be corrected.

- IMPLANT REVISION
- POCKET REVISION
- LIFT REVISION
- SCAR REVISION
Rupture: An implant rupture happens when the outer shell of the implant is punctured or compromised. This causes the implants filling to leak out.
Capsular Contracture: After a breast augmentation, scar tissue can begin to form around the newly placed implant. For some patients, this scar tissue buildup becomes hard, and contracts around the nipple. This leads to issues with the aesthetic appearance.
Implant Malposition: This issue is caused by a variety of things with the pocket. The implant can bottom out or it can have the double-bubble effect.
The breast lift revision can correct issues with asymmetry, shaping of breasts and the drooping of breasts. With a breast lift revision, you can also choose to add an implant for an augmentation.
The last type of revision is scar revision. Our surgeons can address large and dark scars that could have resulted from previous surgery.
BREAST REVISION RECOVERY
Immediately after surgery you should avoid strenuous activities. After 48 hours, you can shower but must place the surgical bra back on. You should be back to work after a weekend of healing.
After the first week, you can start walking on a treadmill. No running or heavy lifting for at least 4-5 weeks.
One month after you should be back to a full routine.
