Breast implant revision surgery is a procedure that corrects problems that developed following previous breast augmentation surgery. Breast implants are foreign bodies and are un-natural to the breast and over time, the implant require maintenance. Problems may include hardening from capsular contraction (concentric scarring), various types of mal-position, deflation or rupture, or the result of pregnancy. Breast revision surgery is also performed for elective reasons, such as a change in type, size or projection of the implant. This would include switching from saline to silicone breast implants, or vice versa. The objective of the breast implant revision is to restore the appearance of the breasts based on your specific needs. Dr. Delgado spend a significant amount of time in understanding your goals. Breast surgery which requires elective changes can wait until it fits a patient’s schedule and financial situation. Ruptured implants should be removed promptly. This minimizes further scarring, and in the case of silicone breast implants, the spread of silicone into the breast tissue.
