Breast revision surgery

Breast revision surgery is performed when the desired shape or condition is achieved due to issues with existing implants, changes in line, asymmetry, contracture, etc.
When not maintained, through methods such as implant replacement, repositioning, capsule correction, or breast tissue correction
It is a surgery to restore the shape and function of the breast.

check point

Engraving breast revision surgery POINT

  • Accurate diagnosis based on cause analysis Accurately diagnoses the areas requiring revision surgery by meticulously analyzing existing issues such as contracture, double creases, implant displacement, and size dissatisfaction, down to the condition of body shape, breast tissue, and capsule.
  • Customized correction considering implants, capsules, and tissues We perform personalized revision surgery that combines the most suitable methods depending on the type of problem, including not only implant replacement but also capsular resection, pocket reconstruction, and correction of the mammary gland, fat, and muscle layers.
  • Safety-focused revision surgery system As the procedure is more complex than the first surgery, it is performed using a sophisticated safety system that minimizes the risk of bleeding, infection, and tissue damage, including layered dissection, blood flow preservation, and implant stabilization.

Breast revision surgery,
When should I do it?

Generally, it takes 6 months to 1 year after breast surgery for the breast tissue and shape to settle to some extent.
Therefore, the timing of breast revision surgery is At least 6 months later is appropriate..
However, depending on the individual's condition, the timing of revision surgery may be brought forward due to implant deformation, rupture, or other reasons.

Breast revision surgery cause

A plastic surgeon specializing in breast augmentation Accurately check the desired breast shape and size for revision surgery through in-depth consultation with the patient.
In addition, to check the current condition of the chest, we perform an examination using specialized equipment to accurately assess the structure of the thoracic tissue and the condition of the breasts.

Method 01

Old model

Old model

Older structure The phenomenon of the surgically operated breast becoming hard, the most common cause of revision surgeryCapsular contracture is classified into degrees 1 to 4 depending on the degree.

Method 02

Dissatisfied with the shape

Dissatisfied with the shape

If you are not satisfied with the breast size after breast augmentation The size of the implant can be changed using the original incision line, and Reoperation is possible only after 6 months have passed since the initial surgery.

Method 03

Chest asymmetry

Chest asymmetry

due to spherical contracture Breast asymmetry may occur due to implant deformation, inaccurate design during breast augmentation, or surgery performed without considering individual characteristics. If the breasts are different sizes and two inframammary folds appear, it is considered breast asymmetry and must be corrected through revision surgery.

Method 04

Implant breakage/replacement

Implant breakage/replacement

Capsular contracture frequently occurs when the implant is ruptured.If liquid silicone implants or saline bags rupture, the contents leak out, deforming the breast shape and making it easy to visually identify the rupture. However, cohesive gel implants have a low rupture rate and are safe as they are not absorbed into the body.

Method 05

Dissatisfied with the size

Dissatisfied with the size

The upper chest appears bulging out and the lower part lacks volume, making the implants obvious, Occurs when the implant is placed in an inappropriate position or when the implant is not selected according to individual characteristics.

Method 06

animation phenomenon

animation phenomenon

breast implants A phenomenon that moves with muscle contraction and can be seen or felt externallyThis occurs primarily when an implant is inserted beneath the muscle (double plane), causing the pectoralis major muscle to move and move the implant along with it.

Old model?

Capsular contracture is surgically treated The phenomenon of chest hardening is the most common cause of revision surgery.

Steps of Sphere Construction Symptom

Graph of symptoms by contracture stage
normal

A state of not being able to feel

Observation required

There are no external issues, but
The implant is slightly palpable

Reoperation needed

The chest becomes firm, and the implants are distinct.
Can be touched and seen externally

Reoperation needed

The chest hardens and the shape of the implant
Deformed and painful
