Breast Revision

Conveniently located to serve Orange County, CA

Breast revision surgery is performed to correct a complication or dissatisfaction resulting from a previous breast surgery. Even at the hands of the most skilled and qualified breast augmentation surgeon, the need for breast revision surgery may arise. Depending on the circumstances, breast revision surgery may involve breast implant removal and/or replacement. During your consultation for breast revision surgery, your surgeon will assess your concerns and determine the best technique to meet your needs.

Common Reasons for Breast Revision Surgery

The following are some of the most common reasons for breast revision surgery:

Bottoming Out

Bottoming out occurs when the breast implant descends below the breast crease after surgery, causing the breast to lose volume in the upper portion. This complication can also cause the nipple to appear too high on the breast. Your surgeon may perform a capsulorrhaphy, which involves sutures in the lower portion of the breast that will elevate the breast implant to the correct position.

Capsular Contracture

Capsular contracture is one of the most common breast augmentation complications. This complication occurs when the scar tissue surrounding the implant hardens excessively, squeezing the implant and producing discomfort and/or an unnatural breast appearance. This complication usually requires removal of the scar tissue. The implants themselves are usually removed and replaced at the same time.

Double Bubble Deformity

Double bubble deformity can occur when the breast implant slides below the breast crease and creates a second area of fullness, or “bubble,” on the bottom of the breast. To correct this complication, your surgeon may need to perform a breast lift as well as a secondary augmentation.

Malposition of Anatomical Implants

Anatomical implants, commonly called “teardrop-shaped” implants, are often desired because they have a very natural shape that creates more fullness in the lower portion of the breasts and taper upward. Although rare, these implants can cause the breasts to appear oblong or misshapen if they are placed incorrectly or rotate within the breast pocket. During breast revision surgery, the malposed implants may be replaced with round implants or placed back into their correct position and the pocket may be adjusted to prevent this movement.

Positioning Issues

When breast implants are placed too closely together, too far apart, or when they do not “settle” into the correct position once the final breast augmentation results develop, the solution may be to completely remove the implants and possibly replace them if the patient desires. Another option is to manipulate the tissues that support the implants to move them into the correct position.

Ruptured Implant

The rate of implant rupture has decreased significantly over the last few years. Rupture can occur with either silicone or saline implants. Rupture of a saline implant will result in an obvious deflation of the breast, whereas silicone implant rupture generally requires an MRI screening to detect. During breast revision surgery for a ruptured implant, your surgeon will remove the affected implant, irrigate the breast pocket, and replace the implant.

Size Change

The desire to change implant size is the most common reason for breast revision surgery. Usually, the patient desires to have larger breasts than her primary augmentation achieved. During your breast revision consultation, your surgeon will assess your chest width to determine if larger implants will safely and effectively achieve the look you desire.

After the birth of my first child and breastfeeding for seven months, I lost the equivalent of two cup sizes in breast tissue. I went to Dr Reichner because I was looking for someone who would really listen to my needs and concerns. As a professional woman, I felt it was imperative that I have a very natural looking result. Other doctors I spoke to tried to convince me to go bigger, but Dr Reichner really listened to me, and gave me a beautiful result. I love looking like my old self and having my clothes fit me the way they were meant to. Everyone in his office and surgery suite was caring and considerate. I would highly recommend his services.

Symmastia

Symmastia occurs when one or both breast implants are positioned too close to the midline of the chest and the two breasts become connected at the cleavage. This complication is characterized by the skin over the sternum tenting from one breast to the other or the two breast implants touching in the middle. The nipples may also point outward. During breast revision surgery for symmastia, the breast pocket is manipulated in order to correctly position the implants. The connection at the midline is also corrected, resulting in a more natural breast appearance.

Transformation Tuesday! 🪩 Can you guess what she had done before watching the end? 👀

This beautiful patient of ours had puffy under eyes which made her look more tired than she was.

Dr Reichner performed a Lower Blepharoplasty with Fat Transfer for a beautiful, natural result. She looks amazing - Less tired, younger, & HAPPIER! 🤗

We love Blephs because of how much of a difference they truly do make for our patients. Sagging eyelid skin & puffiness is a very common problem that gets worse as we age. Removing the excess skin & combining it with fat grafting gives a very elegant result.

Under eye fillers are becoming more and more common, but we only recommend doing under eye filler with a board certified plastic surgeon, as the under eyes are a very delicate area. So please, always do your research!

A Blepharoplasty with fat transfer is more permanent, and much more natural looking solution to fillers 💖

Happy Testimonial Tuesday!

This is one of our wonderful patients who has come to Dr. Reichner multiple times because she always has a positive experience.

In 2005 for a Breast Augmentation
In 2009 to replace her implants
Then in 2022 for an Explant (Implant Removal)

Explants are becoming more common for several reasons including the ones our patient listed in this video, such as

• lower back pain
• no longer wanting the implants
• capsular contracture
• desire for more natural looking breasts
• and more!

If you are considering removing your implants, contact our office today to schedule a consultation. We’d be happy to help you!

You learned all about RF Microneedling earlier this week… now it’s time to see the REAL RESULTS!! 🤩

Here is a patient who had a series of 3 RF Microneedling. After your 3rd treatment, the collagen in your skin is so stimulated that you can visibly see the reduction in wrinkles, & increase in elasticity, tightening, & lifting. This is why we recommend 3-6 treatments. Each treatment builds on itself, like going to the gym! 🏋️‍♀️

Lower face sagging & jowling is a common concern we see as we age. With RF Microneedling, this is no longer a concern for our patients! 🤗

Contact our office today for your personalized skin consultation 🤍 let’s help you look & feel beautiful, like your best self.
