Patients may desire a revision of a previous breast augmentation for a variety of reasons. Some of the more common reasons for seeking a revision of your original breast augmentation surgery are poorly positioned breast implants (i.e. implants that are too low or too high on your chest), capsular contracture (i.e. firmness of your breast implants), breast asymmetry, excessive rippling visible through the skin, replacement of a deflated implant, exchange to a different size breast implant or removal of unwanted implants for whatever reason. As an experienced Westchester County breast implant revision surgeon, Dr. Greenwald has performed many of these secondary or revision breast augmentation surgeries and will discuss your options.
It is important to keep in mind that revision or secondary breast augmentation surgery is far more difficult than primary (ie first time) breast augmentation surgery. Dr. Greenwald will show numerous photos of patients who presented with similar problems and concerns to you so you will have an idea of the results you may expect prior to surgery.
