When a patient is unsatisfied with the results of their breast augmentation surgery, they can have them corrected with the help of breast revision in Greenwich. This corrective breast surgery can be used to address a wide variety of issues after breast augmentation.
Implant Type Changes
Patients who are unhappy with the type of implant used in their primary breast augmentation can undergo breast revision to switch to another implant type.
Changing from saline implants to silicone implants is a common occurrence, since silicone breast implants are said to have a more natural look and feel. Saline breast implants are also heavier and firmer than silicone implants.
In instances where silicone breast implants have ruptured and the material has escaped the scar-tissue capsule, causing complications, patients may be more inclined to switch to saline implants.

Correcting Breast Asymmetry and Malposition
After a primary breast augmentation, some people feel like their breasts are not symmetrical enough. Breast revision can offer the size changes needed to achieve better symmetry.
The implants may also have been improperly positioned or may have shifted after the recovery process was complete. Revision surgery can correct implant malposition for a more pleasing appearance.
Size Changes
Patients often feel that their results do not have as much volume as they would like. These patients can benefit from replacing their silicone implants with larger implants. Saline implants can be filled with more saline during revision breast augmentation to achieve increased volume.
Fat Transfer vs. Implant Augmentation
Fat transfer breast augmentation is a form of natural breast enhancement that many women prefer. However, in some cases, this procedure does not provide the volume they were hoping for. Additionally, some transferred fat does not survive the grafting process, leaving patients with less volume. Breast revision can add implants to create the desired volume.
“She exceeded my expectations, she beats them all hands down..”
“Dr. Raskin is the best Dr. in the tri-state area. She is caring, professional and understanding. As a patient who has had prior procedures with NYC plastic surgeons, and prior disappointing results. I was recommended Dr Raskin through a friend. She exceeded my expectations, she beats them all hands down, as far as bedside manner, understanding my concerns, explaining the procedure, her skills as a surgeon, and the follow up with me post procedure. Dr Raskin is 10/10, one of the best, if not the best in the NYC area. She is a NYC Doctor, fortunately practicing in Greenwich, CT. Outstanding Dr!!! Thank you Dr. Raskin.”

Correcting Other Issues
Breast revision can also be used to correct a number of other issues after primary breast augmentation.
Capsular Contracture: Scar tissue naturally forms around breast implants. When this capsule of scar tissue is thicker than normal, it can contract around the implant, causing pain and stiffness to occur. This is known as capsular contracture. It can be resolved in a number of ways using breast revision.
Rippling: When the skin of the breast is thin and there is not a great deal of breast tissue present, the implant’s shell can cause ripples to form in the overlying skin. This rippling effect can be addressed with the help of revision breast surgery.
Breast Implant Ruptures/Leaks: When an implant’s silicone shell develops a tear, this is known as an implant rupture. When the material inside the shell escapes through a rupture, this is called a leak. In these cases, your implant must be removed with breast revision as soon as possible. In instances where the silicone escapes the silicone shell and the scar-tissue capsule, complications may occur, making removal especially vital.
Breast Revision Cost
The price of breast revision is dependent on a number of details, including the types of issues present and the techniques required to correct them. Additionally, revision breast surgery cost is impacted by the time needed to perform the surgery, the types of implants used, and many other factors.
