Implant Correction

Breast augmentation is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures worldwide, offering many patients the opportunity to enhance their physical appearance and boost their self confidence. Unfortunately, some breast augmentation patients may experience postoperative complications or general dissatisfaction with their results over time, leading them to consider implant correction surgery. At Michigan Plastic Surgery, we offer several options for breast implant revision surgery using the latest surgical techniques and implants.

Why Consider Implant Correction Surgery? 

Aesthetic Dissatisfaction: Over time, personal preferences may change. Some patients may wish to adjust the size, shape, or type of implants to better suit their current body image or lifestyle. We consider each patient’s goals and desires to create personalized procedures.

Complications: Although breast augmentation surgery is generally safe, especially with recent medical advancements, complications and negative side effects are still possible. Common complications of breast augmentation include capsular contracture (hardening of the scar tissue around the implant), implant rupture or leakage, asymmetry, and implant displacement. These issues can cause discomfort and/or an unnatural appearance.

Aging and Weight Fluctuations: Natural changes in the body due to aging, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations can affect the appearance of breast implants that some patients may wish to correct.

Your Breast Implant Correction Options

Fortunately, many advances have been made in cosmetic breast surgery that have greatly improved the results of revision surgery. Common revision techniques include:

1. Implant Replacement: Replace old breast implants with new, more advanced styles
2. Capsulectomy or Capsulotomy: Surgically removing or releasing the scar tissue around the implant to relieve pain from capsular contracture and improve the breast shape
3. Implant Repositioning: reshaping the breast implant pocket to reposition the implants and correct displacement issues such as bottoming out
4. Fat Grafting: Using the patient’s own fat to enhance the natural breast tissue around the implant

Dr. Colony is a recognized expert in both reconstructive and cosmetic breast surgery. He is therefore confident with all the techniques and makes them available to his patients with breast implant removal or replacement.
