Breast revision surgery is performed to correct or improve the results of a previous breast procedure. While some patients seek revision for medical reasons, others do so due to changes in appearance or personal preferences. Recognizing the signs early helps patients address concerns before they worsen. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Bryson Richards provides breast revision to patients in Las Vegas, NV, and surrounding locations.
Noticeable Changes in Breast Shape or Position
If breasts appear uneven, sagging, or misshapen after prior surgery, revision may be appropriate. Changes can occur gradually due to aging, weight fluctuations, or tissue stretching.
Implants that sit too high, too low, or too far apart are common reasons patients seek evaluation.
Persistent Discomfort or Pain
Ongoing tightness, pressure, or pain in the breasts is not normal and should be evaluated. These symptoms may indicate capsular contracture or implant-related complications.
Implant Rupture or Deflation
Saline implants visibly deflate when ruptured. Silicone implant ruptures may be silent but still require surgical correction once identified.
Desire to Change Implant Size or Style
Some patients simply want a different look. Preferences can change over time, and revision surgery allows patients to downsize, upsize, or switch implant types.
Changes After Pregnancy or Weight Loss
Life events can significantly affect breast appearance even after successful augmentation. Revision surgery can restore balance and proportion.
When to Seek a Consultation
Any persistent concern with breast appearance or comfort warrants professional evaluation. Early consultation allows for more straightforward solutions and better outcomes.
