What is a breast implant revision?

A breast implant revision is a surgical procedure designed to correct or improve the outcome of a previous breast augmentation. Whether you're unhappy with the initial results or you've experienced complications like implant rupture, shifting, or capsular contracture (hardening of scar tissue around the implant), this procedure can help. It may involve Dr. Davila replacing or removing the implants, adjusting their size or shape, or addressing any issues with the surrounding tissue.

I've had problems with my breast implants. Should I consider a breast implant revision?

If you're having issues with your breast implants, such as discomfort, noticeable asymmetry, or changes in the appearance of your breasts, a breast implant revision could be worth considering. You might need revision surgery if you've had complications like a rupture, or capsular contracture, or if your implants have shifted out of position. 

Even if your implants are intact, you might want to opt for a revision to change the size or type of implant, especially if your aesthetic preferences have changed over time. Consult with Dr. Davila and the team. They can help you understand your options and whether this procedure is right for you.

What can I expect during a breast implant revision procedure?

Your breast implant revision is customized to your specific needs and goals. During the procedure, Dr. Davila may remove or replace your implants, adjust their position, or correct any complications you've experienced. 

He typically performs the surgery while you're under general anesthesia. Depending on the complexity of your case, the procedure can take anywhere from one to several hours. Dr. Davila assesses the surrounding tissue to make sure everything looks and feels healthy before closing the incisions.

What results can a breast implant revision offer?

A breast implant revision can help restore or improve the appearance of your breasts, creating a more balanced, natural, or enhanced look based on your goals. It can correct complications, alleviate discomfort, and provide you with greater confidence in your appearance. 

While healing times vary, most people experience significant improvements once recovery is complete, allowing you to enjoy the results for many years.
