Breast Revision Before & After

What To Expect During Your Breast Revision Surgery

Breast revision surgery is a procedure that involves removing or replacing breast implants to address cosmetic or medical issues that have arisen after a previous breast augmentation surgery. Dr. Cappuccino will work closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan based on your needs and concerns. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and can take anywhere from one to several hours, depending on the extent of the surgery.

Dr. Cappuccino will make incisions to access the breast implants during the procedure. Depending on your specific goals and needs, he may remove or replace the implants with new ones. Sometimes, he may also need to perform a breast lift or other procedures to achieve the desired results. Once the procedure is complete, the incisions will be closed with sutures, and you will be taken to a recovery area to begin the healing process.

The Recovery Process

The recovery process after breast revision surgery can vary depending on the extent of the procedure and the patient's healing process. However, most patients can expect to experience some discomfort, swelling, and bruising in the days and weeks following surgery. Dr. Cappuccino will provide specific post-operative instructions to help you manage your recovery and ensure the best possible outcome.

It is important to avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for several weeks after surgery to allow your body to heal correctly. You may also need to wear a compression garment or surgical bra for some time to help reduce swelling and support your breasts during the healing process.

Results for Breast Revision

The results of breast revision surgery can be significant and long-lasting, helping patients achieve their desired look and restore confidence in their appearance. Whether the procedure addresses cosmetic or medical issues, patients can expect improvements in their breasts' size, shape, and position.

Dr. Cappuccino's personalized approach ensures that each patient's unique concerns and goals are considered, resulting in outcomes tailored to their needs. With the support and guidance of Dr. Cappuccino and his team, patients can achieve the results they desire and feel more confident in their bodies.

Resolving Capsular Contracture and Other Issues

When a breast implant is placed, the body naturally forms a tissue capsule around the object. This is a normal part of the body’s healing process, but it can sometimes lead to a complication known as capsular contracture.

Sometimes, this tissue capsule can tighten and harden around the implant. This distorts the appearance of the breast and can also become quite uncomfortable for the patient if not addressed quickly enough.

Other issues—such as rippling, breakage, leakage, and so forth—can also be effectively addressed by a breast revision. Unlike an implant removal procedure, your implants will be replaced and your results preserved.
