Just like most other medical devices, breast implants are not meant to last forever. At some point down the road, you will most likely need a revision procedure to replace old implants. Breast augmentation revision surgery presents several challenges that are not present in your initial procedure, and it is important to work with a surgeon who has extensive experience performing them.
Common reasons for undergoing breast augmentation revision include:
- To correct issues associated with breast implant leak/rupture
- To replace saline implants with more natural looking and feeling silicone breast implants
- Dissatisfaction with the size or appearance of original breast implants
- To correct breast implant complications such as capsular contracture or symastia
In most cases, your initial results should last 15 years or more. Many women still enjoy their results 20-25 years after their breast augmentation was performed. However, if for any reason you feel it may be time for a revision procedure, Dr. Corey can discuss your options with you at an initial consultation.
