Revision Mammoplasty is a corrective breast surgery designed to improve, modify, or repair the results of a previous breast procedure such as breast augmentation, breast lift, or breast reduction. The surgery is highly individualized and may address both aesthetic concerns and medical complications that develop following an earlier breast operation.

This procedure may be performed to correct implant-related issues such as capsular contracture, implant rupture, implant displacement, rippling, asymmetry, or unsatisfactory cosmetic results. It may also be used to change implant size, replace existing implants, remove implants entirely, improve breast shape, or address sagging that develops over time. Benefits may include improved breast symmetry, enhanced breast contour, increased comfort, correction of previous surgical concerns, and more balanced, natural-looking breast proportions.

Revision Mammoplasty begins with a consultation our affiliated clinic. During the consultation, the doctor evaluates the breasts, reviews previous surgical history, assesses implant condition if present, and discusses the patient's concerns and desired outcome. Imaging studies may be recommended to evaluate implant integrity and surrounding breast tissues. Local anesthesia is administered to ensure patient comfort throughout the procedure. Depending on the surgical plan, existing implants may be removed, replaced, or exchanged for a different size or type. In cases of capsular contracture, the scar tissue capsule surrounding the implant may be partially or completely removed. The implant pocket may also be adjusted to improve implant positioning and breast symmetry.

Once the corrections have been completed, the incisions are carefully closed, and supportive dressings or compression garments are applied. Following surgery, mild to moderate swelling, bruising, tightness, and discomfort are expected during the initial recovery period. As healing progresses, breast shape and position continue to improve over several weeks and months, allowing the final results to gradually become visible.
