Breast Revision Surgery Timing and Solutions by Cause: A Precise Analysis by 345 Plastic Surgery
An increasing number of people are considering breast revision surgery due to implant deformation or capsular contracture after their initial breast augmentation. At 345 Plastic Surgery, Chief Surgeon Dr. Han Kyu-nam, with 19 years of experience, personally performs the surgery, aiming for safe and natural results through a precise analysis of each individual's body type and skin condition.
4 Major Causes Requiring Breast Revision Surgery
As breast augmentation has become more popular recently, cases of patients considering breast revision surgery due to implant deformation or dissatisfaction with the shape are also increasing. Since revision surgery is more difficult than the initial procedure, an accurate analysis of the cause must come first.
- Implant Rupture and Deformation: Cases where the implant is damaged or its position has shifted, altering the breast shape.
- Dissatisfaction with Design: Cases where the breast size feels too large or too small, failing to meet personal preferences.
- Capsular Contracture: A condition where the capsule surrounding the implant hardens, resulting in a poor tactile feel and pain.
- Breast Asymmetry: Cases where the position or size of both breasts differs, breaking the balance.
Timing and Key Factors to Consider for Breast Revision Surgery
Breast revision surgery is generally possible after about 6 months, once the tissues have sufficiently stabilized following the initial surgery. However, the optimal timing may vary depending on skin thickness, muscle recovery status, and the severity of current side effects.
The most important aspect of revision surgery is achieving both safety and aesthetic satisfaction simultaneously so that this surgery can be your last. It requires a process of re-selecting the most suitable implant for you through precise diagnosis, considering the movement and feel of the implant.
