Breast Implant Revision Surgery is performed to improve the results of Breast Augmentation. While Breast Augmentation is both safe and effective, our bodies continue to change as we age. Breasts naturally change size and shape over time. This occurs with or without breast augmentation. While most changes are gradual, changes can happen relatively quickly with pregnancy and changes in weight.
Breast Implant Replacement
Breast implants can wear out too, requiring a new implant to be placed. The major US breast implant companies, Allegan and Mentor, do provide Breast Implant Warranties.
What Are the Common Reasons for Breast Augmentation Revision Surgery?
The most common reasons for Breast Implant Revision Surgery are a desire for a change in size, deflation of the breast implant, capsular contracture and breast implant malposition. It is important to clearly identify what problem(s) are bothersome, and to seek a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.
