When is breast revision surgery needed?
Breast revision surgery may be needed for many reasons. For example, age and weight fluctuations cause sagging or drooping around the breast tissue. Pregnancy and breastfeeding can lead to asymmetry, loss of volume, or stretched-out skin. The implants may also need to be replaced due to wear and tear or complications such as rupture, leakage, implant rippling, or capsular contracture (when scar tissue around the implant becomes tight and causes discomfort).
Dr. Dauwe understands that each woman faces a unique journey when it comes to breast revision surgery. Our hope is to provide a safe environment where you can discuss each concern openly and without judgment. There are several advanced breast revision techniques available, and Dr. Dauwe will suggest the best possible approach for your case. Read on to learn more about the techniques available for breast revision.
Breast implant exchange
This technique involves removing your current implants and replacing them with new ones. Implant exchange may be recommended if you want a different size or type of implant, or if an existing implant has complications such as rupture or leakage. We can also manage sagging or asymmetry by placing the new implants in a higher position. Dr. Dauwe will work closely with you to choose the implant for your needs.
Breast implant removal
Sometimes, women choose to remove their implants after undergoing breast augmentation in Dallas. This could be due to personal preference or for medical reasons such as complications or discomfort. During the procedure, Dr. Dauwe will carefully remove the implants and any excess scar tissue. If desired, we can also perform a breast lift to enhance breast shape.
Breast lift
A breast lift is performed for women who want to address sagging or drooping breasts without changing their implants. This technique involves removing excess skin and tissue and lifting the breasts to a higher and more youthful position. A breast lift can also improve asymmetry or nipple placement. Dr. Dauwe will discuss the technique for your specific case, as there are different incision options available depending on the degree of correction needed.
Fat transfer
Fat transfer is a natural alternative to breast implants. This technique involves removing existing implants and harvesting fat cells from other areas of the body, such as the abdomen or thighs. That fat is then used to enhance breast shape, size, and symmetry. Fat transfer is ideal for women who are interested in subtle and natural-looking results after undergoing breast augmentation surgery.
