What is Breast Revision?

Breast Revision, also known as breast implant revision or breast implant replacement, is a surgical procedure aimed at addressing issues with existing breast implants or altering the appearance of the breasts following a previous breast augmentation surgery. This procedure may involve the removal and replacement of breast implants, adjusting their size, shape, or type, correcting complications or issues such as implant rupture, deflation, or capsular contracture, and achieving the desired aesthetic outcome. Breast revision allows individuals to modify or improve the results of a previous breast augmentation or to resolve any complications that may have arisen over time.

Is Breast Revision Right for You?

The Breast Revision Process - What to Expect

Your breast revision journey begins with an initial consultation with Dr. Micallef, a double board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon. During this meeting, you'll have the opportunity to discuss your specific concerns and aesthetic goals. Dr. Micallef will carefully evaluate your existing breast implants, surgical history, and overall health to determine the most suitable approach for your unique case.

Once you and Dr. Micallef have decided on the course of action, a personalized surgical plan will be developed. This plan takes into account factors such as implant size, type, and placement, as well as any necessary adjustments to achieve your desired outcome.
The surgery itself typically involves removing and replacing breast implants, addressing any issues, and reshaping the breast tissue as needed. The specifics of your procedure will depend on your goals and the initial implant type.
After your breast revision in San Antonio, you'll be monitored closely during the initial recovery phase. Some discomfort, swelling, and bruising are common, but these side effects are temporary and can be managed with prescribed medications. Dr. Micallef will provide detailed post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth recovery process.
Regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor your progress and ensure that your healing is proceeding as expected. Dr. Micallef and his team will be available to address any questions or concerns throughout your recovery.

It's important to note that the breast revision process is highly personalized, and the exact steps may vary depending on your individual needs and goals. Dr. Micallef's expertise and commitment to individualized care ensure that you'll receive the highest level of support throughout your breast revision journey.

Breast Revision Recovery

Recovery following your breast revision procedure with Dr. Micallef varies depending on the complexity of your surgery, but most patients can typically resume light activities within a week. Discomfort, swelling, and bruising are common during the initial stages, but these side effects gradually subside. You'll be prescribed pain medications to manage any discomfort.

Full recovery, where you can return to strenuous activities and exercises, may take several weeks. Dr. Micallef and his team will provide detailed post-operative instructions and closely monitor your progress to ensure a safe and smooth healing process. The final results of your breast revision will become increasingly apparent as your body heals.

Over time, any residual swelling will diminish, revealing your enhanced breast appearance. Many patients report increased satisfaction with the size, shape, and overall aesthetics of their breasts after the revision procedure. Dr. Micallef's expertise and attention to detail aim to provide you with natural-looking, harmonious results that align with your cosmetic goals.

It's important to remember that recovery experiences may vary among individuals, and the exact timeline and outcomes can be influenced by factors such as your unique anatomy, the complexity of your revision, and your adherence to post-operative instructions. Dr. Micallef and his team will be by your side throughout the healing process to support you and address any questions or concerns that may arise.

What if I want to remove my implants completely?

If you decide to remove your implants without replacement, your surgeon may recommend a breast lift (mastopexy) to restore shape and prevent sagging, especially if there has been significant stretching of the skin over time.

Can breast revision fix capsular contracture?

Yes, capsular contracture—a condition where scar tissue around the implant tightens and distorts the breast—can be treated with a capsulectomy (removal of scar tissue) or implant replacement to restore a soft, natural appearance.

Can a breast revision improve uneven nipples or asymmetry?

Yes, if your nipples appear uneven after breast augmentation, a revision can adjust implant positioning, correct asymmetry, or include a nipple repositioning procedure to achieve a more balanced look.
